Firefighting eats the day
Field teams spend 55% of their time reacting instead of improving operations.
The Causal Intelligence Platform for Semiconductors
Understand it. Resolve it. Prevent it.
ThirdAI Automation connects your operational data into one causal engine that turns multi-day investigations into decisions made in minutes.
Who we are
The Intelligence Layer Behind Every Resolution.
ThirdAI Automation is the Causal Intelligence Platform (CIP) for semiconductor ecosystems. One causal engine and knowledge graph power every module connecting diagnostics, process intelligence, defect analysis, and operational execution through shared causal intelligence.
Every investigation strengthens the platform. Every resolution enriches the knowledge graph. Every decision becomes reusable engineering knowledge.
Trusted across semiconductor fabs, equipment makers & field-service teams

The problem
Finding the root cause is only the beginning.
Field teams spend 55% of their time reacting to unexpected equipment issues. Complex failures stall for days on the one expert who has seen it before. Even after the cause is known, coordinating engineers, approvals, and service workflows delays recovery.
Field service engineers spend
55%of their time
reacting to unexpected equipment issues instead of preventing them.
The senior engineer is the bottleneck
Complex failures escalate to a handful of experts, and investigations stall waiting for experience.
Knowledge walks out the door
Critical expertise lives in email, Slack, and people's heads, not in any system you own.
Execution is disconnected
Diagnosis, approvals, service coordination, and field execution happen across different tools, slowing resolution.
Service & aftermarket contributes 33% of revenue for leading semiconductor equipment manufacturers. Every delay between root cause and resolution increases downtime, SLA risk, and operational cost.
The platform
The Causal Intelligence Platform for Semiconductor Ecosystems
A Unified Platform for Smarter Operations.
Every module runs on the same CIP Core - a shared causal engine and knowledge graph. Documents, sensor logs, images, and operational data become one evidence layer, while every investigation continuously improves the next.

Our journey
Research, innovation, and impact on the line.
Causal Intelligence isn’t a feature we bolted on - it’s the foundation the company was built on.
Built for semiconductor operations
Designed from day one for the complexity of fabs, equipment manufacturers, and field service organizations.
Causal, by design
A shared causal engine and knowledge graph that explain why failures happen - and retain expertise long after investigations are complete.
From intelligence to execution
Connecting diagnostics with operational workflows through Causal Resolution Orchestration and AI-powered Field Service Management.
Customer proof

Questions from the fab floor.
How is Causal Intelligence different from correlation-based analytics?
It models cause and effect across your operational knowledge graph, so you get the true driver with the evidence behind it - not just a correlated signal that leaves engineers guessing.
How long does a pilot take?
A typical pilot runs 60-90 days on your own operational data, with measurable impact on RCA cycle time by the end of the engagement.
Where does our data live?
Deploy in your VPC or fully on-prem / air-gapped - data never leaves your environment. We hold SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and CCPA.
Which systems does it connect to?
MES, SPC/FDC, historians, EDA & yield, PLM, CMMS, and ticketing - all feed the CIP Core evidence layer through standard connectors.
Do we need a data-science team to run it?
No. Enterprise MLOps governs fab-specific models for you, so engineers work inside the resolution workflow instead of notebooks.
