Melvin

What Melvin does

Melvin (Melvin Soluções em Software LTDA) is a Brazilian industrial-maintenance software company headquartered in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, that delivers an end-to-end 'Maintenance 4.0' platform composed of three integrated layers: a cloud-based CMMS/EAM software (asset hierarchy, service orders, materials, dashboards for MTBF/MTTR/availability), a native mobile app for field technicians with offline mode, and proprietary triaxial IoT vibration/temperature sensors with a 4G/LTE gateway, IP69K protection, on-sensor edge computing and up to 10-year battery life. The platform is built on AWS infrastructure, integrates bi-directionally with SAP and TOTVS ERPs and Microsoft PowerBI, and embeds AI throughout — predictive analytics, anomaly detection, autonomous scheduling and a generative-AI assistant ('Agente Melvin') — all governed under ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2022 and ISO 27701:2019 certifications and LGPD/GDPR-aligned privacy practices.

The company monetises through three complementary revenue streams: recurring SaaS subscriptions to the CMMS/EAM platform (commercial terms defined in a 'Contrato de Licença de Uso de Plataforma Virtual'), one-off hardware sales of its IoT sensors and gateways, and education revenue through the affiliated Manutenção em Ação / Universidade Melvin training platform (2,500+ trained students). Distribution is direct, Brazil-centric and product-led: a self-serve 14-day free trial feeds inside-sales-assisted demos and enterprise field sales; quote-based procurement governs sensor sales; and a related training arm runs courses and post-graduate programs in maintenance management.

Melvin targets industrial customers in five prioritised verticals — Agroindústria, Alimentos e Bebidas, Cosméticos, Naval/Offshore and Siderurgia — with a customer base of 500+ companies and 100,000+ assets under management. Named enterprise customers include Grupo Hinode, Suinco, Apolo Tubulars, Umi San, Grande Oeste, Latam, Kuhn, Motherson and Valid. The company reports 400% year-over-year growth (per Valor Econômico and PEGN, Feb 2026) and states active client presence in Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and Angola. A closely related entity, Manutenção em Ação Ensino de Gestão de Manutenção Industrial LTDA., operates the educational/training arm. Total disclosed external funding is modest (~$44,519 from Inbix plus a Bossa Invest vehicle, both in 2022), and the operating company is classified as a 'empresa de pequeno porte' with 1–10 employees.

Core offering

Melvin sells an integrated Industrial Maintenance 4.0 platform to industrial companies: a cloud-based CMMS/EAM software that runs the full PCM cycle (detection, planning, scheduling, execution, control), complemented by a mobile field app and proprietary triaxial IoT vibration/temperature sensors. The platform adds AI-driven reliability, autonomous scheduling, a generative AI assistant (Agente Melvin), native Power BI connectivity, and bi-directional SAP/TOTVS ERP integration, sold primarily under recurring software subscriptions and quote-based hardware sales.

Product overview

Melvin offers a single integrated maintenance 4.0 platform composed of its core CMMS/EAM Software, the Melvin App for mobile field operations, and the Melvin Sensors IoT hardware for predictive monitoring. The Melvin Software acts as the central brain orchestrating the full PCM cycle (detection → planning → scheduling → execution → control), pulling live data from IoT sensors and integrating bidirectionally with ERPs such as SAP and TOTVS, plus native Power BI connectivity for BI/analytics. Additional modules extend the platform: Gestão Corporativa for multi-plant governance, Permissões por Ativo for asset-level access control, Análise de Falhas for root-cause analysis, Gestão de Projetos for shutdown/project management, and Gestão de Materiais for inventory and procurement. AI capabilities (predictive analytics, anomaly detection, autonomous scheduling, and the 'Agente Melvin' generative AI assistant) are embedded throughout the platform. Alongside the software, the Universidade Melvin (branded 'Manutenção em Ação') is Brazil's largest maintenance education platform, providing courses and certifications to over 2,500 students and reinforcing Melvin's full-stack approach to industrial maintenance.

Direct peers

• Fracttal: Latin American CMMS/EAM SaaS provider focused on asset reliability and maintenance management, with predictive modules. Comparable to Melvin on cloud CMMS model, Spanish/Portuguese localisation and mid-market industrial customer base across the Americas.
• UpKeep: Cloud CMMS and asset operations management platform serving mid-market manufacturers. Comparable on the work-order, asset-hierarchy and mobile-technician features, with a similar PLG and SMB-up motion.
• Limble CMMS: Cloud CMMS focused on work orders, asset management and preventive maintenance for industrial teams. Comparable to Melvin on the subscription CMMS model and mid-market manufacturing focus.
• Fiix Software: CMMS platform (now part of Rockwell Automation) targeting maintenance and reliability teams in manufacturing. Comparable to Melvin on cloud CMMS, asset hierarchy and KPI dashboards, with stronger enterprise distribution via Rockwell.
• Tractian: Brazilian-founded industrial-maintenance competitor combining proprietary wireless vibration/temperature sensors with an AI-driven CMMS platform. Closest comparable to Melvin in geography, product (software + IoT hardware) and target verticals (manufacturing, food & beverage, agro).
• MaintainX: Mobile-first CMMS/work-order platform with strong PLG motion serving mid-market manufacturers. Comparable to Melvin on the cloud CMMS product layer and mobile field-execution focus, though MaintainX is software-only without proprietary IoT sensors.
• Augury: Global IoT-based predictive maintenance platform using vibration and temperature sensors with AI diagnostics. Comparable on the sensor-plus-AI stack targeting industrial reliability, although Augury is more capitalised and globally distributed.

Emerging players

• Samotics (formerly Senseye): AI-driven predictive maintenance platform using sensor data and asset-health ML models for rotating equipment. Comparable to Melvin on the AI/predictive layer of the offering, though Samotics is sensor-agnostic rather than manufacturing its own hardware.

Broad incumbents

• SAP S/4HANA Plant Maintenance (PM): ERP-native maintenance module already integrated bi-directionally with Melvin. Comparable as the incumbent enterprise standard; competes with Melvin for large industrial accounts but typically requires extensive customisation and partner services.
• IBM Maximo Application Suite: Enterprise EAM suite covering asset management, work planning, predictive maintenance and IoT. Comparable to Melvin on enterprise EAM functionality, but at much larger scale, higher price point and longer implementation cycles.
