ABOUT OCULAVIS

Gründer und Geschäftsführer der oculavis GmbH (von links nach rechts: Philipp Siebenkotten, Martin Plutz, Dr. Markus Große Böckmann).
oculavis GmbH, a venture born from the collaboration between Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft and RWTH Aachen University, was founded by three experts with extensive backgrounds in mechanical engineering. In May 2016, they embarked on a journey to revolutionize industrial processes within customer service and maintenance sectors. By 2022, the company expanded its global footprint by establishing offices in Chicago, USA, and Shanghai, China.
Our software platform is at the forefront of crafting efficient, innovative solutions for service, maintenance, and quality processes. Our technology empowers customers to forego thousands of business trips for technicians worldwide, thereby making a significant contribution to climate protection by enabling the virtual transfer of technical knowledge.
By making expert technical knowledge accessible remotely, we unlock vast possibilities for manufacturers of sophisticated products. This approach not only streamlines operations on the shop floor but also paves the way for digital business models and new revenue opportunities.
