Graph-Co
Alternative: Multi-Platform vs COMOS-Only
Graph-Co serves Siemens COMOS customers exclusively: P&ID to COMOS conversion as the only workflow. Pathnovo serves COMOS + AVEVA + Hexagon + Bentley + SAP + Maximo + Cognite + Wrench + Aconex + plain Excel + JSON output. Multi-platform output, 15+ document types (P&IDs, isometrics, datasheets, HAZOP studies, mill certificates, plus more), 99.5% contractual SLA, transparent credit-based pricing (full platform on every paid tier), Indian + Gulf delivery, Indian regulatory layer (IBR / OISD / PESO / CCOE). For COMOS-pure ecosystem buyers, Graph-Co's narrow specialism is a valid choice. For most owner-operators with multi-vendor histories or non-COMOS targets, Pathnovo's broader scope wins. See pricing for plans.
Multi-Platform Output (Not COMOS-Only)
Graph-Co's output target is Siemens COMOS exclusively. Pathnovo emits structured data for COMOS + AVEVA AIM + Hexagon HxGN SDx2 + Bentley iTwin + SAP PM + IBM Maximo + Cognite Data Fusion + Wrench SmartProject + Oracle Aconex + plain Excel + JSON + CFIHOS XML + ISO 15926 RDF. Most owner-operators have multi-vendor histories; Pathnovo extracts uniformly across all source formats and feeds whichever AIM / EAM / DataOps platform the customer has chosen, with no platform lock-in.
15+ Document Types (Not P&ID-Only)
Graph-Co handles P&IDs only (the conversion-to-COMOS workflow). Pathnovo handles 15+ engineering document types: P&IDs + isometrics + datasheets + HAZOP studies + mill certificates + valve lists + I/O lists + line lists + equipment lists + MDR + IBR Form IV + PESO Form XIV/XV + vendor data books. Full EPC project document scope, not single-workflow tool.
99.5% Contractual SLA + Named Customer Benchmarks
Graph-Co claims 99.9% accuracy on COMOS conversion specifically; methodology + named-customer benchmarks not publicly published. Pathnovo's 99.5% measured accuracy on McDermott live engagement (10,247 tags / 600 P&IDs) is the largest published P&ID extraction benchmark with field-level audit + bounding-box source evidence. Different commitment model: contractual SLA + verifiable named-customer benchmarks vs marketing accuracy claim. See /benchmarks for full methodology.
Indian + Gulf Delivery + Regulatory Layer
Graph-Co is Germany-based with European customer focus. No India / Gulf operating presence or regulatory expertise. Pathnovo has Indian PSU rate-card compatibility (IOCL, BPCL, HPCL, ONGC, GAIL), Gulf NOC delivery (ADNOC, Aramco, Petronas, KOC), and Indian regulatory bundle (IBR Form III/IV, OISD 118 HAZOP, PESO Form XIV/XV, CCOE licence registers) included in every Indian + Gulf engagement. For Indian + Gulf process industry customers, Pathnovo is materially differentiated.
Transparent Credit-Based Pricing
Graph-Co's pricing is custom per-engagement (not publicly published). Pathnovo's pricing is transparent on our pricing page: credit-based, full platform included on every paid tier. Annual contracts get 25% more credits at the same monthly price. Free 14-day trial with 100 credits before commercial commitment. Predictable cost-of-ownership for procurement budgeting. See pricing for plans.
Pathnovo Also Outputs to COMOS
For COMOS-committed customers needing both P&ID-to-COMOS conversion AND broader engineering document scope, Pathnovo's COMOS-compatible output covers the conversion workflow alongside isometric / datasheet / HAZOP / mill cert workflows that Graph-Co does not address. Pathnovo + Siemens COMOS coexist; Graph-Co alone covers only the conversion layer. See /alternatives/comos for the broader COMOS comparison framing.

What does Graph-Co do?
Graph-Co (Germany, est. ~2020) is a niche P&ID-to-Siemens-COMOS conversion specialist. Their workflow: AI-driven extraction of P&ID content into object-oriented COMOS models, claimed 99.9% accuracy. Managed service delivery from Germany. Narrow but deep specialism: only P&ID-to-COMOS conversion, only Siemens COMOS as the output target. Targets process industry customers committed to Siemens COMOS as the engineering backbone.
