Wired or Wireless InstallationThrive is plug and play. We send you everything you need, and your team completes the install in just a few hours. There’s no server or PLC required, and our team is here for support.
Know whether your lines are running, how efficiently they’re performing, and the cause and length of any downtime event. You can tell at a glance with our clean, easy to use dashboard.
DashboardThrive gives you the information you need to make data-driven decisions on equipment maintenance, purchasing new equipment and more. Our dashboard shows live and historical efficiency data, and our unique algorithm prioritizes downtime issues to help you maximize production. Built-in reports offer volumes of insight, giving you multiple ways to view the data and providing clear guidance on how to reduce downtime.
In less than 10 seconds, operators can assign a reason code for any downtime event and provide optional comments, right from the shop floor. All it takes is a device with an Internet connection, including a tablet or smartphone.
Reason CodesNo two production lines are alike, which is why Thrive has an unlimited number of reason codes, including options for planned downtimes. Each layer can be configured to meet your needs, and our team is here to provide guidance and best practices.
Reason codes are easy to add and update instantly. With only three levels of detail, operators can quickly assign a code and you can easily analyze the information.

we identified several key issues with our manufacturing line. Once corrected, our efficiency sky rocketed from 39% to 75%.

so I consider it a win. Now we’re in a position where our other plants are interested in implementing the software.
- Pete Szelwach, Plant Manager at Lassonde Pappas and Company, Inc.
Changeovers that used to take 33 minutes now only take 23. With around two each day, that time really adds up. Before using the software, we were 20 minutes into our morning shift before lines started running, and we’ve cut it down to just 8 minutes. Overall efficiency has spiked from around 45% to an average of 60%. Seeing the data has really helped us create a culture of ownership and accountability. Everyone watches the measurements and does their best to make sure things are running efficiently, because they can see the impact. With the help of Thrive, we’ve had zero overtime during our busy season. That’s a company first! Now that we’re meeting production goals, we can be proactive and schedule time to take lines down for preventative maintenance.

2013 – “Not only did it offer everything the more expensive system did but it is a fraction of the price. We were even able to customize to our facility far within our budget.”
2015 – ”After 2 years I was still able to teach them a few big things about the software that they didn’t know about. A recent major success they had was they were able to reduce their downtime by 17 whole shifts per year by making a small tweak in a process. Instead of stopping a machine to make a fabric slice for 1 minute, they slowed the machine down to make the slice while the machine was moving. They also noticed how much downtime changeovers caused so their scheduled department reduced their changesovers from 6 to 1 per week.”
- Steve Kaiser, Operations Manager, Sage Products
By giving the operator real-time visibility, they took more ownership and responsibility for the machine’s output. As a result, it made the operator think twice about shutting down the line. ‘Can I correct this issue without shutting the machine down?
- John Batten, President, NHI Pullies Inc
We’ve been able to cut our overtime by 60% as we identified that our change overs were the main source of downtime. Using this data to determine and implement solutions we were able to move form 12 hours shifts to 8 hour shifts. Indirectly it also helped us dramatically reduce our quality issues by identifying sources of inefficiency within our mix process. Last but not least, the system has helped us hold our new equipment manufactures more accountable by providing them with focused feedback on their machines performance.
Thanks Thrive!

The planned downtime function immediately identified excessive breaks and created accountability for the line running. Management now has real-time data.
- Keith Frazier, Maintenance Supervisor, Skyline Steel
The real-time data in our break rooms and on our supervisor’s computers have created a real sense of urgency and ownership to improve our plant’s performance. You can’t argue with a 50 inch TV in the break room that updates every second
