The open real-time edge platform enabling

You already bought the AI. It never reached the machine.

Unify connectivity, control and AI in one deterministic runtime, on any hardware, so your data and AI investments can act inside the control loop.

Practical applications

One runtime. Four applications. Built to work as one.

One Xentara runtime brings data, control and AI together at the edge for every application.

Industrial automation equipment running at the edge
01 / Control

Real-Time Control & Edge AI

Faster real-time decisions

Run deterministic control and AI inference together at the machine, without sending critical decisions to the cloud.

Industrial quality inspection equipment
02 / Vision

AI Machine Vision & Inspection

Higher quality, fewer defects

Bring vision models, sensor data and control logic into one real-time workflow for in-line inspection.

Connected machinery on a manufacturing floor
03 / Orchestrate

Manufacturing Cell & Line Orchestration

Flexible production, stronger OEE

Coordinate machines, robotics and material flow across the cell with one shared operational model.

Neural network visualisation representing autonomous machine agents
04 / Scale

Machine Agents

Turn intent into fast, repeatable execution

Give machines context-aware tasks that can observe, decide and act within defined operational guardrails.

The platform

Xentara sits between your machines and your applications.

One real-time layer connects the devices on your shopfloor to the control logic, AI and analytics that run on top.

02 / Run · Xentara

Xentara is the runtime that holds every layer together.

The Xentara core is a real-time runtime for connecting and controlling industrial equipment and applications.

Xentara core
  • Semantic LayerObject-oriented information model with central security
  • Real-Time CoreDeterministic cyclic and event-based execution
  • Connectivity LayerIntegration via connectors, field buses and protocols
+ SkillsTailor the core to your requirements

Each Skill adds a single capability. Install only the ones you need. They run as part of Xentara, not as separate software.

  • Machine & fieldbus connectivity
  • Control logic & simulation
  • Data to your IT systems
  • Analytics & AI at the edge
01 / Connect · Through Xentara

Connect what is already on the shopfloor.

Bring signals, control hardware and distributed infrastructure into the platform without replacing the systems that make production work.

  • SensorsDigital and analogue inputs
  • ActuatorsMotors, valves and switches
  • Industrial NetworksFieldbus and protocol connectivity
  • Edge NodesDistributed systems, synchronized

Protocols, tools and skills, already built in

Beyond the three layers above, a Xentara node speaks these protocols, formats and languages natively, the same runtime across every use case on this page.
