Discover how AI Factory Agents from Augmentir are transforming manufacturing with real-time insights, automation, and workforce augmentation.
Last Updated:
In the evolving landscape of Industry 4.0, popularized by Klaus Schwab, and now Industry 5.0, manufacturers are under increasing pressure to become more agile, resilient, and efficient. Amid labor shortages, shifting customer expectations, and digital disruption, one of the most transformative tools emerging is Factory Agents: smart, context-aware AI agents capable of autonomously performing tasks, surfacing insights, and augmenting human decision-making.
What are Factory Agents?
Factory agents are not physical robots, nor are they just software scripts. They’re intelligent, digital workers — powered by AI — that act on behalf of manufacturing teams to interpret data, automate actions, and optimize workflows. They serve as proactive copilots on the shop floor, embedded into the frontline work environment, continuously learning from human activity and contextual factory data to provide real-time support and operational insights.
These agents can assist with:
Recommending optimized workflows
Identifying skill gaps or training needs for frontline workers
Monitoring process performance and flagging anomalies
Automatically capturing tribal knowledge
Personalizing work instructions based on the worker’s experience and certification level
In short, factory agents bridge the gap between human intelligence and machine efficiency on the shop floor — and Augmentir is leading the charge.
Augmentir’s AI Agent Studio: Manufacturing Intelligence Made Easy
While agentic AI the concept of AI agents has existed in other sectors, Augmentir is the first to bring a no-code Industrial AI Agent Studio purpose-built for manufacturing. This unique platform allows operations leaders, supervisors, and even non-technical users to create and deploy custom AI agents tailored to specific needs across:
Workforce onboarding and training
Maintenance and repair operations (MRO)
Quality assurance
Safety procedures
Performance monitoring
These agents are powered by proprietary algorithms and generative AI that continuously learn from your workforce and operations data. That means over time, the agents get smarter — making increasingly precise recommendations, automating more tasks, and reducing variability across the shop floor.
The result? An adaptive, intelligent frontline that can respond dynamically to production demands, labor variability, and skill shortages.
Meet Augie: The Face of Next-Gen Industrial AI
At the core of Augmentir’s AI capabilities is Augie — an Industrial Generative AI assistant built specifically for frontline manufacturing environments. Augie acts like a real-time guide and operational partner for shop floor workers, supervisors, and even plant managers.
Here’s what makes Augie different:
Context-aware assistance: Augie understands the unique context of your operation — such as a specific piece of equipment, a shift schedule, or a worker’s skill level — to tailor guidance appropriately.
Conversational interface: Workers can interact with Augie naturally through chat, enabling real-time Q&A, issue resolution, or step-by-step guidance.
Continuous learning: As workers interact with Augie, it learns and improves, capturing undocumented knowledge and institutionalizing best practices across the organization.
Rather than replacing workers, Augie amplifies their capabilities, making everyone on the shop floor more confident, capable, and productive.
Real-World Impact: Augmentir in Action
Companies using Augmentir have reported measurable improvements across multiple KPIs:
20–40% reduction in training time by personalizing learning to individual skill levels
30% improvement in first-time quality through smarter digital work instructions
25% gain in workforce productivity due to real-time guidance and fewer delays
Stronger worker retention through empowered learning and growth pathways
In a time when manufacturers are grappling with a skills gap, labor shortages, and increased demand for agility, these outcomes are game-changers.
Why Factory Agents Are Defining the Future of Industrial Work
The traditional shop floor has been defined by rigid systems and static processes. But today’s manufacturers need more flexibility — they need systems that adapt to shifting demand, dynamic labor pools, and constant process change.
AI factory agents offer this adaptability and with Augmentir’s Industrial AI platform, manufacturers can unlock this potential without a massive overhaul or technical burden.
Factory agents represent a new class of industrial tools — intelligent, autonomous, and human-centric. As the first platform to bring this vision to life, Augmentir is not just building tools, but reshaping how manufacturing work gets done.
With Augie and the AI Agent Studio, Augmentir is helping manufacturers step into a new era of operational excellence — where the frontline is not just automated, but truly augmented.

