About Us

About beetl

Vienna-based company helping multi-site manufacturers get trusted, auditable answers across fragmented ERP, production, quality, maintenance, database, and Excel systems without a migration project.

Our Mission

Industrial companies already have the data they need. The problem is that it sits across sites, systems, spreadsheets, and local definitions.

When leadership asks what changed, where performance slipped, or which site needs attention first, the answer still takes exports, spreadsheet work, and meetings about which number is right.

Beetl changes that pattern. We connect to the systems your team already runs, keep source systems untouched, and help turn one operating question into a trusted answer with visible sources, definitions, mappings, and logic.

Who We Are

Vienna-based, Europe-focused

We are building Beetl from Vienna for European industrial companies that need practical data infrastructure without another long IT project.

Data Engineering DNA

Our team has built software for data-intensive systems: large event streams, multi-terabyte pipelines, and integrations where reliability matters.

Industrial product mindset

We start with one operating question, make the answer traceable, and turn useful work into something the team can run again across sites and systems.

Our Team

We've built data platforms at hyperscale. Now we're building for manufacturing.
