Stage 2 Software Information

Houston is the AI-native continuous improvement platform for manufacturing. Houston is a configurable platform that helps industrial and manufacturing teams digitize and systematically improve their operations, from quality management and EHS incidents to CAPA, audits, and much more. Houston is built for the shopfloor, and owned by the shopfloor. Operational teams create digital processes, or apps, exactly to their needs — using a visual composer, a library of ready-made templates, or by simply describing what they need in plain language to our AI-driven builder. Data flows into these apps through mobile-friendly interfaces or automatically from 3rd party systems, then moves through configurable workflows with AI interpretation, task assignment, escalations, and approvals built in. Teams monitor process performance through interactive dashboards, kanban boards, calendars, and more. While work gets done in Houston, its improvement engine looks for improvement opportunities around the clock and pushes real-time alerts the moment something needs attention. For example, Houston surfaces similar incidents whose recurrence would otherwise go unnoticed, and then also suggests exactly the actions needed to resolve them, so teams solve incidents faster and build on experience instead of starting from scratch. Houston turns operational data into an end-to-end improvement loop, not just another tracking tool. The team behind Houston operates from Ghent (BE) and has spent more than fifteen years inside factories. Before Houston, we built Solvace, which was used by L'Oréal, Danone, AbbVie, and 100+ manufacturing sites worldwide. Learn more at gethouston.com.
