Generate complete instrument indexes from P&IDs in 48 hours instead of 8 weeks. AI extracts every tag, populates datasheets, and delivers directly into your project format.
Upload P&IDs. Receive a complete instrument index with tag numbers, types, ranges, locations, and loop assignments. 48-hour turnaround vs 8 weeks manual.
Extracted tag data automatically populates instrument datasheets with operating conditions, set points, and material specifications from the P&ID and related documents.
DCS I/O lists generated from extracted instrument data. Signal types, ranges, and alarm set points derived from P&ID and datasheet cross-referencing.
Control valve lists, safety valve registers, and equipment schedules auto-generated with complete specification data.
Complete instrument index with tag number, instrument type, service description, P&ID reference, loop number, location, and specification data.
Instrument datasheets populated with process conditions, material specs, and set points extracted from P&IDs and specification documents.
DCS and PLC I/O summaries with signal types, engineering units, alarm limits, and trip set points.
Control valve and safety valve schedules with sizing data, actuator specs, and fail-safe positions.
Instrument loop assignments extracted and validated against P&ID loop designations and C&E matrix references.
Track instrument additions, modifications, and deletions across P&ID revisions. Delta reports for change management.
Generate instrument index from 5,000+ P&IDs in days instead of months
Auto-populate instrument datasheets from extracted P&ID data
Build DCS I/O lists with signal types and alarm set points
Create control valve and safety valve schedules for procurement
Validate tag consistency across the instrument index, P&IDs, and datasheets
Track instrument changes across P&ID revisions for MOC
Auto-populate instrument datasheets from P&ID data. Process conditions, material specs, and set points extracted and mapped to standard datasheet formats.
Generate complete DCS, PLC, and SIS I/O lists directly from P&ID instrument data: signal types, ranges, engineering units, alarm set points, trip set points, loop assignments, and safety classification derived automatically. The only tool globally that produces configuration-ready I/O lists from PDF or scanned P&IDs, including C&E matrix cross-referencing and SIL classification. Works for any control system: Yokogawa Centum, Honeywell Experion, Emerson DeltaV, Siemens PCS7, ABB 800xA, Rockwell PlantPAx.
Auto-generate control valve lists, safety valve registers, manual valve lists, and equipment schedules directly from P&ID data. Complete specification data (size, rating, material, trim, actuator, fail position, Cv, set pressure, orifice letter, inlet/outlet sizing) extracted automatically and formatted for RFQ, PO, and handover packages. ASME VIII, API 520 / 521 / 526 compliance built-in. Works on any P&ID format including scanned legacy drawings.
Pathnovo generates a complete instrument index from P&IDs in 48 hours, compared to 4-8 weeks for manual compilation. This includes tag extraction, datasheet cross-referencing, and output formatting.
Tag number, instrument type, service description, P&ID reference, loop number, location, range, material, process connection, signal type, and safety classification. Additional custom fields can be added per your project requirements.

Manual instrument index compilation for a typical EPC project with 5,000-10,000 P&IDs takes 4-8 calendar weeks with a team of 3-5 engineers. The process involves reading every P&ID, manually entering tag data into spreadsheets, cross-referencing datasheets, and performing QA checks. Pathnovo automates this to 48 hours with 99.5% accuracy, 60x faster at higher quality.
For a mid-size EPC project, manual instrument index preparation costs $150,000-$400,000 in engineering hours, produces 90-95% accuracy with no SLA, and requires weeks of rework when P&ID revisions arrive. The hidden cost is delayed handover, every week of delay can cost the contractor 1-2% of contract value in liquidated damages. With Pathnovo, the same workflow runs on credit-based pricing with the full platform included on every paid tier, and a free 14-day trial to validate accuracy on your own drawings before any commitment. See [our pricing page](/pricing) for full plan details.
Yes. Pathnovo's AI extracts instrument tags from P&IDs with 99.5% field-level accuracy using models trained on ISA 5.1 conventions. The system generates complete instrument indexes including tag numbers, types, ranges, locations, loop assignments, and safety classifications. Output integrates directly with SAP PM, SmartPlant Instrumentation, and AVEVA.
