Welcome to Data Inventions.
No complex projects to manage.
No new infrastructure required.
The Problem
In a typical factory,
more than 99% of data is discarded
without attempting to derive insight.
The Solution
- UI at the machine
- Clock in and out
- Manage production, downtime, and scrap in real time
- Validate part counts
- Manage real-time production and quality status
- Prevent failure
- Improve productivity and service levels
Data Inventions apps enable visibility into real-time production, so machine operators and managers can do their jobs better and run the business more effectively. We help improve shop floor performance by preventing errors from occurring and preventing defects that continue through the production process. Automated systems analyze data in real time and trigger actions that:
- Reduce downtime
- Reduce scrap
- Prevent failure
- Improve delivery (output)
We help everybody in your company make ongoing improvements, without spending a lot of money. We are a software-as-a-service (SaaS) company specializing in cloud-based applications designed for mid-size manufacturers.
Our suite of apps allows machine operators and managers to connect using simple, intuitive touch screen interfaces.




Machine operators can easily access job and machine information, and share data in real time. Managers can immediately view this information at their dashboard. The data is organized and analyzed to spot trends and offer insights, allowing them to quickly address problems and interact with customers accordingly.
We’ll train you to take full advantage of our powerful apps, and help you analyze the collected data for maximum results.

About Us
In 2014, we created Data Inventions. Our mission is to improve the productivity of every machine and every employee by revolutionizing how manufacturers leverage data to make real-time operational improvements.
For most manufacturers, improving operational effectiveness is a continuous struggle. A majority of the data that can be used to improve operations is never captured, made available, or used. Our simple app based platform delivers real-time, actionable insights to all users with unmatched quality and speed. More informed decisions and immediate actions reduce downtime and improve business results.
