The business trades as Appsfactory, and its work is organised around four service lines: digital consulting, design, software development and managed services, with AI solutions added on top of them.

How the work is organised

Each engagement starts with discovery. The team runs design thinking workshops with the client to find the features that matter. Once a product is built, the managed services line keeps it running, so a client can hand over a finished app and rely on the firm for maintenance. The company says its specialists have worked in more than a hundred and twenty countries through the products they have delivered.

Products handed over to clients

Among the products the company describes is a revised tagesschau news app for phone, tablet and Apple Watch, which introduced vertical video and a video-based newsreel. It also describes a connected car app that it built for a major manufacturer's digital strategy, and an e-commerce app for a drinks retailer that reached top positions in its store category soon after release. A production app for Trützschler shows output in real time.

Healthcare, finance and public-sector software

The firm describes a neobroker for a bank, which packages trading across five asset classes in an app designed for people new to markets. On the healthcare side it describes a platform that supports the full patient journey for a prosthetics manufacturer. Its AI work includes automated audio and video processing for German law enforcement.

Recognition and reach

The company says it was named Saxony's Entrepreneur of the Year and that its connected car work won the Automotive API award at the API Awards 2020. It also describes a team of more than 450 experts and a catalogue of over 750 products. Its pages point to work for broadcasters, carmakers, banks, retailers, factories and public bodies.
