A company with a clear mission
Our mission is to build the most innovative product for maintenance teams to turn know-how and intuition into data-driven insights.
In many industries, maintenance teams still rely on traditional methods such as Excel spreadsheets or handwritten notes to record maintenance and repair work and related information. These practices may be tried and tested for their simplicity and speed, but they are not sustainable. They lead to unstructured teams, miscommunication on tasks, time-consuming information searches, frequent unplanned machine downtime and frustrated employees. The maintenance industry has been around since the 1980s, and the problems are old news. So why not use an existing solution? The reason is simple: the solutions currently available do not put the end user at the centre. They are characterised by complex user interfaces, lengthy training and high costs, leading to widespread rejection.
Our product challenges the status quo. It is innovative, easy to use and quickly operational. Customers like BEUMER Group, Adidas, FedEx, and other well-known companies are already benefiting from our great product.
Our Values & Principles
Product Passion
We deeply believe in the impact our product holds for our customers. Each of us is personally invested in and knowledgeable about the product’s details.
Innovation
We encourage taking the time to conceive innovative, creative solutions rather than mirroring our competitors.
Efficiency
We avoid pointless tasks; our time is invaluable. We concentrate on actions that add value and propel us towards our objectives.

We believe in proactivity. Don’t wait for permission. Figure it out or figure out who can.
Hands-on Mentality
We value doers. Roll up your sleeves, dive in, and get the job done.
Optimistic
We choose to see the glass half full. Approach every challenge with positivity and the belief that we can overcome it.
Resilience and Adaptability
We welcome change, navigate through challenges, remain flexible, and stay open to fresh ideas. Our ability to bounce back and evolve propels us towards continuous success.
Team player
It’s important to involve your team in your work. Foster collaboration, communication, support your colleagues, and build on each other’s strengths. Your work is part of the company’s success.
Growth-oriented
We strive for better. Pursue knowledge, challenge yourself, and elevate our collective potential.
Modern and innovative maintenance software
Our founders, two mathematicians with experience at the Fraunhofer Institute, realized that conventional software solutions for maintenance were often too complex and cost-intensive, which led to rejection by many maintenance teams. Inspired by this realization and the needs of the industry, they developed a user-friendly and intuitive solution that can be operated without much cognitive effort.
Our software is designed specifically for maintenance needs and fits seamlessly into the daily work routine. We know that time and resources are scarce, so we aim to make our solution as simple and efficient as possible.
