Infinite Uptime
Menlo Park, US · Founded 2015 · Delaware corporation · 390 employees on LinkedIn · 10 known investors
Infinite Uptime builds PlantOS, a prescriptive AI platform for heavy manufacturing that reads mechanical and process-induced fault signatures to tell plant operators which equipment fault to fix, why, and by when. Delivered as Production Outcomes as a Service, it serves industries such as steel, cement, mining, chemicals, and oil and gas to reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance costs.

Company profile
researched Aug 2026Infinite Uptime develops PlantOS, a prescriptive AI platform for heavy manufacturing that converts equipment and process data into specific maintenance prescriptions. Where predictive tools flag that equipment may fail, the platform is positioned to tell operators which fault to fix, why, and by when, and then captures operator validation of whether the prescription worked so that feedback trains subsequent models. The company describes this closed feedback cycle as the "99% Trust Loop": accuracy produces operator trust, trust drives action and work orders, actions yield captured outcomes and tagged data, and that labelled signal improves the models.
The product line is organized into four offerings: AI Shields, described as the flagship, comprising equipment-specific domain AI for kilns, mills, cranes, furnaces, mixers, extruders and dryers that targets faults where process conditions induce or accelerate mechanical failure (thermal fatigue, material build-up, cyclone jamming, oil contamination, gear-mesh backlash), using a dynamic FMEA method; critical equipment reliability for assets with high surface temperatures (around 150 °C), ultra-slow speeds (around 2 RPM) and harsh environments; standard equipment reliability with flexible, fast-install deployment; and non-critical / balance-of-plant monitoring using self-powered wireless sensors that require no gateways. Coverage spans nine verticals. The platform distinguishes equipment-borne degradation modes (bearing wear, unbalance, misalignment, looseness, cavitation, resonance, lubrication degradation, gear-mesh anomalies) from process-induced modes (kiln ring formation, thermal overstress, cyclone coating buildup, ladle heat profile drift, hot-strip thermal fatigue, wet-end web tension drift, coupling thermal loads, roll thermal overload), with 20+ modes cited in each category.
Data inputs include sensors and equipment data, oil analysis, inspection data, and process data from PLC and historian systems. Deployment is presented as additive to existing systems rather than a replacement, following a 90-day path: solution deployment and baseline assessment in weeks 1-2 with full equipment coverage from day one, a first prescription and operator validation workshop in weeks 3-4, additional lines and process efficiency modules in month 2, and plant-wide rollout with a board-ready ROI report in month 3.
Business model
PlantOS is delivered as "Production Outcomes as a Service," with results validated and signed off by plant operators and reported through the PlantOS Digital Reporting System.
Traction
The company reports 1,000 plants digitalized globally and 167,837 hours of unplanned downtime saved as of August 2026, including 36,108 hours saved in the steel vertical in India and the USA. Named customers cited in testimonials include JSW Steel (USA and Dolvi, India), Indorama Ventures, Tornel Tyres, Silgan Whitecap, Vedanta Sesa Goa, Tata Steel Thailand and Coromandel International. PlantOS is rated 4.5 out of 5 on Gartner Peer Insights.
▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography
Market position
Positioned as a vertical AI provider for plant reliability outcomes, differentiating from generic predictive maintenance tools that stop at mechanical signatures.
Emphasis on prescriptive rather than predictive output (which fault to fix, why and by when), joint modelling of mechanical and process-induced failure modes, equipment-specific AI Shields, operator validation and digital sign-off of outcomes, and deployment without rip-and-replace of existing systems.
Technology
Vertical, equipment-specific prescriptive AI models that combine mechanical fault signatures with process context, built using a dynamic FMEA method and refined by a continuous operator-validation feedback loop. Data sources include vibration and other sensors, self-powered wireless sensors for non-critical equipment, oil analysis, inspection records, and PLC/historian process data.
Go-to-market
Direct enterprise sales supported by discovery calls in which equipment risk and ROI are modelled before commitment, a two-week first-prescription milestone, and expansion from initial lines to plant-wide deployment; customer testimonials and a Gartner Peer Insights rating are used as proof points.
Reliability, maintenance, engineering and production leaders at heavy industry plants across nine verticals, including steel, tyres and rubber, fibres/chemicals, packaging, and mining.
Geography
Customer deployments referenced in India, the United States and Thailand, with plants described as digitalized globally.
