What we build

Complex technology.
Measurable results.

We are not a generalist software house. We are engineers with roots in research who build real operational systems.

TPL
Digital ticketing

DaAaB is the complete platform for selling and validating travel tickets in public transport. Operational, scalable, already deployed for 8+ years.

IoT
Embedded & IoT systems

Firmware development, hardware integration, cloud platforms for industrial telemetry. Full-stack: electronics, firmware, backend, dashboard.

R&I
Research & Innovation

Funded projects at regional, national and European level with universities and research centres. Innovation that transfers into products, not just papers.

Main product

DaAaB — the digital platform
for public transport.

Trip planning, ticket sales, digital payments, QR codes at stops and on board. A complete solution, deployable in a few weeks, already live in real operations with clients like ATVO.

How we work

From experimentation
to operational product.

Our method comes from scientific research. Rigorous by nature, results-driven by choice.

01
Constraint analysis

We start from real limits: technical, operational, regulatory. Not from what we'd like to do.

02
Field prototype

Rapid validation with real users. Fail fast, fix immediately.

03
Industrialisation

From demo to scalable product: reliability, maintainability, continuous deployment.

04
Ongoing operations

Our systems run every day. Responsibility doesn't end at go-live.

Let's work together

A complex technology project?
Let's talk.

From public transport to industrial IoT — if there's engineering to be done, we're equipped to do it.
