Company
We build AI that works the night shift alongside your operators.
Refineries and process plants run around the clock. The people running them shouldn't have to catch every problem alone.
Why we exist
Most plant incidents don't start big. They start as a drift nobody had time to notice, or a worn bearing that was never on the schedule.
Control rooms are overloaded. A single upset can fire hundreds of alarms, and experienced operators end up filtering noise instead of running the plant. Meanwhile, maintenance is still mostly scheduled by the calendar or triggered by failures, so crews rebuild healthy equipment while others quietly wear out.
QOTAN.ai was founded to change that. We combine process engineering with machine learning to give every plant a tireless second set of eyes. It watches every unit, triages what matters, predicts what will fail, and helps each unit run closer to its best.
What we believe
Principles we build to
People stay in control
QOTAN.ai recommends and people decide. Automatic setpoint changes are opt-in, limited to bounds you set, and can be switched off at any time.
Every recommendation is explained
No black boxes in the control room. Each alert shows the tags, trends and reasoning behind it, so operators and engineers can trust it or challenge it.
Your data stays yours
Deploy on-premise, in your private cloud or fully air-gapped. Connections to operational systems are read-only by default.
Safety systems are off-limits
QOTAN.ai sits alongside your DCS and safety instrumented systems. It never writes to them and never bypasses them.
How we work with you
Start on one unit. Prove it. Then scale.
Discovery
We review your units, alarm history and maintenance records with your engineers, then agree on a pilot scope and success measures.
Pilot
A focused deployment on a single unit or equipment class, measured against your own baseline, usually within one quarter.
Scale
Roll out across units and sites, with integrations into your historian, CMMS and compliance workflows.
