The Evidence
Specific workflows our customers actually run.
Each use case names the persona, the trigger, the modules in order, and the quantified outcome. Tagged by which solution it belongs to and which vertical it serves. Sourced from current operator IR (Devon, EOG, Continental, ConocoPhillips Q4 2025) and live WorkSync deployments.

Trigger6 AM Tuesday. Prices moved $4 overnight. Three wells alarmed. Fixed routes don’t know.
OutcomeSame headcount, +12% production seen sooner, 30%+ fewer empty miles. EOG calls this "Production Optimizers."
