Nightshift for Industrial Ops
Eyes on the line, hands off the controls.
A reliability copilot is only as good as the historian, MES, ERP, maintenance systems and other data it can reach. Agents gain a complete view of plant performance while remaining isolated from control systems, ensuring they can provide actionable intelligence without introducing operational risk.
See it work
Find the $4.2M no dashboard could.
An agent connects Nightshift over MCP and attributes Q3 scrap and rework across SAP, Siemens, Rockwell, and Oracle, down to the line and supplier lot.
The boundary
Reads cross. Writes stop.
An agent reads the line through the catalog. The path that moves a machine is not exposed at all, so a wrong write is not a risk you have to catch, it is a thing that cannot happen.
What agents do
Reliability agents that earn their access.
Predict the failure
Read historian tags and work-order history to flag the asset about to fail, without ever touching the controls.
Close the work order
Draft and update maintenance work orders against the MES, with the technician PII column never in scope.
Answer the floor
A plant copilot that answers from live line data, scoped to the sites a crew actually runs.
The control boundary
Agents live above the line.
The plant runs in layers. Nightshift exposes the upper ones as governed reads and leaves the layers that move equipment unreachable. The boundary is the catalog itself, not a firewall rule you hope holds.
Policy that knows the plant
Scope to a site, hide a column, gate a write.
Policy reads like an operating procedure. Limit an agent to two sites, drop the technician PII column, and route any write to a human on the floor. It compiles into every endpoint, so there is no way around it.
- Allow and deny by site, asset, or work-order type
- Mask PII and safety-sensitive fields
- Writes wake an approver on their phone

Questions the plant asks
The questions we get on the floor.
- Can an agent ever write to a machine?
- No. The control path is not in the catalog, so a write to a PLC or SCADA system is not something policy has to catch, it is a thing that cannot be requested.
- Do you copy our historian?
- No. Nightshift reads live through a connector. Tags and work orders stay in your systems; we route access, we do not warehouse it.
- How do we prove who saw what?
- Every request is on the record: the identity, the source, what policy did, and what came back, queryable and exportable to your system of record.
Put an agent on your plant data, safely.
Start free, connect a historian or MES, and watch governed reads flow to your agent in minutes. Add write approvals when you are ready.
