Ask Your Factory a Question,Get an Answer in Seconds

Type a question about your facility and get answers grounded in real sensor data. Sandhed's AI assistant queries your equipment metrics, alerts, and maintenance records to give you plain-language answers instead of dashboards to decipher.

The Problem

Where Things Break Down

Your facility generates thousands of data points every hour, but turning that data into answers still requires opening multiple dashboards, cross-referencing timestamps, and knowing which system holds the information you need. When a shift supervisor asks 'which machines ran hot last night?' the answer takes 15 minutes of manual data pulls instead of 15 seconds. The data exists. The problem is getting to it fast enough to act on it.

Getting answers from your data takes too long

A simple question like 'which machines had the most downtime last shift?' requires opening a SCADA system, exporting data, filtering by time range, and manually comparing values. By the time you have the answer, the shift has moved on.

15-30 minutes per data query for shift-level questions

Alerts pile up without context

You receive dozens of alerts per day but each one requires separate investigation. Was this threshold breach a one-time spike or part of a trend? Is the affected machine near other equipment that is also showing problems? Answering these questions means switching between systems.

60% of alert investigation time spent gathering context

Institutional knowledge leaves with experienced operators

Your senior operators know which machines tend to fail together, which sensors to check first, and which readings are normal for each shift. When they retire or change roles, that knowledge disappears. New staff face a wall of dashboards with no guide.

6-12 months for new operators to reach full situational awareness

Our Approach

What Sandhed Does Differently

Sandhed's AI Co-Pilot is available in your 3D floor plan view and on individual asset detail pages. When you ask 'which machines had warnings this week?' the AI queries your sensor data, alert history, and maintenance records, then returns a structured answer with specific machine names, metric values, and timestamps. It builds a profile of your facility and only uses tools relevant to your active integrations. Answers link directly to the machines and data they reference so you can verify anything with one click.

Natural Language Queries

Ask questions in plain language: 'Which machines ran hot last shift?' 'Are any work orders overdue?' 'What happened on Line 3 yesterday?' The AI translates your question into the right data queries.

Grounded in Real Data

Every answer comes with specific machine names, metric values, and timestamps pulled from your actual sensor data and maintenance records. No generic advice. No guessing.

Context-Aware Answers

The AI knows your floor plan layout, which equipment you have, what sensors are connected, and what integrations are active. It tailors answers to your specific facility instead of giving generic responses. It works from the main floor plan view and from individual asset detail pages, adjusting its scope to whatever you are looking at.

Direct Links to Data

Answers include clickable links that navigate to the referenced machines, pull up the relevant metric history, or jump to the specific alert. Verify any answer with one click.

How to Get Real-Time Machine Data Without a 6-Month Integration Project

Traditional machine data integration projects take 4-6 months because they try to connect every system to every other system. The faster approach is read-only data collection through edge gateways that translate machine protocols into a common format without modifying the machine controllers. You can go from zero to first data point in days, not months.

How to Monitor a Factory Floor in Real Time

Real-time factory monitoring means having sensor data from machines, environment, and process parameters available within seconds, not hours. It starts with choosing the right sensors for your top failure modes, runs through an edge-to-cloud architecture that handles the data volume, and works only if the alert design respects your operators' attention.
