Vendor-agnostic AI that connects to your existing equipment and systems — no new hardware, no data science team. Measurable ROI from your first 30-day diagnostic.
AI-powered industrial intelligence for mid-market manufacturers in food, pharma, CPG, and manufacturing.
No rip-and-replace. No $2M system integrator. AI that connects to what you already have and starts delivering value immediately.
We connect to your existing data infrastructure — PLCs, historians, ERP, MES — and surface the highest-impact AI opportunities on your plant floor. No commitment required.
Zero RiskOur vendor-agnostic platform integrates with Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider, or mixed-vendor environments. Average deployment: 18 days. Industry average: 12–18 months.
No New HardwareTrack OEE improvements, defect reduction, and downtime prevention in real time. Add use cases and facilities as you grow — all from a single platform.
Continuous ROIThe major automation vendors are chasing Fortune 500 giants. AIC is purpose-built for $100M–$500M manufacturers who need results fast, without the overhead.
Unlike Rockwell+Microsoft, Siemens+NVIDIA, or Schneider+AVEVA — AIC doesn't force a platform migration. We work with your existing stack and unify signals across vendors.
Pre-built industrial models connect to your equipment out of the box. No new servers, no new network architecture, no costly upgrades before you see a single result.
Direct integration with your historian, PLC, and MES data. Use cases include predictive maintenance, OEE optimization, quality deviation detection, and yield improvement.
Built for regulated environments. AIC supports continuous process verification, batch deviation detection, and audit-ready documentation for food and pharma manufacturers.
How AIC stacks up against the major automation vendor AI stacks for mid-market manufacturers.
