The best FDD on the market. Your foundation for AI-powered facilities.
The same information model and expert-system diagnostics that make Clockworks the most trusted Fault Detection and Diagnostics (FDD) platform in the industry are what make real AI-powered automation possible — not a chatbot bolted onto basic data.
THE INDUSTRY'S BEST BUILDING ANALYTICS SOFTWARE.
Clockworks’ Fault Detection and Diagnostics platform plugs into existing building systems, analyzes thousands of data points, and pinpoints the highest impact performance issues, complete with diagnostics.

"This is the essential foundation for AI-Powered Facilities that AI-wrapper software can't provide. Clockworks combines meaningful knowledge with automated action to deliver valuable outcomes"
ONE GLOBAL MODEL, 50+ EXPERT SYSTEMS
We’ve taken the largest, connected asset portfolio in the world and normalized it against a physics-based global information model. The result is the most accurate root-cause diagnostics on the market today.
01 — The Global Model
A consistent way to describe every asset, everywhere
99% of the built environment contains completely unstructured data, with no standard applied. The same sensor can be described twenty ways. Clockworks normalizes it all into one machine-readable model, and it gets smarter with every building onboarded.
02 — Expert Systems AI
Physics-based models, running continuously
Expert systems encode real engineering knowledge—thermodynamics, heat transfer, control logic—instead of statistically guessing. Clockworks has 50+ expert systems that have been growing more intelligent over the past fifteen years with every new building or piece of equipment onboarded.
Foundational Data
AI on
basic data
Built on tags and trends alone
Inconsistent point names, duplicate assets, spreadsheets and paper as-builts. Put agentic AI on top and it just turns basic data into more noise.
A LIFETIME OF ASSET INTELLIGENCE FOR EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT
Clockworks creates a trusted historical record of health for all your assets that powers informed decision-making across all facilities functions.
Maintenance Management
Balance and implement reactive, preventive, condition-based and predictive strategies
Asset Management
Better decisions on replacement timing, system sizing, deferring or escalating work, and capital plans
Building Automation
Systematically find and fix BAS issues, at any level of in-house controls expertise
Energy & Sustainability
Targeted, measurable and defensible savings through a data-driven workflow
Risk Management
Assess and adapt to risk—from production, to compliance, to business, to services
Compliance Management
Proactively manage deviations and record compliance conditions for regulators
Business Management
Correlate asset health with business outcomes such as patient satisfaction, manufacturing reliability, student outcomes, utilization, and profitability
A validated foundation providing asset intelligence to every stakeholder.
EXPERT AI OUTPUTS — THE FUEL FOR REAL ACTION DOWNSTREAM.
Four real examples of what runs on top of the foundation above.
Leverage the data to reduce work
The ask
“Review all my ASHRAE 180 tasks this year and show me which can run continuously, shift to condition-based, be deferred safely, or must stay manual.”
16.5%
Automated outright
3,919 task instances a year now performed continuously by the analytics
25.3%
Converted to condition-based dispatch
6,019 instances, sent to named equipment instead of a route
27.2%
Deferred when healthy, under §4.5.4
6,471 instances, longer intervals backed by a documented record
31.0%
Irreducibly manual
7,373 instances of safety, chemistry, combustion and physical work
Of that load can be automated, made condition-based, or deferred — while the equipment stays healthy.
Prioritize your day — Sprocket, Clockworks’ AI chat
“What should my team focus on today?”
Sprocket
- AHU-3 static pressure holding 72–91% below command — cascading to VAV airflow shortfalls downstream
- Hot water loop running ~15°F above reset schedule on 100% of days this month
- 79% of terminal-box PM load now eligible for exception-based dispatch instead of a calendar visit
Worst offenders — avoidable cost, trailing 30 days
ANALYZE YOUR BUILDING — MCP + CLAUDE
“Run an energy audit summary for our campus and flag the top control-sequence issues.”
Sprocket
Analyzed 40 buildings, 1.88M sq ft, using 12 months of operational data. Found $340,867 in avoidable cost — 91% is a control-sequence fix, not a capital project. Top 3: AHU unoccupied-period shutdown, eliminating simultaneous heating/cooling, heat-pump loop shutdown optimization.

Bldg2_AHU-3 has multiple related control and airside faults that are likely interacting: the unit shows a stuck/static minimum outdoor air damper condition, economizer logic problems (running when it should be off, low lockout, missing high-limit enthalpy sequence), inconsistent static pressure control, and major heating/cooling overlap including a very large likely preheat valve leak or control issue plus possible cooling valve leakage.
These issues are driving the biggest energy waste, with comfort impacts from poor static pressure control, elevated return air humidity, and low outside air at times. The best corrective path is to first fix the core control/valve sequencing problems, then verify fan/static pressure control, and only then confirm sensor calibration and any remaining mechanical damper faults.
- The (pre)heating coil and cooling coil are either providing excess heating or cooling or operating simultaneously.
- This may have wasted around $939 ($537 in heating and $402 in cooling) and 74,102 kBTU total over 1 day(s).
- Pre-heating coil valve leaking or stuck open.
- Cooling coil valve leaking or stuck open.
