Connected operations or a maintenance-first platform?
Both products connect work with assets and procedures. MaintainX focuses on maintenance operations and work orders. ACT is a broader operations workspace built around projects, work items, site context, and review.
ACT is preparing for early access. The checklist describes product capabilities; access is by invitation.

When ACT may fit.
Consider ACT when teams coordinate a mix of inspections, service work, projects, and site operations, with a shared task model and review process.
Join the waitlistWhen MaintainX may fit.
Consider MaintainX when maintenance is the center of your operation and you need an established CMMS, including its wider maintenance capabilities.
Does ACT replace a full CMMS?
Not in every operation. ACT includes assets, recurring work, checklists, and review, but does not currently include the full inventory, purchasing, or condition-based maintenance scope a CMMS may provide.
