Software Toolbox: industrial connectivity, DataOps, and AI agents for plants, utilities, and data centers.

Connect anything. Find any PLC driver.

140+ drivers for PLCs, RTUs, meters, and building systems. Priced online, licensed in minutes, and backed by engineers who answer the phone.

The OPC server sites have trusted for 30 years.

TOP Server connects 140+ device families to OPC UA, OPC DA, AVEVA SuiteLink, MQTT, and SQL with unlimited tags, redundancy, and millisecond updates. One server, one namespace, one support team.

Move OPC data across any boundary, intact.

Cogent DataHub tunnels OPC data across firewalls and network segments with no DCOM and no inbound ports. Both sides connect outbound to a DMZ mirror, store and forward covers every leg, and native connectors write straight into AVEVA PI, InfluxDB, SQL, MQTT, and the cloud.

Make IT systems act on plant events.

OPC Router turns a plant event into a defined, guaranteed unit of work: production orders and recipes from SAP down to the PLC, and counts, confirmations, traceability, and labels back up. Native SAP over RFC and IDoc, two-way REST, SQL, Kafka, Snowflake, and MQTT, configured graphically and buffered if the target is down.

The industrial DataOps platform to govern and contextualize data.

N3uron models your plant in ISA-95, publishes a unified namespace over MQTT and Sparkplug B, and governs it at the edge with roles, security, and store and forward across 50+ modules. Sold, deployed, and supported by Software Toolbox, the authorized US distributor.

Agents that deliver insight and augment your decisions.

chatUNS.ai puts agents on your live unified namespace. They watch availability, performance, quality, and cost around the clock, surface what is abnormal with the chart that explains it, and recommend the action. Connect MQTT, Sparkplug B, i3X, or MCP sources in minutes.

Fix any industrial connectivity problem in seconds.

jonjon.ai is trained on 250,000+ resolved support cases and 30 years of product manuals. Paste the error, upload the log, and get a step-by-step fix, with an engineer one click away.

Pick the outcome. See the stack that delivers it.

Outcomes climb the stack. Start with a driver on the PLC, converge IT and OT, make the data AI-ready, then put agents on the line. Choose yours and the layers that deliver it light up.

Industrial connectivity
Connect to any industrial device

The best enterprise-grade industrial AI products on the market.

Three products, one stack. Each runs on the connectivity and unified namespace underneath it, reads OT data without ever writing to it, and is supported by the same engineers who deploy the stack.

jonjon.ai
Industrial connectivity agent

The first line of support for any driver, protocol, or OPC problem. Paste the error or drop in the event log and jonjon walks the fix with you, then hands off to an engineer the moment a human is needed.

  • Trained on 250,000+ resolved cases and 30 years of manuals, including TOP Server, Kepware, and AVEVA documentation.
  • Reads uploaded log files and your OT environment context: drivers, versions, security policies, and what connects to what.
  • Step-by-step guided resolution, with upgrade guides from TOP Server V5 and V6 to V7 built in.
  • In the loop on every ticket: first reply, triage, one-click escalation to an engineer, closeout, and CSAT.
  • Ask us about running jonjon as the support agent for your own products or integration practice.

chatUNS.ai
Insight and decision agents

Agentic AI on your live unified namespace. Each agent owns an outcome, checks the data on a schedule, surfaces what changed with the chart that explains it, and recommends the action to the people who can take it.

  • Provision an agent for any outcome or asset. It checks every 15 minutes and reports to the right people until the problem is solved.
  • Every finding arrives with its evidence: Pareto, loss waterfall, fishbone, box plots, and control charts drawn from live data.
  • Recommended actions, not just alerts: what to do first and what to explore next, routed to maintenance, quality, or the shift lead.
  • Press start for a fleet-wide scan of what is abnormal, tied to availability, performance, quality, and cost.
  • Connect MQTT, Sparkplug B, i3X, and MCP sources in minutes, and link historians so agents look back as well as live.
  • Priced by site, not by seat, with unlimited connectors and data at every tier. Start with the 90-day Prove It trial.

OrangeSpark.ai
Agents for critical processes

For the processes that carry the heaviest cognitive load, OrangeSpark deploys a team of digital workers that watch a line or a cross-cutting process around the clock and drive the OEE outcome you name.

  • Bespoke agents for one line or one cross-cutting process: changeovers, defect detection, golden batch, energy.
  • Trained on your process data, with your process experts in the loop before an agent acts on anything.
  • Outcomes measured where the plant measures them: availability, performance, quality, and cost per unit.
  • Runs on the same drivers and namespace as the rest of the stack, so there is nothing new to wire.
  • Early access: pilot sites in food and beverage are shaping the first agents ahead of general availability.
Early access program. Built by the team behind chatUNS.ai and jonjon.ai.

Built for the industries we have served for 30 years.

The same drivers, data platforms, and agents, tuned to what each industry measures.
