Detects delays, anomalies, and bottlenecks ahead of time.
- Forecasts shortages, late orders, and dwell-time overruns
- Flags risks with clear, actionable alerts
- Prioritizes what needs attention first

Root Cause
Pinpoints why issues occur and what will help- Correlates RTLS with ERP/MES to isolate the cause
- Measures impact on delivery performance, efficiency, and lead times
- Recommends next-best actions

Targeted Action
Adjusts schedules, reroutes material, or triggers maintenance automatically- Re-sequence jobs and shift capacity to protect flow
- Create replenishment or maintenance tasks in connected systems
- Update plans and notify stakeholders in real-time

Operational Visibility
Real-time, location-aware view of operations.- See orders, WIP, inventory, assets, and device health at a glance
- Track KPIs and dwell times; generate shift handover notes
- Answers natural-language questions and get ready-to-share summaries
Use Cases – Where askPixi Delivers Impact
On-Time Delivery Protection
Safeguards delivery dates by spotting delays early and proactively taking measures to keep orders on track.
- Monitors every step from order release to shipment
- Detects risks to on-time delivery before they escalate
- Triggers corrective actions to meet customer commitments
Real-Time Bottleneck Detection & Reprioritization
Keeps machines and material flows in sync by detecting bottlenecks before they occur and automatically reprioritizing orders.
- Reprioritization of WIP jobs and worker tasks based on supply chain changes, line progress, task priority, and updated capacity
- Insights and optimization recommendations based on multiple information sources, such as machine data, real-time sensors, order status, and resources
- Updating and rerouting based on updated prioritizations and actual bottlenecks to avoid queues and time waste
Adaptive Shift & Capacity Planning
Continuously adjusts shift schedules and crew allocation to avoid idle time, prevent overload, and improve utilization.
- Elimination of manual shift and capacity planning and scheduling based on actual impacts and multiple data sources, e.g., personal resources, material, workforce skills, updated priorization
- Create sheets based on actual updated resources and real-time material flow and supply chain data
- Tailored worker's task instructions pushed to the work station.
Predictive Material Planning & Bottleneck Avoidance
Anticipates supply shortages, assesses risk, and automatically initiates alternative sourcing or reallocation.
- Detection of material planning risks and bottlenecks.
- Automated production line cycle, shift planning, and scheduling
- Automatic reallocation of stock based on demand and supply chain information
- Risk analysis and sourcing support

FAQs
-
What is askPixi?
askPixi is a conversational, location-aware, agentic AI for manufacturing and logistics. It connects real-time location data with ERP, MES, WMS, data lakes, file systems, and other sources to predict issues, explain root causes, and trigger the right actions before performance is impacted. Think of it as your operations co-pilot that sees across all systems and acts before a bottleneck or disruption reaches your desk...or customer. -
Is it ready for production environments? How quickly will we see results?
Through the 2025 Early Access Program, selected sites can connect it to their RTLS, MES, WMS, and ERP systems and start running real use cases within days with full support from our team. Most plants see impact fast, with fewer delays, less firefighting, and more stable schedules within the first weeks.
-
Does it replace our MES, WMS, or ERP?
No, askPixi works alongside them. If your MES shows a machine is down, askPixi checks where the spare parts are, whether another line can take over, and pushes the updated plan to the shop floor in minutes. It adds foresight and cross-system actionability that your core systems cannot provide alone.
-
How does it detect problems before they escalate?
Yes, askPixi monitors key metrics in real time, such as cycle times, part arrivals, queue lengths, and inventory coverage. If a trend points to a likely delay, for example a supplier truck is running late with buffer stock already low, it alerts you to the issue and suggests or triggers corrective action before production is impacted.
-
Can it act automatically?
Yes, and you decide the level of autonomy. Some teams start with approval-based alerts. Others allow askPixi to execute certain playbooks automatically such as rerouting materials, reprioritizing orders, or triggering a supplier expedite request, always within your guardrails and defined rules.
-
What if our data isn’t perfect?
askPixi does not require flawless data. It cross-checks multiple sources to filter noise and identify true risks. If a feed goes down, for example a scanner stops reporting, it keeps working with the remaining inputs and flags the gap so you can address it.
-
How does it support shift and capacity planning?
askPixi adapts plans as conditions change. If a job finishes early, a machine goes offline, or priorities shift, it reallocates tasks, updates capacity forecasts, and can publish the changes instantly to digital boards or operator tablets so the floor always runs on the latest plan.
-
Is it suitable for different plant sizes?
Yes. In large plants askPixi coordinates complex flows across multiple lines and suppliers. In smaller facilities, it cuts manual re-planning and keeps orders prioritized without extra admin load.
-
How is security handled?
All connections are encrypted. askPixi follows your existing user permissions and runs within your approved IT environment or secure cloud. No operational data is shared externally.
-
How much training of the AI is required?
Minimal. You can interact with askPixi in plain language without coding or special commands. Operators and managers typically get up to speed in a single onboarding session.
-
What kind of improvements is it built to deliver?
askPixi targets measurable operational gains such as higher throughput, fewer last-minute changes, better on-time delivery, less manual coordination, and greater schedule stability. Over time these gains accumulate into a more predictable and resilient operation.
