FROM DATA TO DECISIONS, WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK

Early Fault Detection
Get early, accurate detection without alarm fatigue. Our AI models are trained on 13+ trillion machine readings, and when combined with expert analyst oversight, identify real failure patterns.  

Prescriptive Insights
Make confident maintenance decisions using clear, prescriptive guidance from CAT II+ certified analysts who bring the accountability and clarity operations leaders expect.

Architecture That Scales
Keep equipment health in check with a high-density mesh network supporting thousands of sensors per gateway without signal degradation. Monitor individual assets, full facilities, or multi-site operations all within a single system.

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

Waites has become a core part of our reliability program. Across 600+ assets, we’re consistently detecting vibration-related issues early and addressing root cause issues, avoiding 483 hours of downtime in one year alone.

The metrics speak for themselves. I sleep at night because I'm not getting calls at 3 or 4 in the morning because a large piece of equipment has gone down.

02 DATA TRANSFERING

TETHERED SENSOR

The Waites tethered sensor is an ultra-compact, high-precision device that plugs directly into a node, enabling expanded coverage without requiring additional wireless connections. Its small form factor allows for placement in tight or complex spaces, ensuring comprehensive monitoring of critical assets while maintaining seamless data integration. Tethered sensors enable placement in hard to access locations including environments with high-speed rotating machinery and do not require batteries.
