Two apps.
One platform.

Root Cause AI and NConform — RCA, CAPA, layered process audits, and ISO-aligned compliance, built for the plant floor. See everything we put on the floor.

Built for the floor.
Not for procurement.

5W

Plain language

Operators and technicians use the app from day one. No certified administrators, no consultant invoices, no 12-hour onboarding.

ISO

Standards-first

ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS9100, ISO 45001. Audit trails, evidence capture, and revision control built in — not bolted on.

1st

Mobile-native

Built for hard hats and gloves. Capture photos, voice notes, and signoffs where the work actually happens.

Built for the people
who run the floor.

Built for the four roles that actually live with the consequences of bad quality data — not the people who buy software, the people who use it.

Quality Managers

Stop chasing CARs in email.

See every open CAPA, NCR, and audit finding in one dashboard — with the evidence chain attached, ready for the next surveillance audit.

Plant / Ops Managers

OEE, downtime, fixes — live.

OEE trends, downtime root causes, and corrective actions in one view. No more waiting for the weekly report or the Monday standup recap.

Maintenance Leads

Plain English. AI does the rest.

Your techs describe the failure in their own words. The app walks them through the 5 Why on the spot — no certification, no training class.

EHS / Safety Teams

Audits, training, incidents — tied.

Layered process audits, training compliance, and incident investigation all aligned to ISO 45001 — and linked back to the root cause that triggered them.

Start free.
Scale when ready.

Mobile-first for crews and individual contributors. Web dashboards when you need a single pane of glass. Enterprise rollups when you're running multiple plants.

Why conversational RCA changes the equation

Most RCA tools start with a blank fishbone diagram. Root Cause AI starts with a question: "Tell me what happened." Here's why that matters on a noisy floor.
