Who it’s for

Built for the teams that own the line.

Operators carrying Part 192 / Part 195 obligations — and the integrity, compliance, and engineering people who have to answer for them.

Regional midstream & terminals

Gathering, transmission, and storage operators managing integrity across long-tenured assets.

Integrity managers · IM coordinators · VP Ops

Gas operators — LDC / transmission / gathering

Part 192 obligated, often with no in-house integrity department to lean on.

Gas superintendents · DIMP / TIMP leads

Aviation fuel logistics

Fuel farms and terminals running on standards, SOPs, and a thin compliance bench.

Facility managers · operations leads

Corrosion & integrity engineers

The people making the call on which code controls — and signing their name to it.

API 510 / 570 / 653 / 579 · NACE / AMPP

Also serving the technical-sales teams who quote into these operators — and adjacent regulated technical fields (chemical & coatings, electrical & industrial distribution) that run on their own documents.

The problem, in your language

The knowledge exists. Finding and defending it does not.

Your records hold the answer. They just hold it in spreadsheets, email chains, and the heads of people heading for retirement.

The experienced integrity guys are retiring — and there isn’t a funnel coming up behind them.

Decades of judgment about which code controls and why never made it into a document. When they walk out, it walks with them.

Up to 70% of operating knowledge is tacit and at retirement risk.

PHMSA / DIMP audit prep is tested when the inspector knocks.

When records live in spreadsheets, email chains, and file cabinets, the evidence is scattered — and indefensible under modern scrutiny.

Typical prep: 2–4 weeks of senior-engineer time.

Half the data you’d cite, you can’t trust.

Readings taken at inconsistent points, run to run, make a clean comparison hard — and a defensible disposition harder.

Engineers lose 3–5 hrs/day reconciling and searching.

Which code controls depends on your jurisdiction.

API 571 lists about 70 damage mechanisms. Which one applies — and which standard governs — shifts by service and state line.

A wrong call carries safety and liability consequences.
How it helps

Apps that do the integrity work.

knowledgeXpert ships as focused apps built on your own documents — each one produces a cited answer or a finished, defensible deliverable, including purpose-built integrity apps like ILI Expert and Dig Expert.

Integrity Record Q&A

Ask plain questions across ILI runs, dig reports, MOCs, and inspection histories. Cited answers in seconds, not file cabinets.

Audit Evidence Builder

Assemble the records, procedures, and citations a PHMSA or DIMP inspector asks for into one defensible package.

Standards & Damage-Mechanism Lookup

Narrow ~70 API 571 mechanisms to what applies in your service and jurisdiction — with the controlling code cited.

Spec & Code Cross-Reference

Resolve a line call-out to the controlling code and matching spec — checked against your own standards, not a web index.

On the Marketplace

Start stocked with cited PHMSA data.

Your team doesn’t open to a blank box. knowledgeXpert ships with cited public pipeline knowledge already loaded — so a lean midstream, integrity, or gas team has the reference set the majors take for granted, day one.

PHMSA incident reports

3,900+ pages of federal pipeline-incident investigations — what failed, why, and the findings, cited to the report. Ask whether a failure mode has shown up before.

PHMSA technical reports & data

The agency’s own technical analyses and pipeline-safety data, ready to query and cite.

Title 49 CFR pipeline-safety regs

Part 195 and Part 192, cited to the controlling clause — alongside the PPIM / Clarion integrity library.

Your records, alongside

Your ILI runs, tank records, DIMP plans, and procedures come in as your documents — every answer cited to both the PHMSA source and your file.

Ask “has this failure shown up in PHMSA incidents?” and get the investigation findings, cited — next to your own records.

How it works

Cited answers over your own documents.

No model training on your data. No generic web index. It reads the records you give it, and nothing else.

Step 01

Upload your records

Integrity reports, ILI runs, dig sheets, codes, SOPs, manuals. PDFs and spreadsheets — into your own tenant.

Step 02

Configure governance & roles

Set who sees what, lock answers to approved sources, and decide where it runs — cloud tenant or air-gapped on your own hardware.

Step 03

Deploy to your team

Integrity, compliance, and ops ask plain questions and get cited answers — every one linked to the exact page it came from.

Built for a wrong answer that matters

Governed, not generic.

A wrong disposition has safety and liability consequences. So every answer is traceable — and your records never have to leave the building.

Runs air-gapped on your own hardware

Deploy fully offline. Your integrity records never leave the building — built for operators who can’t send documents to the cloud.

Cited to the clause

viewXpert links every answer to the exact page and section it came from. Verify in one click — no black box, no guessing.

Governed, not generic

SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001. Your documents stay in your own tenant — no training on your data, no leakage to a shared model.

What a pilot involves

We set it up live on a slice of your own records, you ask the questions your team actually asks, and you see the citations before anyone signs anything.

Common questions

Straight answers.

It only sees the documents you control — your integrity reports, codes, and records — never the open web. It cites every answer to the exact clause and page, and when something isn’t in your records it says “not in your records” instead of guessing. Copilot is capable, but it has never read your integrity manuals.
Yes. Your documents stay in your own tenant, and we do not train models on your data. For operators who can’t send records off-site, knowledgeXpert runs air-gapped on your own hardware — records never leave the building. SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001.
Most teams go from first record load to a live, queryable knowledge base in under 30 days. A scoped pilot on a slice of your records can be running in days.
Pricing is simple and transparent — $100 per seat per month, with usage pooled across your team and no surprise overages. Deployment model (cloud tenant vs. air-gapped on-prem) is scoped separately. See the full breakdown on the pricing page.
