We have a lot of exciting tasks ahead of us in line with company expansion and operations, and want to help our end users have an even better experience using our products!

We create maps in a semi-automated process with the raw floor plans as input, and output a leaner and visually pleasing map where we have identified the rooms, doors, and various points of interest. These maps are the base product that allows us to provide useful features like path finding, booking of meeting rooms / desks / hotel rooms, resource management, etc.

In the years to come, we anticipate to scale to 10 times as many customers.

Last, but not least, we also have a broad range of complex features to deliver, so if you are up for a challenge, continue reading.
