Plantwin turns refinery historian data into multi-level dashboards for plant performance, equipment, utilities, energy, alarms, and engineer-defined KPIs.

Why it surfaced

This is unusually specific industrial software: a refinery operator can trace a plant-wide number down to its underlying tags, while engineers can define equations, rank alarms, test hypotheses in a Python notebook, and track energy-saving initiatives. The site also makes the operational constraints explicit, including on-premise deployment, Entra ID sign-in, and machine-bound licensing.

Monica’s Calendar of Flowers

August 17’s newborn domains include a calendar that spreads flowers for Monica across the months after JP’s death, 17 years of a master mariner’s logbooks, the seconds between a modem connection and the first web request, and an Indian bus cabin carrying 632 songs.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-17 Domain Arrivals issue.
