We run a pilot on your machines and prove the performance gain for free.

We connect DataQI to a subset of your machines, capture real floor data, analyse the bottlenecks and show you exactly where the capacity is going. There is no fee for the pilot. What it does need from your side is set out plainly below.

How the pilot runs.

We pick a subset of your machines or one defined process. We capture live data, analyse the performance bottlenecks and show your team where output is being lost and how to recover it. You see the evidence before you pay anything.

  1. 01

    Name an owner and a subset of machines

    A named Transformation Champion owns the result and can bring the right people into the room. Together we choose one cell, line or set of manual benches where the loss actually sits.

  2. 02

    Capture live floor data

    Connect DataQI using existing read-only signals, PLC feeds or non-invasive sensors. Any interruption to production is identified and agreed in the scope, not assumed away.

  3. 03

    Deep data analysis

    DataQI automatically standardises state changes and sensor data to separate true root causes from superficial symptoms.

  4. 04

    Surface performance improvements

    We show your operations and maintenance teams exactly where capacity is being lost and how to recover it.

  5. 05

    Review board-ready evidence

    Compare the working results with your historical baseline, with quantified output gains, OEE impact, and clear ROI.

  6. 06

    Scale, refine or stop

    You keep the data and insights. Expand across the rest of your factory only when the pilot has proven its value.

Operations leads. The rest of the committee arrives when the evidence is ready.

Transformation Champion

A named owner who picks the target machines, reviews the insights and owns the result. Free pilots do not fail on the technology; they fail when nobody is accountable for them.

Shop Floor Team

Validates findings, uses guided operator workflows, and keeps results grounded in real floor practice.

Technical & IT

Confirm read-only connection security, data sovereignty, and hardware options (including on-premise Appliance Box).

Financial Sponsor

Reviews board-ready evidence and measured ROI before making any roll-out commitment.

Why we offer the pilot for free.

We know that manufacturing leaders are tired of vague AI promises. By connecting to a subset of your machines and demonstrating immediate, quantified performance improvements, we prove the return on investment before asking for a commitment.

What we need from you: access to the problem, not a perfect data estate.

  • A named Transformation Champion who owns the result.
  • Read-only access to the machines and systems in scope.
  • Enough operating history to establish a baseline.
  • Time with the people who actually run the process.

There is no fee, but there is a cost: your engineering and operator time, and an IT review before anything connects. We would rather name it than pretend it away. Data quality is part of the pilot, not an entry exam.

What you get

  • A live DataQI deployment on a subset of your machines.
  • Real-time automated state capture & root cause analysis.
  • Quantified performance & OEE gain report.
  • Shop-floor feedback from operators & maintenance teams.
  • A clear scale, refine or stop recommendation, backed by data.
“From the outset, working with DataQI and Razor has felt far more like a true partnership than a traditional supplier relationship... They invested time in understanding our operation, our people, and our improvement journey, rather than applying a generic solution.”Dave Tudor · Continuous Improvement Manager · Prima Dental
