Mission
Connect assets and optimize workflows with real-time data

SmartMakers was founded in 2016 and is now one of the leading providers of complete IoT solutions. Our technologies offer companies of all sizes an immediately measurable improvement in their business processes.
Our Real Time Operations Platform thingsHub integrates IoT devices, low-power radio technology, and machine learning to make the use of IoT simple and value-adding.
Several hundred companies from various industries trust IoT from SmartMakers.
Numbers that speak for themselves.
We move the industry – not with big promises, but with solutions that work from day one.

Sebastian Stute
CEO
Sebastian's mission is to empower companies in the industry to manage their processes based on reliable data, rather than on half-truths maintained in some Excel list.

COO, Co-Founder & Expert for Track & Trace in Logistics
