Overview
How each tool is described
Infinite Uptime
What is Infinite Uptime?
Infinite Uptime provides PlantOS™, a prescriptive AI platform for heavy manufacturing that combines equipment sensing, existing plant-system data, process context, and equipment-specific models to identify developing faults and prescribe maintenance actions.
- Prescriptive maintenance: PlantOS analyzes mechanical signals such as vibration and temperature alongside live process conditions including load, speed, pressure, airflow, and production variables. Instead of issuing only an anomaly alert, it can identify the component or fault involved, explain the contributing condition, recommend a corrective action, and specify when the work should be completed.
- Closed-loop validation: each prescription is delivered into an operator workflow for action, digital sign-off, and outcome validation. PlantOS records whether the intervention resolved the issue and feeds validated outcomes back into its models, forming what Infinite Uptime calls the 99% Trust Loop.
- Plant-wide coverage: Infinite Uptime separates monitoring by equipment criticality. AI Shields target complex production-critical equipment such as kilns, mills, cranes, furnaces, mixers, and dryers; Critical Equipment Reliability uses continuous wired piezoelectric sensing; Standard Equipment Reliability uses wired or wireless MEMS sensors; and Non-Critical Equipment Monitoring uses self-powered InfiSense 3XT sensors for balance-of-plant assets. PlantOS can also incorporate data from existing PLCs, DCS historians, and installed sensors rather than requiring wholesale replacement of plant infrastructure.
- Commercial and delivery model: PlantOS is delivered as Production Outcomes as a Service rather than as a conventional standalone software license. Infinite Uptime combines sensing, the PlantOS AI layer, remote monitoring, domain expertise, and operator-validation workflows in an OpEx-oriented model, with solution scope determined by asset criticality, sensing requirements, existing plant data, and targeted reliability outcomes.
Infinite Uptime is most relevant to heavy manufacturers that want maintenance teams to receive specific, validated corrective actions rather than condition-monitoring alerts that still require engineers to diagnose the fault and decide the next step.
Augury
What is Augury?
Augury is an industrial AI platform for manufacturers that combines machine-condition monitoring, prescriptive diagnostics, process optimization, and role-based AI agents. Its current Industrial AI Workforce connects machine and operational data to help reliability, maintenance, and operations teams identify risks, improve production performance, and move from diagnosis toward approved actions.
- Machine health: Augury’s Machine Health uses continuously connected industrial sensors to capture condition data such as vibration, temperature, and magnetic signals. AI diagnostics identify anomalies, faults, and severity, while Augury reliability experts validate important findings and provide guidance on what is failing, when action is needed, and what maintenance teams should do next.
- Process optimization: Process Health analyzes production data to identify root causes of inefficiencies and provides real-time recommendations to operators and engineers. Teams can adjust process controls and setpoints to pursue objectives such as higher throughput and yield while reducing waste, energy consumption, and process losses.
- Implementation checks: manufacturers should assess which assets justify continuous monitoring, sensor and connectivity requirements, production-data integrations, CMMS and maintenance workflows, process-data availability, and adoption by reliability, maintenance, and operations teams. Augury can also integrate with systems including CMMS, EAM, SCADA, and APM platforms.
- Commercial considerations: Machine Health is offered as a turnkey annual service billed per machine, per year. Augury states that the fee includes sensors, software, connectivity, installation, support, updates, and unlimited diagnostics rather than requiring customers to purchase the monitoring hardware separately.
Augury is particularly relevant to manufacturers that want predictive maintenance and process optimization connected to prescriptive guidance and industrial AI workflows rather than relying only on condition alerts or standalone analytics.
