logiccloud is a software-defined automation platform that replaces traditional hardware PLCs with cloud-based control, enabling engineers to generate executable PLC programs and HMI interfaces from natural language descriptions. The platform supports IEC 61131-3 standards, runs on edge or cloud infrastructure, and includes an AI assistant that reduces engineering effort by up to 80%. It targets industrial automation use cases such as manufacturing lines, energy grids, and building management.

Problem
Industrial automation projects traditionally rely on hardware-based programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that are tightly coupled to specific manufacturers, making systems inflexible, costly to scale, and slow to modify. Engineering teams face lengthy development cycles, manual programming effort, and complex commissioning processes that delay time-to-market and increase project costs.
Solution
logiccloud provides a cloud-based, software-defined automation platform that abstracts control logic from hardware, allowing engineers to design, deploy, and manage automation applications entirely in a browser-based IDE. Users describe requirements in natural language, and the integrated AI assistant generates executable PLC programs and matching HMI visualizations, significantly reducing manual coding. The platform runs control logic on edge or cloud infrastructure, connected via 5G or fiber, and supports IEC 61131-3 standards for broad compatibility. It enables real-time monitoring, remote management, and seamless integration with existing systems through standard interfaces, making automation projects faster, more flexible, and more cost-efficient.
Target Audience
Primary customers are machine builders, plant operators, and automation engineers in manufacturing, energy management, building automation, and intralogistics who need flexible, scalable, and cost-effective control solutions.
