MQTT Broker · AI-native · Industry 5.0
TBMQ-based MQTT broker, augmented with AI co-pilots, semantic routing, and federated-learning channels. Built for the Industry 5.0 era · where humans, machines, and intelligent agents share one data fabric. For equipment manufacturers, OEMs, and enterprises building reliable, AI-ready industrial backbones.
What you get
Why a broker for Industry 5.0
Industry 4.0 was about data acquisition. Industry 5.0 is about cognition. The broker is no longer a passive pipe: it routes meaning, surfaces anomalies on the wire, hosts AI co-pilots inline, and lets human operators steer autonomous systems with intent rather than commands.
Human + machine + AI on one fabric
Operators, control systems, and language-model agents share the same topic tree, the same auth surface, and the same audit trail. No bolt-on AI gateway, no shadow integration.
Cognitive routing
Topic-level decisions augmented with vector embeddings and semantic policy. Route by what the data means, not just where it came from. Anomalies flagged on the wire before they hit storage.
Sustainability-aware
Carbon-per-message metered. Carbon-aware region routing for federated workloads. Industry 5.0 also means resilient and accountable, not just smarter.
Reference architecture
A single MQTT plane that carries device telemetry, AI co-pilot reasoning, and human operator intent across multi-region clusters. Audit, identity, and observability are first-class, not bolted on.

AI-native capabilities
Inline AI co-pilots
Hostable LLM and small-model agents that subscribe to topics, reason over rolling windows, and publish back. No round-trip to a separate inference cluster.
Semantic routing
Vector-embedding topic resolution lets a publisher say what the message is about; subscribers receive what they care about, not what got typed in their topic filter.
On-the-wire anomaly detection
Lightweight detectors run inside the broker, flag anomalies before persistence, and route flagged messages to dead-letter or escalation channels automatically.
Federated learning channels
Privacy-preserving channels carry model gradients between sites without raw data leaving the fence. Aggregator runs in the broker; weights ship out.
Mutual TLS + cert-based auth
Every device, agent, and human operator authenticates with X.509. OAuth 2.0 / OIDC for human users, mutual TLS for fleet. Auth events stream to audit topics.
Human-explainable audit
Every routed message carries a "why this route" footprint that an LLM can summarise on demand. Compliance teams get plain-English audit instead of pcap files.
Edge-cloud bridging
Pair with X3EDGE devices in the field for store-and-forward, local AI inference, and offline operation. Bridges to AWS IoT, Azure IoT Hub, and GCP IoT Core.
Carbon-aware routing
Region-by-region grid intensity is fed into the routing policy. Stateful workloads can prefer the cleanest available region without operator intervention.
Cognitive policy engine
Combine declarative MQTT-rule rules with ML classifiers. Policies update without restart; canary policies run alongside production with shadow traffic.
Compute · Carbon · Accountability
Every message has a footprint. The broker measures it, routes around it, and reports it. Industry 5.0 is not just smarter cognition; it is accountable cognition. Per-tenant carbon ledgers, region-aware routing for federated AI, and edge-first filtering keep unnecessary bytes out of the cloud.
A CO₂e estimate is emitted alongside every message and rolls up per tenant, per topic, per region. Show your customers exactly what their fleet costs the planet, and bill or report on it directly.
Federated AI workloads can shift to the cluster running on the cleanest grid. Grid-intensity feeds drive routing policy; when wind picks up in eu-west, training shifts there automatically.
Anomaly detection and aggregation happen at the edge, so only the events that matter reach the cloud. Lower egress, lower compute, lower carbon, lower bill.
Reported per tenant. Auditor-ready for GHG Protocol Scope 2 and 3 framings.
Packaging
Pick the consumption shape that fits your business. The broker, the AI co-pilots, the audit trail, and the Industry 5.0 capabilities are identical across tiers · only the operating boundary changes.
Subscription
For teams that want to start in days, not quarters.
Multi-tenant managed cloud

White-label
For OEMs who want to ship a branded broker without building one.
Tiered by fleet size

Who it is for
Equipment manufacturers
Inverters, BESS, EV chargers, robots, CNC machines, instruments. Ship your hardware with an AI-ready broker behind it. White-label or co-brand. We carry the operational load; you carry the customer relationship.
Industry 5.0 enterprises
Manufacturers, utilities, logistics, mobility. Replace the legacy broker stack with one that hosts AI agents inline and explains itself. Migrate one site at a time; we run cluster-to-cluster bridges through cutover.
OEMs + system integrators
You build solutions; we run the backbone. Reference architectures for solar, smart furnace, building automation, and process industry. Joint procurement contracts welcome. Multi-jurisdiction compliance posture (MNRE · GDPR · UK GDPR · SOC 2) out of the box.
