Platform Layer 3

Friction Detection

Find what's slowing you down. Surface bottlenecks and prioritize improvements that actually matter.

Friction Detection showing process bottlenecks and efficiency scores

The Problem

Inefficiencies hide in plain sight. Bottlenecks aren't visible until they cause failures.

You're optimizing blindly—guessing where problems are instead of knowing. Process improvement initiatives target the wrong things because they can't see the real friction.

The Solution

See exactly where work slows down, why it happens, and what to fix first.

MakerBOS automatically identifies friction points across your operations, scores efficiency, and recommends where to focus improvement efforts for maximum impact.

What you get

01

Automatic Bottleneck Identification

AI analyzes your digital twin to surface hidden friction points that slow down operations.

02

Efficiency Scoring

Every process gets a score based on cycle time, handoffs, and complexity. Know where to focus.

03

Priority Recommendations

Get AI-powered suggestions on which improvements will have the biggest impact.

04

Trend Analysis

Track how efficiency changes over time. See if improvements stick and catch regressions early.

What you'll discover

Hidden Bottlenecks

Processes that cause delays downstream but never get flagged as problems.

Handoff Friction

Where work slows down as it moves between teams or systems.

Process Complexity

Workflows that have accumulated unnecessary steps over time.

Resource Constraints

Teams or roles that are overloaded and creating delays.
