About Rotomate
Rotomate is creating a new category in industrial AI software: the decision layer on top of condition monitoring. The company's AI colleague turns machine data into clear, prioritized maintenance decisions on the factory floor, helping industrial plants reduce production disruptions and improve production at scale. Where traditional systems stop at the alert, Rotomate delivers expert-level maintenance decisions continuously across entire plants. For European industry, closing that gap translates directly into less lost production, stronger output, and improved global competitiveness.
Rotomate has raised €2.1M in pre-seed funding, led by Kvanted, with participation from Robin Capital, Angel Invest, Business Finland, and some notable angel investors.
