01 / Why hands-free

A technician's hands are already full. 

Gloves on. Both hands on the job. Plant noise. A phone is the wrong instrument, and the terminal is fifty metres away.

01

Gloves and PPE

Touchscreens do not work through them.

02

Both hands busy

On a ladder or inside a panel there is no spare hand.

03

Noise and distance

Questions still get shouted across a plant floor.

02 / AI glasses

The interface is on your face. 

Consumer hardware: nothing bespoke to buy, certify or support. Pair once and Starlight is one sentence away.

Latency is the product. 

Measured on the production box on real sentences from our own agent. Starlight's voice runs on ElevenLabs Flash.

Quality that survives a plant floor

Clear consonants matter next to running machinery.

Turn-taking, not push-to-talk

A conversational STT model decides when the technician has finished.

Built on ElevenLabs

Starlight's voice layer runs on ElevenLabs, backed by a platform grant as we scale.

05 / In the app

Ask your glasses. 

The Starlight screen in MAAPS Mobile shows your glasses connected and listening, with one-tap shortcuts for the questions technicians ask most.

  • ✓Ask about the asset, procedure or fault
  • ✓Retrieve manuals, SOPs and history
  • ✓Explain a live alarm and its thresholds
  • ✓Look up parts, stock and open orders
  • ✓Raise and update work from the floor

People approve what happens. 

Starlight gathers the context and prepares the work. A person confirms before anything changes in MAAPS.

Scoped tool access

FAQ / Answers

Questions, answered.

What hardware does Starlight need?

MAAPS Mobile plus Meta AI glasses paired over Bluetooth. Starlight also works directly in the MAAPS Mobile app with one-tap shortcuts for the most common questions.

Does Starlight act on its own?

No. Starlight gathers the context and prepares the work — a person confirms before anything changes in MAAPS. Tool access is scoped, tenants are isolated, and every action is auditable.

How fast is the voice response?

About 165 ms to the first spoken word on ElevenLabs Flash, measured on our production setup with real sentences from our own agent.

Does it know my plant or just the web?

Your plant. Starlight resolves who is asking and which asset, then calls MAAPS directly through typed tools, so every answer is grounded in your live alarms, history, documents and stock.
