Product

One data model compiles into four products.

FDSIQ captures the design once. ScaffIQ, the Sequence Engine and the Perspective Engine compile straight from it, or run on their own. Nothing gets re-keyed between stages.

FDSIQ

Structured 10-step wizard. Tags defined once, referenced by dropdown everywhere after. AI validates the data, not the prose, and flags broken references before export.

FDSIQ
  input: structured wizard (10 steps)
  validation: AI, data-level only
  safety_functions: locked, ai_write=false
  export: .docx (client deliverable)
         .json (compile target)

ScaffIQ

Compiles I/O and tag declarations, either from FDSIQ's structured output or entered directly. Runs standalone.

ScaffIQ
  input: FDSIQ output, or entered directly
  output: I/O framework
          tag declarations

ScaffIQ Sequence Engine

Compiles PLC sequence code from the same structured schema. No hand-written logic to re-key.

ScaffIQ Sequence Engine
  input: structured schema
  output: PLC sequence code

ScaffIQ Perspective Engine

Reusable Ignition Perspective symbol templates and a ready-to-use overview page, compiled from the same structured schema. Structure and layout only, live tag connections are yours to make.

User Specs & Requirements

What you need to run any IQ product.

Nothing to install. Every product runs entirely in the browser, whether you're using FDSIQ, ScaffIQ, Sequence Engine or Perspective Engine.

Modern browser

A current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari. JavaScript and cookies must be enabled.

Reliable internet connection

25 Mbps or faster recommended. Every save, validation and compile is a live call, there is no offline mode.

Software to open your output

Word or another .docx viewer for FDSIQ, Studio 5000 for ScaffIQ and Sequence Engine, Ignition Designer for Perspective Engine.

A credit card with sufficient available funds

Held on file via Stripe, charged automatically at your first locked revision or compile. No manual invoice step.

A desktop or laptop screen

The structured wizards and checkpoint review screens are built for a real screen, not optimised for a phone.

Qualified engineers only

EngineeredIQ products are built for qualified engineers (Controls, Process Control, Systems Integration, EI&C or Applications), not as a substitute for one. The Engineer of Record must review and authorise every generated output before it reaches a live system, accepting full professional responsibility for the result.
