Introduction
Overview
Copia Automation brings modern DevOps tooling to industrial automation, standardizing processes to drive quality, efficiency, and uptime at scale.
Quality: Copia drives quality by enabling teams to capture issues earlier in the development lifecycle and better leverage team expertise.
Efficiency: Copia breaks the one-engineer-to-a-project paradigm, enabling you to apply your talent where and when it’s needed most. Engineers can easily move between projects and work simultaneously on the same code base.
Uptime: Copia provides visibility into when code changes and why. The last working version is instantly available to accelerate recovery during operational disruptions.
