Arent Inc. announces that the official version of the P&ID (Piping & Instrumentation Diagram) parsing AI tool “PlantStream P&ID AI Data Extractor” (hereinafter “PlantStream AIDE”) will be released on March 1, 2026.
PlantStream AIDE was initially introduced as an early-access version by the former PlantStream Inc. in July 2025 and has since been evaluated and utilized by numerous customers.
Following the recent merger, the product will now be officially released as part of the Arent Group portfolio and provided as a cloud-based SaaS solution. Through continuous feature enhancements, we will further support efficiency improvements in plant design operations.
In the early stages of plant design, creating From-To information and organizing data from P&IDs requires substantial man-hours.
Arent developed PlantStream AIDE to automate P&ID analysis, streamline these tasks, and significantly reduce workload while improving quality in early-stage design processes.
Leveraging the Arent Group’s technological foundation and development capabilities, we will continue to enhance the product and improve service quality, contributing to our customers’ digital transformation (DX) initiatives.
PlantStream AIDE is a tool that automatically extracts and compiles piping connection information (From-To Lists) by simply uploading a P&ID.
By replacing conventional manual data creation processes, it dramatically accelerates the transition from From-To list creation to 3D model design.
Automatic P&ID Analysis
AI automatically extracts and lists lines, nozzles, equipment, and other elements.
One-Click Validation & Correction
Review extracted data on a confirmation screen and easily apply corrections.
Integration with PlantStream
Import From-To lists into PlantStream for seamless automated routing and 3D modeling.
Change Tracking Function
Detect changes in P&IDs and quickly reflect them in the 3D model.
Official Launch Date: March 1, 2026
Delivery Model: Cloud-based SaaS
