Let’s start from a real situation in your facilities.
Book my DiagnosticYour private foundation
Dedicated capacity for your facility, and a model trained on your processes.
Processes, readings and operating procedures stay in your environment, processed on machines that serve only you, in Quebec. A model can learn your operating rules there.
-
Private infrastructure
An environment dedicated to your company, hosted at Hub AI, in Quebec. It is not shared with other clients; your teams access it over the web.
Processes, readings, operating procedures and incident reports stay in this environment.
-
Computing power
Your processing runs on supercomputers reserved for your company. That same power is also used to train your model. HUB AI and its agents are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This power is yours: you use it as you need it, with no bill for each job.
Operating files and histories are processed on capacity reserved for your facility.
-
Model training
HUB AI can train a model on your ways of working, from examples validated by your teams. It is trained and hosted on these same machines, in Quebec, then tested before it goes into service. Your examples train only your model, and stay walled off, in Canada.
The model can learn your processes and your operating rules, from examples validated by your teams.
The Diagnostic will tell whether a tailored model is the right lever, or whether memory and agents are enough.
HUB AI at work in your facilities
Department shown: Control room and shift handover
Events, open actions and points to pass on are gathered in a report that the operator reviews.
Control room, process, reliability, environment: one agent per team, precise permissions, nothing without the person in charge.
Control room and shift handover
“Can a complete shift handover be done in five minutes?”
The shift report, prepared. Events, open actions and points to pass on are gathered in a report that the operator reviews.
Process engineering and process safety
“A modification is being considered: which documents and which validations?”
The review file, with the right disciplines. The review file is prepared with the documents concerned, the open questions and the disciplines to consult. No direct action on the PLCs, the process parameters or the safety systems.
Laboratory and product quality
“Which lot does this result belong to?”
The sample linked to its lot. Match the sample, the lot, the applicable method and the results received; release remains with the quality manager.
Maintenance and reliability
“The full history of a piece of equipment, in one place?”
The equipment history, gathered. Interventions, failures and approved procedures are gathered before any work begins. The authorized teams confirm the diagnosis.
Environment
“Is the evidence in the register up to date?”
The register, with its evidence. Group the results, due dates and evidence tied to the register of obligations determined for the site, according to its activities and authorizations.
Parts storeroom
“Is the part really in stock?”
Requirement, reference and stock matched. Match the work requirement, the technical references and the confirmed stock.
OHS, lockout and work preparation
“Which lockout procedure is the right one?”
The work prepared before anyone steps in. Gather the approved procedures and the documents needed to prepare the work. The conditions for the work are still decided by the authorized persons.
What HUB AI can prepare for the industrial sector
The industry’s other functions, in addition to those shown in the scene. Each example is a proposed path: it depends on the connected sources, the access rights and the appropriate tools, and the person responsible reviews or decides.
Organization depicted: Operation of a process plant, continuous or batch. Variants to document: Mine, power plant, water treatment or other process: operating functions and controls specific to the site.
Production planning
Gather requirements, inventory, campaign constraints and scheduled interventions to prepare the planning meeting.
Field operations
Structure a round observation by equipment and prepare the work request. Operator observations remain separate from approved instructions.
Instrumentation, automation and operational technology
Prepare the file for a sensor with the available calibrations, related equipment and expected tests.
Utilities and energy
Consolidate the available readings for steam, compressed air and consumption for review.
Purchasing and suppliers
Link a critical part or product to the work that depends on it.
Receiving, storage and shipping
Prepare the documents for a shipment or transfer with product and destination.
Projects, planned shutdowns and contractors
Link work, parts, people involved and dependencies before a shutdown.
Illustrative example Proposed path across several teams
- Trigger A pump anomaly is reported during a round.
- Documents gathered HUB AI gathers the equipment history: interventions, failures and approved procedures.
- Preparation The equipment file is ready before any work begins.
- Decision The authorized teams confirm the diagnosis, the conditions for the work and the safety measures.
- Result The work file and the shift handover report keep a record of the decisions made.
Indicators to measure: Observations with no follow-up; incomplete preparation files; blocking prerequisites discovered during a shutdown. No quantified gain has been established.
Responsibilities: Documentary support with no direct action on PLCs, process parameters or safety systems. Environmental obligations are determined according to the site’s activities and authorizations.

Private infrastructure
Processes and operating data: processed in an infrastructure that serves only you
A facility’s know-how lives in its processes, its readings and its procedures. Here is why the place where they are processed matters, and what HUB AI’s private infrastructure changes.
Which data
- Processes, recipes and operating parameters
- Readings, histories and incident reports
- Safety and lockout procedures
- Contractor and supplier contracts
Why it’s sensitive
- This information is often covered by confidentiality agreements with your clients and your partners.
- Law 25 (Quebec’s privacy law) governs the collection, communication and retention of personal information, including its communication outside Quebec.
- A public cloud AI tool may process data outside the country, reuse it under its own terms or make it accessible to third parties; these risks vary by provider and contract.
How HUB AI keeps them in your hands
- Hosting in QuebecYour processing runs on infrastructure hosted at Hub AI, in Quebec, in Canada.
- Machines that serve only youAn environment dedicated to your company, hosted at Hub AI: it is not shared with other clients.
- Your teams access it over the webNo hardware to install on your premises: your teams work in HUB AI from their browser.
- Controls to define with youAccess rights per person, access logging, encryption and retention periods: capabilities to confirm for your deployment.
These references describe general obligations; they are not legal advice. Private infrastructure does not guarantee compliance on its own: compliance depends on your practices, your contracts and the assessment made for your organization.
