SIGNAL · LIVETHE INTELLIGENCE IS AT SOURCE
Why we created this01

Manufacturing has
been sold snakeoil.

For two decades the floor has been pitched dashboards, digital twins and platforms built by people who never ran a shift. They looked good in a boardroom and changed nothing where the parts actually get made.

We started the Factory Intelligence Cohort to do the opposite. It is a national calling: take the best industrial engineers in the world, the people who built this at Palantir, ABB, Siemens and Volvo, pair them with real agents, and put both on your factory floor. Working next to your team, on the lines that matter, earning their place in weeks.

This is the next generation of how humans and machines run a factory together. We are building it one plant at a time.

How the program works02
  1. 01

    We review your operation

    We assess your plant against the KPIs that actually move on the floor: cycles, bottlenecks, stoppages, downtime, quality.

  2. 02

    We identify the right problem

    With your plant and ops team, we pinpoint where our agents can create measurable impact, and agree on the first use case.

  3. 03

    We build the business caseon us

    You give us read-only remote access. We validate the data, quantify the opportunity, assess fit, and come back with a project plan. No cost to you.

  4. 04

    We deploy in four weeks

    We connect to your existing systems and go live on the floor, with minimal burden on your team.

  5. 05

    An engineer comes on-site

    One to two days on your floor between weeks 2 and 4. We observe, tune with your team, and validate the handoff in the real environment.

  6. 06

    You see value, then you decide

    After four weeks on one plant you know exactly what the system delivers. You choose how to move forward.

What we're looking for03
  • You're tired of antiquated vendors and tools.
  • You build complex parts where a defect is expensive.
  • You already have the machines and the data.
  • You move fast when something works.

Two places are open in the H2 2026 cohort. We take three to five enterprises every 90 days, by referral, and prequalify hard before anyone joins. We go deep, not wide.
