About Control Seat
Control Seat was born on the factory floor. Our founders worked on manufacturing software and controls at Tesla and SpaceX. We started the company to help the people keeping plants running understand their equipment and catch problems earlier.
Control Seat monitors equipment, flags developing problems, and explains likely causes with supporting measurements and recommended checks. Teams can use our sensors, existing plant data, or both.
We work directly with customers to select equipment, install sensors, connect data, and get their maintenance teams started.
