Learn Ganter Lab
Ganter Lab reads your PLCs and instruments and turns their values into screens, alarms and tests that end in a PDF report, on your own Windows computer. Build it yourself, or ask an AI assistant to build it for you.

Each area, in the order a station is built
Connector
Connect your equipment
Pick the driver, point it at the device, and every reading becomes a tag with a live value in your units.
Logic
Add rules and alarms
Every value gets an address. Logic computes new values from them and watches what needs attention.
Process
Run tests and production
Describe a test once and run it on every bench. Each run ends OK or NOK.
View and dashboards
Build your screens
Put gauges, charts, buttons and equipment symbols on a grid and link each one to a live value.
Agent access (MCP)
Do it all by asking
Connect the assistant you already use. It speaks MCP, so it reaches the station directly.
Events
See what happened
Alarms, occurrences and interlocks each keep a timeline of every change, with who did what and when.
Validation
Find setup problems early
The program checks your whole setup on its own and lists what cannot work, before anyone runs into it.
Users
Decide who can do what
Roles decide what each person may see and change in every area, with the users kept on this station.
Remote access
Your screens on other devices
Any other computer or tablet on your network opens the station live in its browser, with nothing to install on it, each person on the screen they need.
Settings
Make it yours
Language, formats, look, brand, backups and updates of the whole station, on one page.
Account
Your account and license
Your Ganter account licenses this station, and the license keeps working without internet.
