Then keeps paying.
We start with one valuable operating problem — yield, energy, reliability, quality — agree the number it's worth, and prove the return in production. Then the next problem. Every solution adds to one connected model of your plant, so each one lands faster than the last — and your operation climbs the six levels toward running itself.
Every improvement in yield, cost and reliability starts with an operating decision: how hard to run, when to switch, what to fix.
Arundo brings together operational data and engineering intelligence to help your teams choose the right action as conditions change.

Maintenance
When should we intervene?
50%
less over-maintenance on pumps, without trading away reliability.

As decision support earns trust, more of the decision loop can be handed over—from recommending actions to executing them within limits your team defines.
Arundo wrote the roadmap for that hand-over: The Six Levels of Autonomous Plant Operations (Arundo 2026) — the reference scale from the instrumented plant to the goal-directed one. Most of the industry is at Level 0–1. Foundation runs plants at Level 2 today, engineered for Level 3.
The operator runs the plant
The Six Levels of Autonomous Plant Operations (Arundo 2026)
The scale, documented — one chapter per level, written as we build the road.
What changed in AI, what didn't, and what industrial autonomy actually requires. Three eras of AI in under a year — and why the move from Level 2 to Level 3 is operational, not technical.
Autonomy doesn't come from another dashboard. It comes from a platform where every sensor, asset, model, and document lives in one connected system that AI can reason over — and act through.
Arundo Foundation is that system, end to end:
Your engineers already have an AI client they trust. Foundation ships complete MCP servers, so the entire Domain — live data, models, documents — is available inside Claude, ChatGPT, and every other MCP-compatible client. No proprietary chatbot to adopt. No walled garden to maintain.
Every buyer is choosing between two architectures — an assistant bolted onto point tools, or a platform designed backwards from Level 5. That's the difference between buying a chatbot and owning autonomous operations.
A decade in asset-heavy operations leaves a paper trail.
Production scheduled against live energy prices and optimised across every plant and energy market in Europe. 3–5% energy cost savings; 5% EBITDA improvement across connected sites.
Every voyage benchmarked against comparable vessels under comparable conditions, not stale sea-trial baselines: boil-off, reliquefaction and fuel performance for the whole fleet.
The minimum flush each product changeover needs, solved from viscosity physics. Over 15% flush reduction, with quality maintained.
SPYRO®, the simulator used by ~80% of the world's ethylene producers, running live against plant data in Foundation: yield, decoke scheduling, furnace benchmarking.
We've spent a decade inside asset-heavy operations — oil & gas, chemicals, maritime, energy, utilities, manufacturing. Industrial engineers, data scientists, and software builders working on plant floors and bridge decks, not just in notebooks. That's why Foundation is built for the realities of OT data, legacy assets, and operators who need answers they can act on.
