Cyzag

Digital shift logbook software for process plants.

Paper logs and spreadsheets lose context between shifts and can't be searched. Cyzag keeps one structured record of each shift beside the live process data and the open work.

What it does

Six things it does.

Built with No-code boards and viewsTask managementAI handover briefingNavigationAudit trail

  • Structured entries, not free text alone

    Process conditions, equipment, safety and handover notes, in the same format every shift.

  • Live process data beside the log

    Historian trends and KPIs beside the entries.

  • Open work carried across shifts

    Tasks stay open until someone closes them.

  • A handover the next shift can trust

    Sign-off with traceability, and a summary for the incoming shift.

  • Search years of shifts in seconds

    Find every time a unit behaved like this, and what the crew did.

  • An audit trail on every entry

    Every entry time-stamped and attributed.

How it works

How it works, in four steps.

  1. 1 Your engineers configure the logbook to the plant's own units, shifts and categories.
  2. 2 Read-only connections bring in the historian data and KPIs the crews need to see.
  3. 3 Crews log during the shift on desk, tablet or phone.
  4. 4 At handover, the incoming shift reviews the summary and signs off.

Questions

What buyers ask us.

How is a digital shift logbook different from a shared spreadsheet?

Entries follow a structure your engineers define, sit next to the live process data, carry open tasks across shifts and keep an audit trail of every change. A spreadsheet does none of those reliably, and is hard to search across years.

Does it replace our historian or MES?

No. Cyzag reads from them, read-only. The logbook adds the human record: what the crew saw, did and handed over.

Can we set it up to match our own shift pattern and categories?

Yes. Units, shifts, entry categories, forms and sign-off steps are configured by your engineers without code, and changed the week you need to.

Can operators use it away from the control room?

Yes. The same record is available on desk, tablet and phone. Rounds and forms in the Cyzag Field app also work offline and sync when the signal returns.

How does it help with the shift handover?

The handover draws on the log itself: priorities, open work and watch-outs for the incoming shift, with sign-off and traceability. Our article on shift handover covers the wider practice.
