[ FOR MANUFACTURING ]

Put a number on the downtime.

Your operators already know why the line stopped. The problem is that nobody writes it down, so at the Monday meeting three people blame three different machines and the one that is actually costing you the day never comes up. Describe how your plant runs and you get the tables, the forms, a phone app for the floor and the reports, already filled with lines and shifts like yours.

Build yours, freeSee how it runs
NO CARDNO REAL DATA NEEDED
[ THE PROBLEM ]

Every tool you tried made you work its way.

Somebody had to retype every name and certificate before it did anything at all, and that job never got finished. The big suite was too rigid, the build-it-yourself tools were too empty, and you went back to the spreadsheet that at least already had everything in it.

Gobuso starts from the other end. Your files first. Then a plan in plain English you can change. Then working software, the same day.

[ START FROM ONE OF THESE ]

Pick the one that costs you the most. It builds it now.

No sign-up and no data of yours. It designs the tables, builds the app and fills it with a company that looks like yours.

[ HOW IT RUNS ]

From one sentence to the number you needed.

Five moments, in order. Nothing here is a mock-up of a different product: it is the same builder the button above opens.

STAGE 01

One sentence, typed by the plant manager.

[ WHAT DOES YOUR COMPANY DO, AND WHAT DO YOU NEED TO FIX? ]

We run 3 lines across two shifts with 80 people. An operator shouts a reason when a line stops and nobody writes it down. At the Monday meeting everyone blames a different machine. Our downtime reasons are anecdotal.

The finding shows itselfThree of tonight’s four stops are the same infeed on one line.
STAGE 05

And Monday opens on a number.

WHERE ARE THE MINUTES GOING?
1,940

minutes lost across the three lines this month.

Before this, the meeting ran on whoever spoke loudest.

Line 21,120
Line 1430
Line 3260
Unlogged130

Nine hundred of Line 2’s minutes are the infeed, on nights. That is one guide rail, not three machines, and she would have had it shimmed in July.

[ WHAT CHANGES ]

Each line stops for different reasons
SUITEOne list of reasons for all 3 lines
GOBUSODescribe each one, read it back, change it
The floor is a dead spot at two in the morning
SUITEShe writes it on the shift sheet again
GOBUSOFill offline, syncs when she surfaces
Monday asks what last month actually cost
SUITEGo and add up the shift sheets
GOBUSOOpen the line, read its history
[ COMMON QUESTIONS ]
Our operators are not office people.
They do not have to be. The operator sees four fields on a phone at the machine and a box for the shift lead to sign. Everything long and awkward stays in the engineering form, which she never opens.
Can it read the stops off the line instead?
Not on day one. What a line controller gives you is a stop and a duration, and the thing you are missing is the reason, which only the person standing there has. The minutes get better when the controller is wired in later; the reason has to be typed either way.
We already have four years of data.
That is the starting point, not the obstacle. Upload the shift logs, the maintenance history and the scanned calibration certificates exactly as they are, and you check what it read before anything is saved.
What if the AI gets it wrong?
It will, sometimes. That is why nothing is saved until you have read it and said yes. Checking its work is a step in the product, not an afterthought.