My name is Chris Kuntz. I’m with an AI company called Augmentir, and we provide connected worker software for frontline workers in manufacturing. Today what I’ll be talking about is artificial intelligence, which in many ways has taken over the media, and become a major part of our lives, but I want to talk about it in the context of manufacturing and specifically talk about generative AI assistants and AI agents that can be used in manufacturing to help guide and support today’s frontline workers.
So just a quick 30 seconds on Augmentir and who we are as a company. We’re a relatively young company, founded in 2018, but we have a pretty deep history in innovative software and manufacturing, dating back to the late 1980s. The founders of Augmentir were the same industry innovators that founded Wonderware in 1987, which revolutionized HMI software in factories. Wonderware went public and is now part of AVEVA/Schneider Electric. We were the founders of Lighthammer, which is now part of SAP’s MII offering. And we were the founders of ThingWorx, which is now part of PTC and revolutionized the Industrial Internet of Things space. And when we left PTC, the team got back together again and we wanted to focus on tackling what we considered to be the next big problem in manufacturing at the time, which was the human worker.
If you think about AI and how it’s been, automation and how AI has optimized production lines, really the last mile for driving efficiency in manufacturing is the human worker. And even more apparent over the past five years since the pandemic, the labor shortage, the skilled labor shortage has created dramatic impacts on product quality, product efficiency, and overall throughput in manufacturing. And so our goal at Augmentir was to tackle that.
So let’s start this conversation by talking about AI and the history of AI in manufacturing. And it dates back to the 1960s. AI has been used in automation in manufacturing for decades now. It’s been used to drive incredible levels of efficiency. It’s been used in machine vision systems for quality improvements. And you see that you, when you walk around, manufacturing trade shows like this, it’s been used in warehouse in warehousing automation, and more recently, it’s been used in the industrial internet of things, digitally connecting equipment and using AI to analyze the data that is coming off of that equipment to drive greater efficiencies in production, production efficiency in manufacturing. But a common theme across all of this is up to this point, AI has been used to replace the human worker or to optimize manual labor or manual efforts that humans were doing in factories, previously. AI has a unique opportunity, specifically around generative AI co-pilots, if you think ChatGPT or AI agents, is to augment the human worker, not replace them.
And so the question we asked ourselves at Augmentir, when we started, was, can AI do the same for humans? Can AI drive efficiency for the humans that are still on the shop floor in manufacturing, quality, engineering, and maintenance roles and in equipment operation. More importantly, in maintenance, can AI be used to optimize the work that they’re doing? And why now?Here are some statistics from a report that LNS Research, an analyst firm based out of Boston ran last year on the future of industrial work. Pretty fascinating statistics. When they look at the average tenure rate in manufacturing, 2019 compared to the end of last year. So from 20 years to three years, the average time and position went down from seven years to nine months, and the average three-month retention rate, the rate at which people stay in after the first three months, from 90% down to 50%. So the problem you have in manufacturing today is yes, there’s a labor shortage, yes, it is difficult to find skilled labor, but because humans are required in manufacturing, what organizations are doing is hiring less skilled workers. And now you have a problem that’s really twofold on the shop floor. You have less experienced workers that also have less experience or less skilled workers, also have less experience. And that results in safety issues, quality issues, product recalls, downtime, everything possible that you can imagine that relates to human error in or on a factory floor.
In this survey, from LNS, the respondents, 92% of them said they were looking at technology as a way to offset that skilled labor gap. Now, it’s not the only solution, certainly there are better hiring strategies, better training strategies, but certainly looking at technology as a big piece of offsetting that labor crisis. Just another statistic here from a study in Deloitte, even if every skilled worker, and this is just in America, even if every skilled worker was employed, there would still be a 35% gap in unfilled job openings in manufacturing. That’s how bad it is. And so Deloitte predicts by 2030, that it’s a $1 trillion problem in the US alone. And I think they forecasted $3 trillion globally, a problem that exists for production output and manufacturing.
So that brings us to what we’re talking about here today, AI agents and co-pilots. Everyone here has used ChatGPT or Gemini or Perplexity or whatever, chatbot you want to use today, fantastic results and fantastic opportunities when you think about consumer AI, but what I want to do is talk about the context of AI assistance, as well as agents, which there’s some blurring of the line there, but we’ll talk about that, and their applicability in industrial operations and why it’s quite a bit different from consumer AI.
