Observe
Collect structured events, measurements, states, and evidence from factory assets.
Private development preview
The intelligence layer between factory systems.
The TopX Factory Fabric is being designed to let machines, vision systems, MES, and AI agents share production context—and coordinate action—without discarding existing infrastructure.

Design thesis
Connect what exists. Reason over context. Act with control.
The fabric is not intended to be another isolated dashboard. It is a governed coordination layer that respects existing OT boundaries and manufacturing standards.
Reason
Use contextual AI agents to interpret exceptions, correlate evidence, and recommend actions.
Govern
Control what an agent can see, recommend, approve, or execute—with a complete audit trail.
Reference architecture
Five layers. One production context.
Each layer has a clear responsibility so AI does not become tightly coupled to a camera, PLC, database, or vendor-specific interface.

Reasoning at the edge of operations
AI that understands production context—not just prompts.
Nemotron models are being evaluated as the reasoning foundation for specialized agents. The goal is not unrestricted autonomy. It is faster, evidence-backed decisions inside explicit operational limits.
- Explain inspection and process exceptions
- Correlate signals across machines and systems
- Recommend diagnostics using available evidence
- Escalate consequential actions to a human
