Manufacturing quickstart

Get a Manufacturing workspace answering questions in under ten minutes. When you pick "Manufacturing" during onboarding, Sema installs the Manufacturing semantic pack so the glossary already speaks your language.

1. Pick your sector

On the onboarding wizard choose Manufacturing. This loads draft glossary terms and governed metric candidates such as:

  • OEE
  • First Pass Yield
  • Scrap Rate
  • MTBF
  • MTTR

2. Connect data (or explore the demo)

Connect a Postgres source, or click “Explore demo data” to load the bundled sample warehouse. Discovery profiles your schema and generates audit-grade definitions.

3. Promote pack terms

Open Glossary, filter by the “business” kind, review the draft terms and promote the ones you use to Active. Do the same for metrics under Semantics → Metrics.

4. Ask your first question

Show OEE by line for the past month.

Sema plans the SQL grounded in your glossary and verified joins, runs it read-only, and auto-charts the answer.

Active metrics resolve by name and synonyms in chat, and add a confidence boost to the plan.
