What HighByte does

HighByte is a software company in Portland, Maine. It says it develops Industrial DataOps software that helps manufacturers prepare operations data for artificial intelligence.

Its main product, Intelligence Hub, handles data modeling, transformation and delivery between factory systems and enterprise systems. HighByte says it works at the edge and needs no code, and it is built around connections, models and pipelines.
