WorkMachines / Physical AI operations

The operating layer for autonomous machines.

WorkMachines connects human operators, autonomous machines and real site systems in one accountable operation. Patrol is the first commercial product. Crop Monitoring is the next R&D programme on the same platform.

Solution 01 / Patrol

Autonomous patrol, from route to verified handoff.

The robot covers the route. WorkMachines supervises the mission, checks what it finds and returns a complete incident record to the people already responsible.

Solution 02 / R&D programme

Crop Monitoring for protected growing environments.

A mobile machine follows repeatable routes, records crop and site conditions, and returns location-tagged observations for a grower to review.

The WorkMachines system

One platform, configured for different kinds of work.

Patrol and Crop Monitoring share mission control, site-edge execution and machine connectors. Their routes, sensing plans and review workflows remain specific to the job.

Advisory

Make the deployment decision before buying the machine.

We combine adoption and deployment planning into one path. Start with the unresolved decision and stop when the evidence is enough.

01Evaluate

Find the site and task worth testing.

02Design

Specify the machine, controls and economics.

03Prove

Run the job under real site conditions.

04Operationalise

Set ownership, response and rollout gates.
