The story

Founded 2019 as a personalized digital learning tool from the University of Münster. Evolved into a combined LMS + LXP + skills-management platform for German enterprises (BASF, Shopware, LVM, Pfeifer & Langen). Now positions itself as a skill-based learning OS with AI-driven authoring and skill taxonomies — a horizontal HR-tech SaaS, not a fintech.
