Capture intent on iPad
Sketch screens, collect notes and photos, and pull in PLC source packages while you're still standing at the machine.
Early access — pilots open
OptixGen is one workflow across three surfaces: capture machine intent on iPad, validate and generate on your Windows Hub, and keep field capture read-only by design.
High-level overview only — technical detail available to pilot partners under NDA.
The actual OptixGen iPad app — Ladder Troubleshooting, captured July 8, 2026. More real screenshots below.
Trusted by integrator teams in early access
“We finally have one place to capture field notes and tie them to review-ready Optix output — without giving phones write access to the PLC.”
“The Hub keeps engineering authority where it belongs. iPad authoring on the floor, validation before anything ships.”
How it works
Sketch screens, collect notes and photos, and pull in PLC source packages while you're still standing at the machine.
Your Windows Hub checks the work, builds review-ready FactoryTalk Optix artifacts, and keeps every result tied to its evidence.
Engineers review the package — screens, notes, validation reports — before anything is called done. Nothing ships on autopilot.
The platform
Engineering authority on the Hub. Authoring on iPad. Read-only field capture on iPhone.
Prove · Generate · Validate
Where projects come together and your team validates output before delivery.
Author · Review · Accept
Capture notes and review packages while the work is still fresh.
Capture · Relay · Read-only
Field proof without PLC write authority. Your team chooses what enters the record.
The real thing
No mockups here — these are captures from the shipping OptixGen builds.
Why OptixGen
Kick off FactoryTalk Optix jobs with structure instead of a blank screen.
Plant-floor capture stays read-only. Nothing writes to a PLC from a phone or tablet without Hub acceptance.
Notes, reviews, and project history in one workspace for sign-off.
Carry the same workflow from one machine to the next — structure instead of starting from scratch every time.
OptixGen is independent software — not affiliated with or endorsed by Rockwell Automation.
Early access
OptixGen is in active development. We're onboarding a small number of Rockwell-centric integrators before public launch.
