What we do
Galena, Illinois · est. 2017
The companies that buy factory software are here. It is strange that the money is not.
A founder in Cleveland selling to plants in Ohio should not have to fly to Menlo Park to raise a seed round, then hire against San Francisco salaries to satisfy an investor who has never seen the customer.
We are in Galena, and we lead. Thirty-one of our thirty-four companies are within a day's drive of a partner, which is why we can be on site the week something breaks.
“Thirty-one of our companies are a day's drive away. That is the strategy.”
A customer down the road
A plant, a fleet, a distributor that will let you in the building.
A team that stays
Hired where you are, paid properly for there, not for San Francisco.
Revenue before the round
However small. In industrial software, a signed pilot is the proof.