So what is an AI co-pilot? Best example is ChatGPT, right? We’ve all used it. Natural language interface, the ability to use what they call a large language model, LLM, for those of you that might not be as technical, which has the ability for that agent or that assistant to understand vast amounts of data and it provides context assistance to users. On the flip side, what is an agent? An agent is an AI bot that acts more autonomously. They can operate based on a prompt like you would have with ChatGPT, but they don’t have to. So they can actually take autonomous action based on instructions you give it. Now, when you think about it, I’m going to use ChatGPT as an example today because I think we’ve all probably used it or used something similar. They’re starting to blur the lines a little bit with their, I think they’re calling it the ChatGPT operator, so that’s starting to blur the lines between autonomous and strictly prompt-based AI. But the idea is the same in the context of today, what we’re talking about in terms of an AI co-pilot or an assistant that is a prompt-based bot that that a user might be using. And from an agent standpoint, it is something that can act more autonomously. And a prerequisite to all this, when you think about manufacturing and you think about frontline workers, whether they are working in safety, quality, equipment and machine maintenance and repair or equipment operation, a prerequisite to all this is the ability to have a connected worker.
And by connected worker, what we like to talk about at Augmentir is a worker that is not only connected with a digital or a mobile tool, like a phone, a tablet, a wearable technology, a wearable augmented reality-based headset, for example, but also digitally connected into the business. So using that interface to not just connect them physically with a device, but connect them into HR systems, learning management systems, ERP systems, quality systems, and safety systems, systems that they use every day. But now that they’re connected, they can become human sensors on the shop floor. And there’s a vast amount of data that we can then capitalize on here, and AI can then act on.
So what I want to do now is talk about consumer AI, again, the example of ChatGPT compared to industrial AI. And in the case of today, I’m going to give some examples of manufacturing companies that are actually using this technology today. But when you think about industrial operations, you have to think quite a bit differently than how we might use Gemini or ChatGPT today. So I’m just going to walk through an example here. You have a frontline worker, an operator on a manufacturing floor, and their job every day is to operate the mixer. Okay? Part of their job is also to periodically do a clean, inspect, and lubricate on that piece of equipment, so it doesn’t go down or so that they can prevent failures from happening. So that’s a CIL. So now go back to the context that I started this conversation with. Let’s say you have a less experienced worker, maybe they are a novice worker.

Discover how Augmentir’s AI transforms the connected worker journey—boosting training, productivity, and continuous improvement across operations.
Last Updated:
In an era defined by digital transformation and workforce disruption, industrial companies are reimagining how they support their frontline teams. At the heart of this shift is the Connected Worker—a worker empowered by technology to perform safely, efficiently, and with confidence.
But enabling a connected workforce requires more than just digitizing procedures or implementing standalone tools. It demands intelligence embedded throughout the entire worker lifecycle.
That’s where Augmentir’s AI-powered Connected Worker platform shines. By infusing intelligence into every phase of the connected worker journey—from content creation to onboarding, daily operations, and continuous improvement—Augmentir delivers measurable gains in productivity, safety, and workforce engagement.
A Framework for Transformation: The Connected Worker Journey
The Connected Worker Journey consists of four critical, interrelated stages:
Content Conversion & Creation
Worker Onboarding & Training
Operational Excellence
Continuous Improvement
At each phase, Augmentir’s embedded AI transforms outdated processes into intelligent workflows—helping organizations streamline deployment, scale training, and drive continuous value.
Let’s explore how.
1. Content Conversion & Creation
Laying the Foundation for Frontline Intelligence
Deploying modern Connected Worker software delivers ROI through a combination of features that support data collection, compliance, auditability, and data visibility for enabling continuous improvement.
For all companies, the Connected Worker journey begins with transforming legacy documents—SOPs, work instructions, training manuals, checklists, videos, and more—into structured, digital-ready formats that support the requirements above.
This means converting thousands (to tens of thousands) of legacy documents trapped in PDFs, Word docs, Excel files, Powerpoints, videos, and proprietary systems, all while trying to preserve their structure, intent, and compliance relevance. In the past, this process was typically manual, becoming one of the costliest and longest phases in the Connected Worker journey.
