AI copilot · for roasters

The AI copilot for
coffee roasting.

Roastline connects to your roaster, reads the curve live, and tells you what to do next — then predicts how the cup will taste before you grind a single bean. Logging is solved. Decisions aren't.

What it does

Three ways it roasts alongside you.

Real-time guidance

See where you're going.
Act early.

The curve only ever told you where you'd been. Roastline projects where BT and RoR are heading and tracks your target development — so you nudge the gas before the stall, not after.

  • Forward projection on every live curve
  • Phase-by-phase AI guidance in plain language

ON TARGET
Dev 25.3% — tracking your 25% target.
Know the cup before you taste

Dial in new lots
in fewer roasts.

Before you've pulled a single sample, Roastline reads the profile and predicts how it'll cup — acidity, body, sweetness, and the score — and flags baked, underdeveloped or scorched while you can still change it.

  • Predicted SCA & sensory profile, pre-drop
  • Defect flags before the green hits the dump bucket

Autopilot

Your expertise,
every batch.

Lock in a profile and let Roastline run it hands-free — same drop, same development, batch after batch. A copilot, not a replacement: take the wheel back any moment, or use it to train your juniors.

  • Hands-free roasting on locked-in profiles
  • You stay in control — override anytime

How it works

From green to great in four steps.

01

Connect your machine

Plug into your roaster in minutes — Aillio Bullet, Kaleido, Ikawa & more.

02

Roast live with guidance

See where the curve is heading and act early, every batch.

03

Predict the cup

Know the score and catch defects before you taste.

04

Autopilot your best profiles

Lock in a recipe and let it run, hands-free.

Built for your setup

No rip-and-replace.
It adds on top.

Keep the machine you have and the logging you trust. Roastline layers the intelligence on — it doesn't take your setup away.

Hardware-agnostic

Works with the roasters you use.

Aillio Bullet, Kaleido, Ikawa and more — an extensible device layer means a new machine is a driver, not a rewrite. Never locked to one drum.

Local or cloud AI

Runs right on the roastery floor.

The AI can run on-prem — works offline through a power flicker, and your roast data never leaves the building. Cloud's there if you want it.

Plays nice

Complements Artisan-style logging.

Not here to replace your records. Roastline is the AI reading them in real time, on top of what you already do.

Learns from your cups

It learns your taste —
not someone else's.

Roastline tunes its predictions to the cups you actually score. Quality-weighted, so your best roasts teach it the most — and every batch you cup makes the next one sharper.

01 · Roast

Roast live with guidance

02 · Score

03 · Adapt

The model tunes to you

Predictions sharpen toward your palate — weighted by your best cups.

The post-roast AI report

Every roast makes you better.

After every batch, a plain-language walk-through of what happened — and exactly what to adjust next time. Not "your RoR was 7.2." Real moves: when to open the gas, by how much, to land the cup you're after.

  • Specific adjustments, not generic notes
  • A written record saved to every roast

“I’ve been roasting for eleven years and I still caught myself second-guessing drop timing on naturals. Roastline just tells me. RoR’s climbing, Maillard’s almost done, drop in 40 seconds — and the cup backs it up every time.”

Marcus Delgado
Head Roaster · Altitude Coffee Roasters

“We roast with two different people across the week. Before Roastline, the Wednesday batch always tasted a little different from Monday’s. Now the curves match, the scores match, and I stopped wasting a kilo of green every week chasing consistency.”
