What Happens on Your Shopfloor

Three failure modes every multi-site operator recognizes.

The Pattern Behind All Three

Why Downtime is a Knowledge Problem

Your operating knowledge isn't missing. It's unreachable.

Manufacturing plants already have the knowledge, but it's scattered across systems, buried in Excel sheets, locked inside manuals of 1000 pages, and is in the heads of experienced technicians.

Forcing technicians to waste precious time “searching for the fix” when every minute of downtime matters.

Knowledge gaps are the leading cause

25-35%

The rest is spent searching for information

70%

Of critical knowledge is undocumented

Walks out the door when veterans retire

Dovient solves the knowledge problem - so your team can solve the equipment problem faster.

Dovient lays the foundation with your plant knowledge

Turn expert know-how into a plant knowledge base

Dovient institutionalizes your expert tacit knowledge, before it walks out the door.

Plant documents

SOPs, OEM manuals, work-order history, equipment specs.

Live SCADA & IoT data

Real-time machine and sensor signals from the floor.

Tacit Knowledge

The undocumented expert know-how your seniors built over years.

unified into

One verified knowledge layer

Connects knowledge with workflows

Dovient, an AI layer on top of your existing systems

Ties your plant knowledge to your maintenance & operational workflows, and gives your team safe AI guidance.

1

Digitises all your plant knowledge

Dovient unifies plant documents, live SCADA, IoT data, and most importantly tacit knowledge, your experts' know-how, into one verified knowledge layer.

2

Ties it to your workflows

Connects that knowledge to your maintenance, operations, reliability and safety workflows by integrating with your existing systems.

3

Gives your team safe AI assistance

Driving faster, safer and more consistent execution across your plant maintenance operations through Dovient's AI Copilot.

Outcome from day one of deployment

Faster Repairs

Guide every breakdown with verified diagnosis and repair steps. The moment a line stops, the technician gets the likely cause and the exact fix for this machine, pulled from your own manuals and how your veterans fixed it last time. No searching, no guessing.

30–40%lower MTTR across initial deployments

Standardize Work Across Shifts

Turn your experts' know-how into illustrated, step-by-step SOPs in every operator's language. The same approved procedure on every line, every shift, every site.

Standardized SOP: shut down the CNC latheStandardized SOP: check voltageStandardized SOP: lubrication points
MissingDots Verification

The AI that refuses to guess.

Generic AI generates fluent answers from whatever it was trained on, with no built-in way to know when it lacks context. That's why generic AI hallucinates in manufacturing.

MissingDots closes that gap. Before any answer reaches your team, it checks whether your plant's combined knowledge contains enough context to answer with confidence. If it doesn't, it refuses to guess. It surfaces what's missing and asks for it instead.

Honest uncertainty over fabricated confidence.
