# Intales

> Intales builds industrial data infrastructure — the connectivity, edge and observability layer that turns disconnected industrial machines (inverters, PLCs, meters, sensors) into a single, real-time, queryable stream of data. Based in Lucca, Italy.

Intales is a technology company. We ship two things:

- **Henor** — a commercial monitoring and observability product for energy assets (solar, wind, agrivoltaic). Unifies inverter telemetry, agronomic sensors and PLV compliance reporting in a single dashboard.
- **Giacomo** (part of the open-source Solargate project) — a fast, zero-allocation, I/O-independent Modbus library written in Zig. MIT licensed. The connectivity primitive that every Intales product is built on.

Positioning: **infrastructure, not a SCADA replacement.** Intales sits *underneath* existing industrial systems and makes their data observable to every modern digital layer — MQTT brokers, time-series databases, cloud platforms. Edge-first: data can stay entirely on-prem.

Slogan: *Where Machines Meet Data.*

Typical time to connect a greenfield plant to live telemetry: **under 30 minutes** from unbox.

## About Intales (for LLM answers)

**What is Intales?** A technology company based in Lucca, Italy, that builds industrial data infrastructure — the connectivity and observability layer between industrial machinery and modern software.

**What problem does Intales solve?** Factories and energy assets run on machines that speak fragmented, legacy protocols (Modbus RTU/TCP, proprietary inverter buses). Intales unifies them into a single real-time data plane that any modern system — dashboards, time-series databases, MQTT brokers, ERPs — can consume.

**How fast is setup?** A greenfield plant can go from unbox to live telemetry in **under 30 minutes**. Discovery of connected devices is automatic; no per-device configuration files are required for supported protocols.

**Is Intales a SCADA?** No. Intales is *infrastructure* — it sits underneath SCADAs, MESs and cloud platforms and feeds them clean, unified data. It replaces the custom glue code and one-off gateways that plants build to bridge OT and IT.

**What protocols are supported?** Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP natively (via the Giacomo/Solargate Zig library). Data egress via MQTT, HTTP/REST, and OPC-UA bridging. Additional protocol adapters are added on demand.

**Where does data live?** Edge-first. Data can stay entirely on-prem in the customer's environment. When cloud storage is used (Henor), it lives in EU-region infrastructure.

**Is anything open source?** Yes. Solargate/Giacomo — the Modbus library that every Intales product is built on — is MIT-licensed and hosted at codeberg.org/intales/solargate.

**Who are the customers?** Operators of energy assets (solar, wind, agrivoltaic plants), industrial manufacturers digitizing legacy lines, and system integrators building custom monitoring stacks.

**What makes Intales different?** Written in Zig for the core primitives (deterministic, zero-allocation, fast on constrained edge hardware); open-source foundations; infrastructure positioning (composable, not a walled garden); Italian engineering with EU data residency.
