DataPilot

Every signal the plant produces, in one place, live and historical.

How it works

How a reading becomes an action A sensor reading and an operator's hand-entered reading both enter one operating record. From that record an alarm reaches a phone, a work order opens against the right asset, reports are written, and KoPilot adjusts setpoints. Process sensor every few seconds Operator's reading typed on a phone One operating record same equipment, same production batch, same clock Alarm on a phone Work order opens Report is written KoPilot adjusts setpoints both are the same shape to the platform
A historian never sees the operator's reading, and a maintenance system never sees the trend. Holding both makes everything to the right of the record possible.

Everything on this page is also reachable over our API, including from the AI tools your team already uses, so Claude or ChatGPT can query the same record directly. We send the reference on request.

The alert history filtered to one hammermill, showing three alerts across five days with their severity, status, responder and explanation.
One machine searched out of the alert history. Three rules fired across five days at two severities, and the muted row names who muted it and why, so a rule nobody trusts is visible rather than quietly ignored.

What it takes over from

  • The control-room panel
  • Screenshots sent over messaging apps
  • Paper clipboards and shift logbooks
  • Spreadsheets nobody maintains
  • A standalone historian

Pays for itself by

Replacing the paper log, the messaging-app screenshot, and the week of trend history that used to vanish. Catching a drift before it becomes a trip.

The number a buyer checks: Unplanned downtime avoided, and hours a week not spent assembling reports.

What DataPilot includes

DataPilot is the plant's shared operational record. It brings together data from machines, people and production activities, organized around the same equipment and timeline.

Process and energy data
Data from your existing PLCs, sensors, meters and control systems, collected at the frequency they already provide it.
Operator-entered data
Shift logs, quality checks, moisture readings, downtime notes and other observations entered directly from a phone or workstation.
Photographs
Images of equipment condition, leaks, finished products or other events, attached to the relevant equipment and time.
Production batches
Runs, campaigns, crop cycles or other production periods that connect operational data to what was being produced.
Alarms and notifications
Rules that notify the right people when a value or condition needs attention.

Why machine data and operator notes belong together

Most plants already collect sensor data. The harder part is connecting it with what operators observe and record during the day. DataPilot keeps both in one operational record, linked to the same equipment and timeline.

An alarm can fire on a number a person typed
Not only on a sensor. A moisture reading from the shift log can raise the same alert a meter would.
A historian sees the machines. A maintenance system sees the assets.
DataPilot sees both, so it can show what the equipment was doing, what operators observed, and what happened next.
One of the two things AI Advisory needs
With Maintenance Management beside it, a developing trend can open a work order, and a weekly report can explain what changed using both sensor data and operator notes. What AI Advisory does with it.

What you can stop doing. Standing at a control panel just to read a value. Sending screenshots of charts through group chats. Maintaining separate spreadsheets because historical data is difficult to access. Asking several people to reconstruct what happened during a previous shift. DataPilot keeps that information in one place, tied to the equipment and time it belongs to.

Getting your data into your own tools

Everything stored in DataPilot can be accessed through our API, including process trends, operator readings, production batches, alarms and maintenance records, all linked to the same equipment and timeline.

That also makes the data available to AI tools your team already uses. Your team could ask ChatGPT or Claude what changed during the night shift, compare operating conditions between production runs, or retrieve maintenance costs by asset without first exporting data to a spreadsheet.

AI answers are only as useful as the information available to them. Giving AI access to a complete operational record makes those answers grounded in what actually happened at the plant. API documentation is available on request.

Your data, in your own toolsEverything in DataPilot is reachable over the API: trends, operator readings, production batches, alarms and maintenance records. Your BI tools, your own systems and AI assistants such as ChatGPT or Claude read the same record.DataPilottrends, readings, batches,alarms, maintenance recordsThe Koidra APIYour BI and spreadsheetsChatGPT, Claude, your own AIasking what changed on the night shiftYour own systems
The record is yours. The API is how it leaves, and the AI tools your team already uses are one of the places it goes.

Where this sits

Two ways into one platform, a layer that needs both, and control on top. Each is a complete product with its own payback. How the pieces fit.

  1. Start here

    Maintenance Management

    The system decides what maintenance is due, dispatches it, and tracks what it cost.

  2. Start here

    DataPilot

    Every signal the plant produces, in one place, live and historical.

  3. Comes with both

    AI Advisory

    Reports on what changed, answers in plain language, what to change to move the KPIs you set, and predictive maintenance: failures seen before they arrive.

  4. Autonomous control

    KoPilot

    Closed-loop control of the process, minute by minute, with no human at the panel.

Add Maintenance Management and AI Advisory becomes available. It needs both, and it comes with both.
