Customers change their orders late, shelf life limits how far ahead you can produce and shared lines lose time to cleaning. Zentio is the agentic manufacturing OS: its agents put a cost on every stop and long washdown, check where a late order fits best and hand your planners a draft to approve.
Zentio works alongside the systems you already run. It reads your orders, the state of your lines and the allergen matrix you keep in Excel.
A customer changes an order after cut-off. Your planner rebuilds the production sequence by hand and checks every cleaning rule again.
The scheduling agent drafts a new sequence within your cleaning rules and shows which deliveries still hold before you approve it.
Explore planning and schedulingStops, washdowns that run long and low yields go into the shift log. Planning reads about them after the next batch has missed its slot.
Operators report output and every stop with its reason at the line terminal, with or without an MES. Zentio updates the schedule the moment they do.
Explore the shop floorNew, seasonal and temporary staff fill gaps on the lines. Before each shift, your shift leads confirm by hand that every one of them is trained for the line.
The workforce agent checks every assignment against the qualification matrix before the shift and proposes a trained colleague for any gap.
Explore qualificationsYour most experienced operators know which product changes need a full clean and how long cleaning really takes on each line. When they are off shift, the planner has to guess.
Zentio keeps the rules your team confirms, and the scheduling agent follows them in every plan. When the cleaning times recorded at the line drift, the master data agent proposes new ones.
Explore knowledge managementWhen a customer increases an order, the scheduling agent finds a slot within your cleaning rules and shows every batch that moves. The current plan stays active until you approve draft v24.
Zentio lists the hygiene training and briefings that are missing or due, with the shifts they affect. Your shift lead sees every gap before the roster goes out.
The Agentic Twin is Zentio’s dynamic model of your plant, from the machines on each line to your allergen and cleaning rules. Specialist agents share it to plan every batch, staff shifts with trained people, test a Saturday shift before a promotion and keep cleaning times current.
Inside the Agentic TwinPlanners, shift leads and operators set the rules and make the decisions Zen brings to them.
Zen answers questions, handles routine work within the rules you set and asks your team for every decision beyond them.
They do the work behind each answer: scheduling, scenarios, staffing or master data.
It holds everything from machine states to the rules your team confirms.
Your ERP, MES, machines and Excel files stay in place and feed the Agentic Twin with orders, routings and machine states.
Each pass leaves the Agentic Twin more precise.
Zen reads the Agentic Twin to show what changed, which delivery dates are at risk and where you lose time and capacity. Each answer keeps recorded facts apart from assumptions.

Zentio connects to ERP systems such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Infor, Proalpha and abas, reads line states from your MES or over OPC UA and imports and exports Excel. During your evaluation, we confirm how EDI orders, recipes and best-before dates reach Zentio.
No. Zentio reads orders from your ERP and line states from your MES or over OPC UA, and your line control stays as it is. Zentio adds scheduling, terminals and shop floor screens, and it writes changes back only along a path you agree on with us.
Zentio stores your data in Germany, or in another region if you prefer, and is GDPR compliant. ISO 27001 certification and the TISAX assessment are in progress. Zentio works with all common large language models, or with one you host yourself. Your data is never used to train the models. Your team decides what Zentio reads, and during the evaluation we agree on which recipe data the plan needs, such as the allergens per product.
Yes, with the one whose production sequence your planners rebuild most often. Bring one question about that line and the data behind it: orders, the allergen matrix, cleaning rules and shift calendars.
