Ketryx for Robotics

# Build safer robots, faster.

Ketryx connects to your existing development tools to automate safety documentation, create real-time traceability across the IEC 61508 safety lifecycle, and enforce functional safety processes — so teams achieve certification faster, without reworking their toolchain.

The Reality

## Robotics software is exploding in complexity. Safety documentation hasn't kept up.

Cross-domain traceability is manual and unmanageable.

Robotics safety cases must trace across hardware, firmware, embedded software, and AI/ML models. Teams manually construct traceability matrices spanning DOORS, Git, VectorCAST, and Excel — a gap in any link can fail an assessment.

Certification preparation consumes months.

Preparing the safety case documentation package for third-party assessment is one of the most time-consuming activities. Safety managers must manually compile evidence from multiple systems, ensure consistency, and address gaps — often discovering issues late that trigger rework.

EU AI Act compliance has no established playbook.

Robots with AI/ML capabilities will be classified as high-risk AI systems under the EU AI Act, requiring technical documentation, risk management, and conformity assessments. Most robotics companies have no existing infrastructure to meet these requirements — on top of existing IEC 61508 obligations.

How Ketryx Works

## One platform that connects functional safety to development.

### Real-time traceability from hazard analysis to verification.

Safety requirements must be traceable from hazard analysis through safety goals, safety requirements, implementation, and verification evidence. Ketryx automatically creates and maintains that traceability chain across Jira, Git, and TestRail in real time. No more manual trace matrices — your Safety Case stays current as your team works.

### AI agents that cut safety documentation time by 90%.

Ketryx AI Agents understand IEC 61508 work products and functional safety documentation requirements. They generate Safety Plans, Safety Requirements Specifications, and V&V evidence as a byproduct of your normal development workflow — not as separate manual activities that take months.

### Safety impact analysis in hours, not weeks.

When an ML model changes, a new SIL assignment is made, or a hazard analysis is updated, Ketryx identifies the full downstream impact across architecture, implementation, tests, and risk documents in minutes. You see the full blast radius before the change is accepted — critical when every AI/ML model update triggers a safety review.

Ketryx for Robotics

## Your robotics engineers didn't become engineers to populate traceability matrices.

Every month spent on manual safety documentation is a month not spent building safer robots. Ketryx gives that time back.
