Advisor
Ask your production data a question. Get a real answer.
Stop waiting on a custom report or hunting through dashboards. Ask about production in plain language, and Advisor answers from your own data as a number, a chart, or a sortable table, then points you to where to dig in. Advisor is enabled for sale and support today.

Knowledge graph
Advisor can answer from your own manuals and SOPs.
Bring in machine manuals, SOPs and any documentation about your process. Advisor connects what it sees in your production data to those documents, and can say how an issue could be fixed, citing the document it used.

See it in action
Real questions, answered from real production data.
These are actual Advisor answers, run against real OEE IntelliSuite production data: the counts, states, downtime, reasons, jobs, and OEE from Vorne XL devices, plus the SQL and other sources the suite already ingests. Depending on the question, Advisor replies as text, a chart, or a sortable table.
Built to be trusted
The honest version of an AI on your floor.
Advisor is built around traceable, data-grounded answers for production questions.
Read-only by design
Every query runs read-only against your production database and returns an answer without making database changes.
Grounded in your data
Answers are built from the rows your production data returned. When a question needs more data, Advisor says so clearly.
It shows its work
Answers stay tied to the query it ran and the rows it returned, so each number stays traceable to source data.
It stays on the floor
Advisor answers production questions: OEE, downtime, quality, jobs, and parts. It declines off-topic and people-comparison questions.
How it works
From a question to an answer, in three steps.
You ask in plain language
"Why did Line 7 drop yesterday?" Ask the way supervisors already talk about the floor.
Advisor queries your data
It writes a read-only query against your production database and runs it, then reads the rows that come back.
You get the answer in context
A number, a chart, or a table, with the short story of what changed and what is worth a closer look.