Is Pathnovo a Graph-Co alternative for COMOS customers?
Yes, with broader scope. For COMOS-committed customers needing P&ID-to-COMOS conversion plus broader engineering document scope, Pathnovo provides COMOS-compatible output for the P&ID conversion workflow + isometric MTO + datasheet extraction + HAZOP register + mill cert traceability + procurement intelligence chain + Indian regulatory bundle (IBR / OISD / PESO / CCOE). Graph-Co handles only the P&ID-to-COMOS conversion layer. For owner-operators with multi-vendor histories (where some plants are on COMOS, others on AVEVA / Hexagon / Bentley / legacy AutoCAD), Pathnovo's multi-platform output is materially more flexible than Graph-Co's COMOS-only specialism.
Can Graph-Co handle non-COMOS engineering platforms?
No. Graph-Co's product is purpose-built for Siemens COMOS as the output target. AVEVA AIM, Hexagon HxGN SDx2, Bentley iTwin, Cognite Data Fusion, SAP PM, IBM Maximo are not addressed by Graph-Co's product. For owner-operators on these platforms (the majority of the global market), Graph-Co does not fit; Pathnovo's multi-platform output covers all of them with consistent extraction quality and CFIHOS 2.0 + ISO 15926 native output.
Does Graph-Co offer non-P&ID document workflows?
Graph-Co's published focus is P&ID-to-COMOS conversion specifically. Isometric MTO, datasheet extraction, HAZOP register extraction, mill certificate traceability, and procurement intelligence workflows are not addressed by Graph-Co's product. For full EPC project document scope across 15+ document types, Pathnovo is the integrated alternative; Graph-Co handles one workflow within that scope (P&ID conversion to COMOS) for COMOS-committed customers.
How does Graph-Co's 99.9% accuracy claim compare to Pathnovo's 99.5%?
Different scopes + methodologies. Graph-Co's 99.9% claim is on COMOS conversion specifically (a narrower workflow than Pathnovo's broader extraction-to-multi-platform). Methodology, audit process, and named-customer benchmarks for Graph-Co's accuracy claim are not publicly published. Pathnovo's 99.5% is field-level measured on McDermott live engagement (10,247 tags / 600 P&IDs) with independent QA audit, per-sheet bounding-box source evidence, and contractual SLA + remedy clause. Different commitment models: Graph-Co marketing claim, Pathnovo verified contractual benchmark. See /benchmarks for full methodology.
Is Pathnovo as deep on COMOS as Graph-Co?
Graph-Co's specialism is COMOS ecosystem depth (object hierarchy modelling, COMOS attribute mapping, COMOS rule engine integration). For COMOS-pure ecosystem buyers needing the deepest COMOS-native conversion, Graph-Co's specialist depth is unmatched. Pathnovo's COMOS output is sufficient for the conversion workflow but does not match Graph-Co's narrow specialism. The trade-off: Pathnovo gives you 80-90% of Graph-Co's COMOS specialism + 100% of the broader engineering document scope (15+ document types, multi-platform output, Indian regulatory layer). For most owner-operators, the broader scope wins. For COMOS-pure customers with no other engineering AI scope, Graph-Co's specialist depth may be the right call.
What's the pricing comparison?
Graph-Co's pricing is custom per-engagement, not publicly published. Pathnovo's pricing is transparent on our pricing page: credit-based, full platform included on every paid tier. Free 14-day trial with 100 credits before commercial commitment. For procurement teams comparing total cost-of-ownership, Pathnovo's transparent credit-based pricing is materially easier to budget than Graph-Co's custom-engagement model. See pricing for plans.
Can Pathnovo and Graph-Co coexist?
Yes, in narrow cases. For COMOS-committed customers wanting Graph-Co's specialist COMOS conversion depth on the P&ID workflow specifically + Pathnovo's broader scope on isometrics + datasheets + HAZOP + mill certs + procurement intelligence + Indian regulatory bundle, the two can run in parallel without functional overlap on those scopes. Most COMOS-committed owner-operators evaluating both products converge on Pathnovo for the broader scope; Graph-Co's specialist depth becomes optional rather than essential when Pathnovo's COMOS-compatible output is good-enough for the conversion workflow.
