Drafts protect production: AI-created screens and dashboards reviewed before going live
Same access controls for AI as for people: roles, rights and logging
Assists in user's own language and explains PLCGateway features through built-in help
AI agents handle routine work, so people focus only on decisions requiring judgment
Built as a company workspace, not just a chat window
Open source core available free to self-host
