AI Agents for Food Safety & Throughput

Keep lines running, meet sanitation standards, and cut waste with maintenance copilots that understand CIP, temperature control, and changeovers.

Critical Assets

Production, refrigeration, sanitation, quality

Processing

Processing Equipment

Mixers, grinders, ovens, and pasteurizers. Agents provide condition insights, cycle tracking, and early warnings for mechanical wear and temperature deviations.

Refrigeration

Refrigeration Systems

Chillers, freezers, and cold storage units. Agents provide continuous temperature monitoring with automated alarms for excursions that risk product safety.

Cleaning systems

Cleaning Systems (CIP)

CIP skids and sanitization stations. Agents orchestrate cleaning cycles, verify completion, and manage allergen control protocols between production runs.

Top Maintenance Challenges

Aggressive Cleaning & Sanitation

CIP (Clean-in-Place) cycles use caustic chemicals and high-pressure washdowns that destroy standard sensors and electronics. Equipment must be IP69K rated, and maintenance must account for the corrosive impact of daily sanitation routines.

Regulatory Documentation Overload

FDA 21 CFR Part 117, HACCP plans, FSMA requirements, and third-party audits (SQF, BRC, FSSC 22000) demand meticulous maintenance records. Most plants still rely on paper logs, creating audit gaps and recall risk.

Traceability Under Pressure

When a contamination incident occurs, regulators require rapid identification of which equipment was involved, when it was last maintained, and by whom. Maintenance history must link directly to production batches - a capability most paper-based systems lack entirely.

What Our AI Agents Do

Sanitation & Food Safety

Plan and record CIP cycles, verify sanitization, and manage allergen risks with automated checks and logs.

  • CIP cycle orchestration & verification
  • Allergen control procedures
  • FSMA/HACCP record generation

Environmental & Production Integration

Monitor temperatures and line conditions and align maintenance to production/cleaning windows.

  • Continuous temp/humidity logging
  • Maintenance during changeovers/cleaning
  • Standardized changeover SOPs