Augmentir, even prior to Generative AI (GenAI) era, has been a pioneer in providing tools to significantly reduce this effort even while meeting the three fundamental requirements of conversion:
Maintain the integrity of the form design: the format of legacy documents did not arrive by chance, rather they were the result of serious considerations for human factors. Arbitrarily changing these designs results in significant retraining of the frontline workforce, loss of usability, and potentially, significant operational qualification costs in regulated use cases.
Simplify the addition of data collection: make incorporating data collection throughout the form simple, efficient, and smart. Data collection offers the opportunity for smart validation, data driven conditional workflows, escalation, and continuous improvement.
Embed granular event tracking: Connected Worker ROI depends on the ability to provide compliance and auditability, which is enabled through granular event tracking. Additionally, continuous improvement relies on AI-optimized data from digital time and motion studies, which is automatically captured and processed through Augmentir’s patented True Productivity™ algorithm.
Today, general purpose GenAI tools offer the tantalizing vision that they can transform this process by accelerating the conversion of legacy digital content into, structured content suitable for Connected Worker use cases. There are examples where GenAI has been demonstrated as a general purpose solution to performing these conversions. Unfortunately, in each of the examples that Augmentir has reviewed, these tools met none of the fundamental conversion requirements.
Included in Augmentir’s suite of Industrial GenAI tools, is Augie™ Content Assistant, which is purpose-built for Connected Worker use cases. Augie has been built with domain specific tooling which, when combined with advanced large language models (LLMs), delivers intelligent content that meets the foundational requirements of the Connected Worker space.
With the Augie Content Assistant, Augmentir turns the challenge of content digitization into a fast, AI-driven advantage:
91% faster content conversion: What used to take hours now takes just minutes to convert a single document. When scaled across an organization’s entire repository of SOPs, work instructions, training materials, and more, this reduces the overall content conversion effort from months down to days.
Multi-format compatibility: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs, images, and narrated videos are seamlessly converted into native Augmentir content, complete with data collection and high resolution embedded event tracking.
Fidelity preserved: Structure, logic, and intent are maintained through AI-optimized prompts. This ensures that converted content mirrors the original format workers are familiar with—helping reduce change fatigue and making it easier for frontline teams to adopt digital workflows with minimal disruption.
Instant translation: Localize content quickly without compromising compliance or clarity.
This is more than digitization—it’s intelligent transformation that enables data collection, auditability, and operational scalability from day one.
2. Worker Onboarding & Training
Adaptive Support That Accelerates Learning
Once your content foundation is in place, the next challenge is onboarding and upskilling your workforce. Traditional methods are static, generic, and fail to reflect real-time needs.
Tailored workflows: New hires are guided step-by-step based on their role, skill level, and assigned tasks.
Training in the flow of work: Instruction happens in real time, with guidance delivered during actual task execution.
Digital assistants ensure worker safety and compliance: Workers have natural language access to digital assistants to guide and support them while they work—enforcing safety, quality, and best practices.
Continuous adaptation: Augmentir’s True Opportunity™ AI continuously monitors skilling and reskilling performance and adjusts training content based on worker feedback and progression.
This ensures faster ramp-up times, better comprehension, and more confident employees from day one.
3. Operational Excellence

Explore how Augmentir uses AI to personalize manufacturing training, boost performance, and deliver real-time support and content creation.
Last Updated:
In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, staying competitive means more than just upgrading equipment—it requires investing in people. But traditional workforce training methods haven’t kept up. Static instruction manuals, one-size-fits-all onboarding programs, and outdated SOPs often fall short of preparing workers for the dynamic challenges of the modern factory floor.
Enter artificial intelligence (AI). From analyzing worker performance to delivering personalized training and real-time support, AI is transforming how manufacturers develop and empower their frontline workforce. Solutions like Augmentir are at the forefront of this shift, using advanced analytics, machine learning, and generative AI to create more effective, agile, and personalized training ecosystems.
Here’s how AI is reshaping manufacturing training across four critical areas.
1. Smarter Upskilling and Reskilling Through Performance Analytics
One of AI’s most valuable contributions to manufacturing training is its ability to turn raw performance data into actionable insight. Every worker interaction—how long a task takes, whether they need help, how often they make mistakes—tells a story. Traditionally, these insights were anecdotal at best. With AI, they’re measurable and immediately useful.
