About Control Seat
Control Seat was born on the factory floor. Our founders built factory software and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems at Tesla and SpaceX, and saw how fragmented and outdated industrial software really is. The physical world generates more data than ever. The tools haven't kept up.
Today we build predictive intelligence for industrial plants. Control Seat catches the signs that come weeks before a failure, using the data a plant already collects, wireless sensors where it cannot reach, or both. Every finding comes with the evidence behind it.
Predictive maintenance is where we start, not where we stop. Our long-term mission is to become the operating system for the physical world, the platform that lets AI monitor and control the systems around us, so people can focus on what makes us human.
