Live Demo · Agent 01 · Manufacturing

Walk into a morning that is already built.

You are the plant ops manager at Calder Components. The Exception Scout demo lets you work a day beside a watcher. This is the other tempo an agent can run: The Shift Reporter did its work at 05:04, while the plant slept. What is waiting for you is a finished report, twenty minutes before stand-up.

What moved, and why I think so
Flag 01 · Line 2 scrap, station 4 confidence 84%

Scrap tripled after 02:10, and the pattern is mechanical, not human: burr height climbing run over run on station 4 only, both shifts, both operators. The signature matches die wear on Die 4. Suggest a pull and inspection, about 40 planned minutes.

Flag 02 · Line 3 micro-stops confidence 77%

13 stops under four minutes, none logged by hand, all with the feeder-jam signature at the bowl. Worth a tech visit. Not urgent at current takt, but it is quietly eating cycle time.

Worth saying out loud

Line 1 ran its best night in 60 days. Same crew as the Tuesday dip. The difference was the die change at 19:40, which is one more point for flag 01.

Wednesday, 06:40

The report has been waiting since 05:04.

This used to be your first ninety minutes: pull the MES export, chase the scrap log, build the picture, walk in late. The agent did the reading while the plant slept.

Stand-up is at 07:00. Read what it built, question it, and pick the one thing that leads the meeting. The priority is yours. It always is.

Simulated plant, real anatomy. Calder Components is invented and the numbers are illustrative. The 05:00 run, the provenance behind every figure, the per-run cap and where the human sits are exactly how the production build is wired.

Behind the Morning

Built while the plant slept.

Same six-step loop as every agent we deploy, run at a different tempo. No console to watch, no alert to answer: the trigger fired at 05:00, the loop ran once, and the output was a finished document with its homework attached.

01Trigger
what wakes it. A clock, a webhook, an inbox. Never a human babysitter.
a 05:00 cron. Nobody woke it, and nobody had to remember it.
02Read
your systems, read-only. It looks before it ever touches.
the overnight MES export, the schedule, the scrap log. 11 files.
03Think
cheap rules first, the model only on what moved. Cost lives here.
reconcile against plan, compare 30 nights of baseline, flag the two things that moved.
04Act
one bounded move inside a written scope. Never beyond.
one finished report, two flags, one good word. Posted 05:04.
05Human
the judgment call, held by one named owner. The gate, not the bottleneck.
your first move at 07:00. The report proposes. Stand-up disposes.
06Log
every step on the record from day one. Reviews run on facts.
every number opens to its source rows. You clicked one yourself.
The Range

Three tempos an agent can run.

Not every agent is an alarm. The loop is the same six steps every time; what changes is when it fires and what lands in front of a person. These are the three tempos we deploy most, and you can drive two of them right now.

Tempo 01
lives in the minutes

The Watcher

Runs all day on a short clock, says nothing for hours, and speaks the moment one load goes sideways. You answer with a judgment call. The Exception Scout on our Logistics desk is one.

Work a shift with it

Tempo 02
lives in the night

The Reporter

Runs once, before you arrive, and hands you a finished artifact with its homework attached. No alert to answer. Your day simply starts at the decision instead of the reading. You just drove it.

Tempo 03
lives in the backlog

The Queue-worker

Runs on every item that lands: sorts it, drafts the next step, and keeps the pile at zero. You sign the plan. The Maintenance Triager on this page is one, and its demo is next in line.

Every tempo above is an example build. Which one earns a seat on your floor first is exactly what the Readiness Map answers.

The Real Numbers

Enough simulations. Get your number.

Every number in that report is an estimate, because every plant is different. The Readiness Map makes it exact: your workflows, your multipliers, your first agents, with names and owners.
