MaintainX Assist can help you identify issues with your assets.
You can upload a picture of an asset and ask MaintainX Assist to identify potential issues. The AI assistant analyzes the image and provides observations, along with follow-up actions to help remediate the issue.
To support MaintainX Assist with its analysis, you can provide additional context about the situation and clearly prompt the outcome you are seeking.
For example, let's say you notice a truck in your facility is leaking, you can take a picture and provide contextual details such as:
Truck started leaking a red liquid after operating for two hours. Fumes are coming from the engine compartment. Provide guidelines to safely isolate the truck and clean up the liquid on the ground.
Based on the image and information you provided, MaintainX Assist can:
- Identify possible causes of the issue.
- Recommend safety precautions.
- Suggest next steps.
- Create a work order or procedure that you can edit and add to your workflow.



MaintainX Assist can make mistakes. It's your responsibility to carefully review and validate all recommendations.
