Who works here
31 people, half mechatronics, the rest software and operations. Three of us used to be forestry workers. We're muddier than a typical tech company.
How we actually work
Field test every other week — everyone who wants to joins. No long documents; prototypes and video. We're bad at writing things down, honestly a problem.
A normal week
Monday: status, 30 min. Tuesday–Thursday: building and testing in the workshop. Every other Friday: field. Office and workshop at Forus, most people there four days.
Who thrives here — and who doesn't
You'll thrive if you like dirt under your nails and code in the same day. You'll struggle if you need a mature process.

We raised NOK 65M in 2025. Not profitable. The plan is 2028.
