Maintenance and operations software for industrial plant and mobile equipment
Maintenance software that remembers every machine.
Pre-starts, inspections, work orders and requests, done where the work is. Each one becomes part of the machine's record, so the next person starts with what the last one learned.
- Fixed plant and mobile equipment
- In daily use on live deployments
- Built in Australia
A machine's page. The Related band is what other teams have on it right now; the timeline is everything that has happened to it. Fictional data.
How a job becomes history
One failed pre-start item, followed all the way through.
Work is captured where it happens, connected to the machine as it moves, and kept in order afterwards. Every screen is the real product.
Step 1 of 5. Fictional machine, real screens.

Most of Mainte, at a high level, at your own pace.
Short recorded walks through the working product: Today, a machine's record, the work, the phone, safety, people, costs and the assistant.
Familiar work, one record
The work your team already does. One machine, one address.
Nothing needs explaining to someone who has run a workshop. What is different is where it all ends up.
- Work orders
- Open, in progress, on hold, complete. The close-out note becomes the service record on the machine.
- Requests and approvals
- Anyone raises one against a machine; a supervisor approves, defers, or turns it into a job without retyping.
- Inspections and pre-starts
- One item at a time, photo where required, signature to finish. Runs offline and syncs later.
- PM schedules and parts
- Due by date or by hour meter, with stock and locations. The same rules apply from a screen, an email or the assistant.
A pump is one record. From Plant it shows what is happening; from Maintenance, what work it needs; from Safety, whether the controls are in place; from Costs, what it has committed. What another team owns appears on the machine only when it matters right now.
- Plant or FleetWhere is it, and is it fit to work?
- MaintenanceWhat work is needed, and what has happened?
- SafetyAre the controls in place, and can we prove it?
- PeopleWho is cleared, for what, and is it current?
- CostsWhat are we committing to, and what has it cost?
Same machine, same address. The rail says where you are; the Related band says what matters here.
Know the asset
What is known about a machine, kept where the machine is.
History, evidence and documents accumulate on the record, not in someone's folder. That is what makes the second year more useful than the first.
The timeline
Readings, checks, findings, notes and services, most recent first, with who recorded each and where it came from. A photo or a note can be added from the field.
Findings that recur
A finding stays open until a person confirms and resolves it. It carries a failure tag, so the same fault coming back is counted, not rediscovered.
What the documents say
Mainte reads the manuals, certificates and reports you already have and files procedures, parts, warnings and compliance dates against the machine, each pointing back to its page. A person reviews an extraction before it becomes a checklist or a schedule.
Or ask
Type or talk, on the page beside your work. The assistant answers from the record and your own documents, names the page, and opens it. Asked to change something, it says what it is about to do and waits. If it cannot ground an answer, it says so.
- "What's the story with EXC-014?"
- "Show me overdue PMs"
- "What's abnormal in the plant right now?"
- "What does the manual say about changing the boom hose?"
Ask Mainte. The citation opens the manual at the page.
Beyond the workshop
Safety, people, cost and the plant itself, on the same record.
Each is a place to work with its own question. None is a separate system.
People and risk
A stood-down machine, or one carrying an unresolved critical defect, refuses the next pre-start on every screen. If Mainte cannot check, it says so. HSEQ events are reported in the words of the person who was there and actioned as ordinary requests. The competency register says who is cleared, for what, and whether it is current, including people without a login. Mainte records evidence; authorisation stays the employer's decision.
Cost
A receipt is photographed on the job. Mainte reads it; a person with the authority confirms it. Each cost belongs to a project, a machine, a work order or a purchase order. Bank statements are matched, and what does not line up is shown as a list of things to decide. Confirmed costs export to Xero as draft bills; Xero stays the accounting authority. Costs are not yet rolled up per machine.
Live plant
Where fixed plant is connected through Mainte Edge, each machine's condition is shown in five words on the plant overview, the mimic and the plant-room kiosk. The limits are your engineers' limits; a reading past one becomes a job with the reason attached. Edge can only read, buffers through an outage, and a dead sensor stays a gap on the screen.
The competency directory: ready, due soon, action required, not evaluated. HSEQ and Competency are modules; a site without them sees neither.
In the field
A phone, a QR label and a machine.
Scan the label and the machine's page opens: status, stand-down, outstanding defects, the pre-start, report an issue. The basics work before anyone signs in.
- Five things on the bar.
- Today, Work, Scan, Inspect, Assets. The phone never carries the desktop's navigation.
- Works without signal.
- Pre-starts and inspections run offline, with photos, and sync when the connection returns.
- Apps, labels, kiosk.
- iOS and Android apps, printed QR label sheets, and a read-only plant-room kiosk for fixed plant.
Today: what was I doing, what needs me.

Trust
Built to be checked.
The decisions that keep the record worth relying on, and the answers your IT and procurement teams will ask for.
It cannot touch your plant
Mainte reads. It cannot start a pump, move a setpoint or acknowledge an alarm.
Your engineers set the limits
Condition comes from the thresholds the people accountable for the equipment already set.
Every answer names its source
The manual, the page, the record. An OEM procedure, a technician's note and an AI observation are labelled as what they are.
If it doesn't know, it says so
No invented values, no last-known-good held on a screen. A gap in the data stays a gap.
Security. Primary data is stored in Sydney, encrypted in transit and at rest, on an isolated deployment per customer. Role-based access is enforced the same way for the screen, the API and the assistant, with a full audit history of who changed what and when. Controls are designed to meet the Privacy Act 1988 and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme and follow ISO 27001-aligned practice as we work toward external assessment. We label alignment as alignment and answer security questionnaires for procurement.
Running today
In daily use on live industrial deployments.
Fixed plant and mobile fleets, in production, in Australia. Real plant data, real documents, and changing conditions and failed checks turned into maintenance work with the evidence kept intact.
- 150+live equipment channels
- Pumps, dosing lines and process instruments, read continuously from live plant.
- 24/7acquisition, through outages
- Readings are buffered on site when the internet drops and delivered when it returns, with their original timestamps.
Mainte was built by an engineer with more than a decade on heavy machinery, fixed plant and maintenance operations, who has been accountable for the machines, the maintenance quality and the evidence. It comes from the fragmented tools still used to manage critical equipment: history in folders and inboxes, knowledge that leaves with the person, no single place to see what happened.
Questions
The questions a maintenance team asks first
Bring one machine.
Bring one machine's paperwork: the manual, the last few service reports, an inspection or two. We'll show you what Mainte does with it, and what the record looks like a year in.
Pricing scales with the equipment you manage, not the seats you fill. hello@mainte.ai
