An operating system, layer by layer
IIOS is structured as a stack. Each layer has a single responsibility, and every layer above reasons over the structure defined below it. Nothing sits beside the model — everything is a view into it.
Five layers, one model
Read top to bottom: applications resolve to reasoning, reasoning resolves to the graph, the graph is normalized by the ontology, and the ontology is fed by continuous ingestion.
Application Surface
ICEDashboards, search, and agents render as views into the model — assembled on the platform, not integrated beside it.
Reasoning Runtime
ICRInference operates over structure. Dependency tracing, anticipation, and explanation run against the live graph.
Industrial Knowledge Graph
IKFEntities, relationships, events, and evidence — the durable, appreciating asset at the center of the system.
Industrial Ontology
ISGA shared vocabulary from market to system, component, material, technology, process, and equipment.
Ingestion & Signals
PipelineFilings, contracts, investments, disruptions, and research continuously reshape the graph as the economy shifts.
Why the stack is shaped this way
The model is the product
Applications are disposable; the graph is not. Value accrues to the structure, so the structure is the primary artifact.
Reasoning over retrieval
The runtime doesn't just fetch — it traverses. Conclusions are derived from paths through the graph, not from keyword matches.
One vocabulary, everywhere
A single ontology normalizes every source, so a material in a filing and the same material in a contract resolve to one entity.
Always ingesting
The graph is never finished. Continuous signals keep it aligned with the industrial economy as it changes.
Views, not silos
Every workspace and role is a projection of the same model — there is no separate copy to drift out of sync.
Explainable by construction
Each layer preserves provenance downward, so any conclusion can be traced to its evidence.
