Kairos

Kairos is Cerasus's physics-grounded, agentic AI/ML platform for the process industry. It fuses historian data with engineering knowledge to predict asset and process health, explain every alert, and let AI agents act within guardrails — with fleet learning across sites that never moves raw plant data.

What it does

Kairos, explained.

Generic machine learning on plant data produces alerts nobody trusts. Kairos grounds its models in process physics and equipment knowledge, so a bearing-degradation or dry-gas-seal warning comes with the sensor contributions, the standard it references and the remaining useful life — an explanation an engineer can check.

Around the models sits a command centre: live telemetry, active alerts, an agent and guardrail feed, and an autonomy posture that says exactly what the AI may do on its own. Federated fleet learning improves the models across plants using secure aggregation and differential privacy, so no site's raw data leaves the site.

What Cerasus provides

Key features

Command centre

Plant availability, open alerts, models in production, agent actions and fleet accuracy on one screen with live process telemetry.

Predict — asset & process health

Alert queue with severity, remaining useful life, sensor-contribution (SHAP-style) attribution and physics-attributed explanations.

Data fabric & onboarding

Historian and file onboarding, context/knowledge graph, data-quality governance and demo datasets to start fast.

Hybrid engine & Insight workbench

Physics-plus-ML hybrid models, twin builder and an analyst workbench for exploring signals.

Agentic AI with guardrails

An LLM engine with native function calling runs automation sweeps and recommendations inside a defined autonomy level (L0–L5).

FleetLearn — federated learning

Secure aggregation (FedAvg + proximal), differential privacy, quality-aware update capping and rollback policy across sites.

How it works

Workflow, step by step

Onboard

Connect historians or files; build the context graph; govern data quality.

Model

Train hybrid physics-ML models; validate against history.

Operate

Command centre, alerts with explanations, agent actions within guardrails.

Learn

Federated updates across the fleet; retrain as plants change.
