Turn legacy PLC code into insight

Many factories still rely on decades‑old PLC code that few engineers fully understand. When updates or fixes are needed, teams face costly reverse‑engineering and outdated documentation.

Software Defined Automation’s AI Factory Agent changes that. It uses AI to automatically interpret and explain control logic in plain language—turning legacy code into clear, actionable insights. Engineers can troubleshoot faster, onboard easily, and modernize systems with confidence.
  • AI Code Documentation

    AI Code Documentation

    Powered by AI, Factory Agent can automatically document new code, freeing up your programmers to spend time on more productive activities.

  • The AI ST Code Generation

    The AI ST Code Generation

    The AI Structured Text Code Generation feature creates IEC 61131-3–compliant Structured Text code for Siemens TIA Portal projects from natural language descriptions or functional specifications. Engineers can describe desired logic or control behavior, and the AI produces syntactically correct code aligned with Siemens best practices—including variable declarations, function blocks, and clear inline comments. This accelerates development, reduces manual coding, and helps both experienced and new programmers quickly generate maintainable, ready-to-integrate code.

  • The AI Difference Explanation

    The AI Difference Explanation

    The AI Difference Explanation feature intelligently analyzes and summarizes changes between Siemens TIA Portal project versions. Instead of showing raw diffs, it interprets modifications across program blocks, hardware configurations, and tag tables, explaining what changed, why, and how it might affect system behavior. This helps engineers quickly understand project evolution during code reviews, troubleshooting, and audits—without manually inspecting every change.

  • AI Operators to automate tasks on the platform

    AI Operators to automate tasks on the platform

    AI Operators in the SDA Factory Agent automate platform tasks like code analysis, change detection, and documentation generation across multi-vendor PLCs, translating complex Structured Text or Ladder Logic into plain language for faster troubleshooting, onboarding, and informed updates—without vendor lock-in or manual effort.
