Canvas, the system of operations
One straight answer about what is happening in your operation.
Canvas sits between your ERP and your BI. It brings what your systems, sensors and people know into one resolved picture, then starts the right response when something needs doing. Your integrator deploys it in days, not months.
Running in production

- locations on a toll-road licence-plate system

- toll-booth cameras on that system

- years that system has been in operation
Why it matters
The question takes three people and an afternoon.
Where are today's deliveries, which of them are late, and what is it costing us? The answer is in the gate log, the ERP, a spreadsheet and somebody's head. Your people are the integration layer, and the answer is only as current as the last time they compiled it. Canvas takes the compiling out.
The platform
Connect. Understand. Visualise. Act.
Bring every system in without a project for each one.
Each system connects through its own sandboxed runtime. Cameras, recorders, fire panels, sensors, accounting and files all arrive in the same place, with your sensing inputs alongside.
- Milestone, Dahua, ONVIF and IMOU video, bridged and never recorded by Canvas
- BACnet, MQTT, Edwards fire panels and Advantech I/O
- New systems added from their API documentation
Resolve many systems into one picture.
The Data and Context Engine builds a model of your operation from your own data: places, assets, vehicles and people, and how they relate. The same truck or person seen by different systems becomes one record.
- A model built from your schema, with your corrections kept
- People and vehicles resolved across systems
- The customer holds the data inside their own perimeter
Ask a question. Get the chart.
Type what you want to know and Canvas builds the dashboard. It gives straight answers inside a domain, and sends reports on a schedule to the people who need them, in the channel they already use.
- Dashboards from a sentence, no query language
- Reports by LINE, Telegram or email on a schedule
- Canvas data readable from Power BI
Start the right response, not just the alert.
When a condition is met, Canvas opens the ticket, retrieves the procedure and tells the right person, in LINE, Telegram or Microsoft Teams. Flows can wait for a person to approve a step.
- SOPs drafted for review, started by conditions across systems
- Tickets with SLA clocks and step checklists
- Automations that notify people by text
Solutions
Built for three kinds of operation.
- For the plant or operations directorManufacturingSee what is happening on the plant floor and at the gate, and what it is costing the plant.
- For the facilities directorFacilitiesOne view of the whole building: building management, fire alarm, solar, facility management and cameras.
- Delivered through partnersCity / Municipal OperationsThe response layer on top of the data platform the city already runs.
Mitsui Bussan
Every supplier truck, from gate to dock and out again.
At the Samut Prakan factory, Canvas joins every plate read into one live timeline per truck. Operations sees where a truck is, how long it has been on site, and is alerted when it overstays.

How it deploys
Days, not months, through your integrator.
Canvas is delivered by systems integrator partners who already know your site. It does not ask you to replace what you run.
Your partner installs Canvas
A Windows installer, Docker on Linux, or cloud and hybrid. It runs inside your perimeter.
Connect what you already have
Cameras, recorders, building systems, sensors and business systems join through their connectors.
See one picture
Dashboards and maps show the resolved state of the operation, and answer questions in plain language.
Start acting on it
SOPs, tickets and chat notifications start the right response at the right moment.
Works with the systems you already run.
Canvas adds to what you have. It is not a rip and replace.
