Copia Automation provides a Git-based version control system tailored for PLC programming, combining source-control discipline with automated safeguards for industrial control code. Engineers store PLC programs in a Git-like repository, commit changes with context, and review updates using visual diffs, while DeviceLink continuously backs up running programs and shows change history in a central dashboard. Unlike general software versioning tools, Copia targets system integrators, machine designers, and in-house ops teams with a built-in workflow plus automatic backups for live control software. Its goal is to standardize PLC development, improve collaboration, boost operational reliability, and speed recovery after disruptions.
