IFS gets Theloops to launch an industrial AI workforce

summary

June 26, 2025 – IFS announced the acquisition of Theloops, a leading provider of enterprise cloud and industrial AI software and a cutting-edge innovator of autonomous AI agent technology. By applying the Theloops agent functionality in an industrial environment, IFS will become the first vendor to provide an AI agent platform built specifically for the mission-critical assets and processes that the industry relies on.

Theloops’ IFS acquisition marks the transition from enterprise software that tracks work to software that does the work. This is the first enterprise-grade AI agent platform designed to provide measurable ROI as a co-pilot, not as a co-pilot, while restraining security and governance from day one.

IFS CEO Mark Moffat commented: “The opportunities AI presents to mission-critical industries are immeasurable, but they need to be structured around real value capture. The agent capabilities provided by Theloops can translate into customers’ processes, operational efficiency, and how they can distinguish between the moment they deliver to their customers.” “Our customers can leverage intelligent digital teammates who understand their business from day one, intelligent digital teammates who speak industrial languages, adhere to rules, and operate firmly in their workflows. Celop offers a platform that is both feasible and available for industrial agents.

Theloops Acquisition TurboCharges IFS solution provides a multi-agent environment where autonomous AI agents are synthesized and governed, as well as semantically recognize their operating environment. By incorporating these AI agents into the industrial suite, IFS creates a digital workforce built for the regulated, asset-intensive sector. Combining the Theloops AI Agent platform with knowledge from the IFS industry creates agents.

People who understand industry and business semantics line up with humans, working with specialized agents across domains that integrate customer-defined security, data access and compliance standards.

As a result, there is a new era of automation, intelligent agents continuously search, reason, and action, streamline operations, increase capacity, and free up skilled workers for high-value tasks. This allows for truly autonomous decisions and execution beyond traditional AI pattern recognition and prediction.

Somya Kapoor, CEO of Theloops, said: “At Theloops, we were trying to provide AI that promotes action as well as insight. By joining our efforts with IF, we bring that vision to a whole new level, together we provide an autonomous agent for AI that understands the real complexity of the industrial environment. Experimental, it is extremely exciting to bring this innovation to customers around the world.”

Aly Pinder, IDC, Vice President of Research for Aftermarket Services Strategy: “AI is disrupting our world, but there is no significant potential impact anywhere in the industrial environment. This change in each industry that serves — not only is it smart, but it also gives birth to situationally aware, operationally impactful and intelligent automation.”
