Products

The TameChaos ecosystem

Studio is the experimental design system. Field takes the same core to the floor on Android. The edge runs what you designed, and the cloud oversees your fleet. Four distinct products on one shared core — adopt one or all, in any order.

The products

Four products, one shared core

Studio leads because it's where most people start — that's emphasis, not a sequence. Each product stands on its own and has its own page; begin with whichever fits your work.

Studio

The experimental design system: model a real-world system, draft its control topology, mock up operator HMIs, and produce industrial-quality documentation. Standalone by design — the edge is optional.

DesignPre-release

Mac · iPad · iPhone · Windows

Field

Studio for the field, on hardware that survives it. Field authors a real Studio project on site — no server, no Mac, no network — then adds an optional Edge companion, on rugged Android hardware.

Design · in the fieldEarly access

Edge

The edge server is the authoritative runtime: it executes your experiments and sensor arrays in real, simulated, or hybrid mode. The edge owns execution.

RunClosed beta

Edge server

Cloud

Non-authoritative oversight and aggregation: watch your edges and compare like-processes across them, plus zero-knowledge backup for Studio projects. Model improvement and publish-back come later.

Where to start

Four entry points, not four steps. There is no step 1 — you can stay in one product indefinitely.

Start with Studio if you're designing, specifying, or documenting a system.
Start with Field if you're authoring on site, walking a facility.
Start with Edge if you're running real or simulated experiments.
Start with Cloud if you're overseeing several edges or comparing like-processes across them.

Platforms

One core, five platforms

Studio runs on Mac, iPad, iPhone, and Windows. Field is the same core on Android, plus capability the other platforms don't have — which is why it's its own product, not a fifth Studio build.

Studio and Field are pre-release; this is the platform scope of the first release. A Studio project is the same project on every platform — you can start it on a phone in a plant and finish it on a workstation.

How they fit

Peers, not a pipeline

Field capture authors straight into a Studio project, and Studio can export to the edge — but it isn't a single left-to-right sequence. Three facts let you adopt one product or all of them, in any order:

How the runtime works

One shared core, distinct products

Studio and Field are distinct products built on the same design core and the same project format — and both stand alone, with no server or network required. Field adds what the other platforms don’t have: an optional Edge companion, and rugged hardware.

The edge is authoritative

The edge server owns execution — it runs your experiments. The cloud only observes and aggregates; it never starts, stops, or commands a run.

Your fleet, your data

Aggregation and model improvement are scoped to a single owner's fleet. Your fleet learns only from its own operation — no cross-tenant data or model sharing.

Why Studio leads, and what it doesn't mean

Studio comes first because it's the most common starting point — the edge is reordered in sequence, not in importance, and it remains the authoritative runtime. Studio owns design-time authority; the runtime owns execution; the two meet at a project package that describes itself. A design never overrules what a running system measures.

Start anywhere

Adopt one product or the whole ecosystem — in whatever order fits your work. This is the marketing front door; the platform lives in the app.
