Factory Maintenance, Without the Desk Work

Cut the desk work out of factory maintenance.

Built for small and mid-sized maintenance departments using Meta display glasses and Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2. Capture notes, photos, parts needs, job status, and proof at the machine instead of walking back to a PC.

The problem

The PC is slowing down the floor.

Every walk back to a computer costs time. Every late note loses detail. Every missing photo creates another call. TradesOnly Bots keeps the record with the repair while the technician is still at the machine, using the glasses and tools they already carry.

The system

The machine becomes the workstation.

01Capture

Use smart glasses to capture machine context, voice notes, photos, and proof without leaving the floor.

02Update

Send status, parts needs, repair notes, and blockers from the floor in seconds.

03Close

Close the work order with proof, safety checks, follow-up, and records already attached.

04Save time

Reduce office trips, duplicate typing, end-of-shift paperwork, and missing job details.

Built for the floor

No more stopping the job to feed the computer.

Technicians capture the repair as they do it. Photos, notes, status, parts, and proof stay connected without making the worker sit down and rebuild the story later.

Built to scale

Built for crews, supervisors, and plants.

For techniciansSpend less time typing and more time fixing machines.
For supervisorsGet floor updates without calls, texts, or waiting on paperwork.
For factoriesReduce downtime by capturing the right information during the repair.
For ownersCut admin waste and build an operation that runs on clean records.

Time is the product

Turn desk-heavy maintenance into floor-first execution.

For the right workflow, a job that drags across a full day can be compressed into a one or two hour process because the technician is not rebuilding the record later.

1–2htarget job window

Remove: walking back to the PC, duplicate typing, photo hunting, update calls, and end-of-shift catch-up.

Add: glasses capture, quick status updates, proof during the repair, and clean records the office can trust.

Before TradesOnly

Work leaves the floor.

  • Technician walks back to a PC.
  • Photos live in camera rolls.
  • Notes are typed after the repair.
  • Supervisors chase status by call or text.
  • Records are incomplete or delayed.

After TradesOnly

The floor becomes the system.

  • Smart glasses capture what the tech sees.
  • Updates happen beside the machine.
  • Parts, safety, and proof stay attached.
  • Supervisors see blockers sooner.
  • The job closes with a clean record.

Meta smart glasses used as the capture layer for factory maintenance workflows
Real Meta glasses
Capture layer for the floor

Glasses supported first

Designed around Meta display glasses and Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2.

The glasses are the capture layer. TradesOnly Bots is the workflow layer: job context, status, notes, photos, parts, proof, and supervisor visibility.

The future

The best maintenance system works where the breakdown happens.

TradesOnly Bots saves time by moving computer work into the repair flow: glasses capture, quick updates, proof of work, parts context, and complete records while the job is still fresh.

Best next step

Start with a factory workflow review. Move into a paid pilot when the use case is clear.

We look at one maintenance workflow, find where time is being lost, then define a small pilot around smart-glasses capture, floor updates, proof of work, and supervisor visibility.