Platforms like Augmentir use AI to analyze real-time worker performance data and automatically surface trends and gaps. Suppose a maintenance technician consistently struggles with certain procedures. The system flags this, allowing supervisors to deliver targeted retraining or create a learning path that addresses the weak areas. Likewise, workers who consistently perform well might be fast-tracked for cross-training or more advanced roles.
This approach enables continuous learning and ongoing upskilling and reskilling, not just during onboarding or annual reviews, but every day. By matching training efforts with actual needs—based on data, not guesswork—companies can build more agile, responsive workforces that are always learning and improving.
2. Personalized Work Instructions for Every Skill Level
Manufacturing is not a one-size-fits-all environment—so why should training be?
AI can help tailor work instructions and learning experiences to the individual. With Augmentir, for example, AI dynamically adjusts work instructions and guidance based on a worker’s experience, proficiency, and even recent performance. This personalization helps new employees ramp up faster and allows seasoned workers to bypass unnecessary detail and focus on what matters most.
For a novice, instructions might include step-by-step visual aids, safety warnings, and prompts for supervisor sign-off. A veteran might receive a streamlined checklist with optional references. The experience becomes smoother and more relevant for each person, improving accuracy and reducing the time it takes to perform tasks.
This kind of adaptive guidance is especially valuable in high-mix, low-volume environments or where production processes change frequently. Workers stay productive while learning in the flow of work—a win for both efficiency and engagement.
3. On-the-Job Support with Generative AI Factory Assistants
Even the best training can’t prepare workers for every situation they’ll encounter. That’s where generative AI assistants—often called copilots—come in.
Imagine a frontline operator faced with an unfamiliar error code on a CNC machine. Instead of stopping work, digging through documentation, or calling a supervisor, they can ask an AI assistant integrated into their work app or wearable device. The assistant quickly provides context-aware help: maybe it’s a diagnostic procedure, a video walkthrough, or a simple checklist.
This is not science fiction—it’s happening now. With tools like Augmentir’s Augie, workers get real-time guidance, support, and training while they work, tailored to the exact task and situation. These industrial generative AI assistants learn and improve with each interaction, so the more they’re used, the better they get at helping.
This not only boosts productivity but also reduces downtime, prevents errors, and improves worker confidence. AI copilots act like a mentor in your pocket—one that’s always available, always up to date, and always ready to help.
4. Rapid Content Creation with Generative AI Tools Like Augie
A major pain point in manufacturing training has always been content creation. Writing SOPs, training manuals, and onboarding documents is time-consuming, and keeping them current is a constant challenge—especially when processes, tools, or equipment change.
That’s where generative AI tools like Augmentir’s Augie come in.
Augie helps training teams and subject matter experts create up-to-date, accurate, and engaging content in a fraction of the time it used to take. You can input a few notes, a video walkthrough, or an old manual, and Augie will generate structured work instructions, training modules, or even interactive checklists. This democratizes content creation—now anyone from a line lead to a maintenance engineer can contribute training content without needing to be a technical writer.
More importantly, because Augie is part of the same ecosystem, the training content it generates can be immediately pushed into the hands of workers—embedded in digital workflows, accessible via AI assistants, or served up dynamically based on user behavior.
This means your training stays fresh, relevant, and aligned with the reality on the ground. No more outdated manuals. No more lag between process changes and training updates.
The Big Picture: AI as a Training Multiplier
What ties all these innovations together is a shift from static, one-time training to ongoing, personalized support—enabled by AI.
AI makes training smarter by identifying who needs help and where.
It makes training faster by delivering content that matches each worker’s needs.
It makes training more effective by embedding it directly into the flow of work.
And it makes training more scalable by automating content creation and support delivery.
In short, AI becomes a force multiplier for training. It empowers workers to get better faster, managers to lead more effectively, and companies to stay agile in a constantly changing world.
Looking Ahead
The manufacturing skills gap isn’t going away anytime soon. In fact, it’s projected that millions of manufacturing jobs could go unfilled over the next decade due to a shortage of trained workers. Traditional training methods simply can’t scale to meet this challenge.
But AI can.
By weaving intelligence into every layer of the training experience—from data analytics to real-time support—platforms like Augmentir offer a new blueprint for workforce development. It’s faster, smarter, more engaging, and ultimately, more human.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not about replacing people with AI—it’s about helping people thrive alongside it.
