The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Novity novity is a small venture-backed company with a strategic investor rather than a profitable business, so continuity risk is real and the Tokyo Gas investment signals a likely eventual acquisition that would reset the roadmap.; P2 Energy Solutions now sold as part of IFS rather than as an independent vendor; p2energysolutions.com redirects into the IFS site
  • They diverge on capability: Novity covers TruPrognostics engine, P2 Energy Solutions covers Land management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Novity

  • Novity is a small venture-backed company with a strategic investor rather than a profitable business, so continuity risk is real and the Tokyo Gas investment signals a likely eventual acquisition that would reset the roadmap.
  • Physics-based models must be configured per equipment class, so each new asset type is an engineering engagement rather than a configuration screen, and rollout speed is limited by Novitys own capacity.
  • Prognostics depend on the quality and sampling rate of your historian data; plants recording ten-minute averages will not get useful remaining-useful-life estimates without new instrumentation.
  • Nothing about pricing is published and there is no self-service entry point, so evaluation always starts with a sales-led pilot on a handful of assets.
  • The deployment footprint is concentrated in oil and gas, LNG and water, so reference customers and pre-built asset models outside those industries are limited.

P2 Energy Solutions

  • Now sold as part of IFS rather than as an independent vendor; p2energysolutions.com redirects into the IFS site
  • Pricing is not published
  • Scoped to upstream oil and gas rather than energy generally

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Novity: What does Novity actually output?

A named failure mode and an estimated remaining useful life with a confidence band, not just an anomaly alert.

P2 Energy Solutions: How do I find out pricing for P2 Energy Solutions?

Pricing is not published on the product page. The vendor requires customers to either book a demo or contact a sales representative directly to discuss licensing and costs.

Source
Novity: Do we need failure history to train it?

No. The physics component is what lets it produce useful prognostics on equipment with little or no run-to-failure data.

P2 Energy Solutions: Is there a trial available for P2 Energy Solutions?

No trial information is provided on the product page. Access to the software appears to require direct contact with IFS sales.

Source
Novity: Do we need new sensors?

Often not. It reads from your existing historian, but low sampling rates or missing measurements can require additional instrumentation.

P2 Energy Solutions: What support options does P2 offer?

The page mentions IFS Success consulting services and business process outsourcing options, but specific support tiers and their costs are not detailed without contacting sales.

Source
Novity: Who backs the company?

It was spun out of Xerox PARC and took a strategic investment from Acario Innovation, the venture arm of Tokyo Gas, in 2026.
