Turn Manuals into Insights with AI Document Analysis (AI Document Analysis Features Spotlight)

Your plant runs on pages. When those pages live in binders and shared drives, every repair starts with a search party. AI Document Analysis puts the exact step and diagram in a tech’s hand, converting search time to recovery and production. Static manuals and scattered PDFs slow repairs and make consistency fragile. Maintenance teams consistently lose time hunting for the right page, only to find conflicting versions or notes that never made it back into the file. But leading plants and manager

Boost Wrench Time with AI SOPs: Faster Fixes, Fewer Delays

Wrench time is where reliability is won. AI SOPs put the right steps in a technician’s hands at the moment of work, so fixes start sooner and finish right. On most floors, procedures live in too many places and change without a clear trail. Static or scattered SOPs drift between shifts, approvals sit in inboxes, and the real method survives as tribal know-how. That is when stop-and-ask moments multiply, handoffs slow, and the backlog grows. The cost isn’t only the delay. It is a steady loss of

Why Pay More for the Same Wrench? Tractian Beats Top CMMS Providers by 15%

Every CMMS promises the same basics: work orders, mobile app, preventive maintenance, parts management, and now AI. Those are the table stakes.

Get Every Repair Right with AI SOPs + Document Analysis

Turn Rookies into Pros with AI SOPs + Document Analysis

A new hire steps onto the floor and finds three versions of the same procedure. One lives in a vendor PDF. One is a photo of a whiteboard. One is a hand-scribbled note in a binder. Senior techs are busy and can’t hand-hold the rookie. Questions pile up, first-time fixes fail, and downtime demands attention in the form of rework.  With 74% of companies reporting a shortage of skilled workers, teams are filling gaps with rookies who need clear guidance at the machine, not after the fact. Shadow t

Fix It Fast, Fix It Right with AI SOPs + Document Analysis

Agile maintenance teams plan in short cycles, set clear sprint goals, and adjust quickly when priorities shift. That cadence breaks when diagnosis drags. Complex troubleshooting slows standups, pushes PMs off the calendar, and keeps work-in-progress stuck while crews wait for the next best step.  If the goal is rapid, repeatable execution, speed to understanding the problem matters as much as speed with the wrench. Unplanned downtime costs manufacturers roughly $50 billion per year. However, pr
