Every factory runs on electricity. Data should be the second.

Our mission is to build experiences that cut manufacturers' time to value. So manufacturers can stop rebuilding the same data plumbing for every use case and start building what actually matters.

Making factory data as accessible as electricity.

Every factory runs on electricity. But there is a second foundational resource that most manufacturers still cannot access reliably: their own data. It is trapped inside dozens of disconnected systems, locked behind proprietary interfaces, and rebuilt from scratch at every single site.

We are changing that. UMH connects every machine, sensor, and system in a factory into one unified data foundation. One layer that works the same way at plant 1 and plant 47. So your teams can stop spending months on integration projects and start building what actually matters: better products, less waste, smarter operations.

10-20%

Average productivity gain reported by customers after connecting their factory data

5-12%

Typical energy reduction when manufacturers can actually see and act on consumption data

AI-ready

Every data point structured, contextualized, and ready for the next generation of manufacturing intelligence

Trusted by global enterprises

Own the outcome. Learn fast. Focus on business value.

These are not corporate values printed on a wall. They are the three commitments every person at UMH makes. They shape how we hire, how we build, and how we work with customers every day. They are simple to say and hard to live by. We follow them anyway.

Extreme Ownership

End-to-end responsibility. No handoffs, no excuses, no 'not my job.' You see a problem, you fix it, even if it's outside your scope. You don't wait to be managed. The extra mile isn't extra, it's the standard.

You own the outcome, not the task.

Humble & Curious

You seek feedback before you're asked. You change your mind when evidence says you should. Mistakes aren't failures, hiding them is. You're more interested in being right than being seen as right.

Keep your ego low. Every idea can be wrong or improved.

Business Value or Nothing

Every hour needs to connect to business value. Sometimes directly, sometimes through developer experience or team happiness. But you need to know how. No nice-to-haves. Choosing what not to do is equally important as what to do.

Leave behind what doesn't matter. Burn for what does.

our origin

We built what we wished existed.

Before UMH was a company, we were system integrators. Alex and Jeremy spent over seven years building data infrastructure inside factories - from automotive plants in Tokyo to manufacturers in Shanghai, legacy systems in the US, and global digitization projects alongside one of the world's largest management consultancies.

Everywhere we went, the problem was the same: proprietary software, opaque pricing, and knowledge locked inside one vendor's ecosystem. Every factory reinvented the same plumbing. Getting clean high-context data was 90% of the job. So we built the infrastructure we kept wishing existed. Open source, opinionated, and designed for people who actually work in factories.

our commitment

Open source is not a feature. It is a commitment.

"Everyone knows the industrial landscape must digitize quickly to stay competitive. Yet industrial software is still handled like it was 30 years ago — hidden behind proprietary models, opaque pricing, and siloed knowledge. We believe the best way to create the best product is to get it into as many hands as possible, as quickly as possible. That's why we're fully committed to Open-Source and the community around it.

Our goal is to provide an ideal environment for daring teams in small, medium, and large enterprises to just get started — no strings attached. That's why our software core is and will remain under an open-source license, our management console will always include a community tier, and we'll make our knowledge openly available. No gatekeeping whatsoever.

Let's change how software is handled in the industry — one deployment at a time."
