Trusted Industrial Data
Timebase Historian
Operational decisions begin with trustworthy data. Timebase Historian collects and stores industrial time-series data from across your operation, making it available through modern APIs without licensing constraints or proprietary lock-in.
✓ Free forever
✓ No tag limits
✓ No user limits
✓ Open APIs
✓ High-performance collection
why make the historian free?
Timebase Historian will always be free because we believe your operational data should never be limited by a licensing model. For decades, manufacturers have been forced to decide what data to capture based on budget instead of engineering value. We built Timebase Historian to remove that tradeoff entirely.
You have our commitment that the following historian components will always remain free for you to use, regardless of the number of implementations, sites, or users.
Shared Operational Understanding
TIMEBASE ATLAS
Data tells you what happened, but understanding tells you why it matters.
Timebase Atlas uses knowledge graphs to model the relationships between assets, processes, materials, people, systems, and information so your organization has a reusable understanding of how the operation actually works.
Instead of rebuilding that knowledge for every dashboard, integration, or AI project, you build it once and use it everywhere.
- Cross-system relationships
- Reusable knowledge models
- Historical context
- Open graph queries
- AI-ready context
With reusable knowledge, every new data project starts from a solid foundation instead of having to rebuild business rules and expert know-how from scratch.
Built For Growth
SOLVE THE SCALING PROBLEM
Manufacturing systems continue to multiply. Plants add new equipment, software, facilities, and data sources every year. Timebase was designed to grow with that complexity instead of becoming another silo.
Whether you're connecting a single production line or standardizing dozens of facilities, the same platform and models continue to scale.
One of the biggest costs in manufacturing isn't collecting data. It's repeatedly rebuilding the same operational knowledge. Every dashboard, report, analytics project, AI initiative, or system integration begins by answering the same questions.
- What equipment is this?
- Where did this data come from?
- What process does it belong to?
- How is it related to everything else?
Timebase captures that understanding once, making it available across every current and future initiative.
Ready for AI
MAKE YOUR AI WORK
AI doesn't struggle because manufacturers lack data. It struggles because data alone doesn't explain how the operation works. Timebase provides the context AI needs to reason about equipment, processes, relationships, and operational history instead of forcing every AI project to build its own understanding from disconnected systems.
SOLVE THE AI SCALING PROBLEM
74%of companies struggle to achieve and scale value from AI.

AI isn't held back by a lack of models. It's held back by fragmented operational knowledge. Timebase provides the trusted data and shared operational understanding that help AI move beyond isolated pilots to enterprise-scale value.
