What Meritech does

Meritech (株式会社メリテック / Meritech Co., Ltd.) is a Tokyo-headquartered Japanese technology company founded in 2003 that specializes in mobile network testing and measurement (T&M), network optimization, LPWA IoT solutions, and adjacent IT services. With 101–250 employees, the company sells into telecom operators, network equipment vendors, and large enterprises globally — its public client logos include NTT Docomo, SoftBank, KDDI, Rakuten, NTT Communications, China Mobile, US Cellular, Vodacom, AIS, dtac, True, Nokia, Ericsson, ZTE, Sony, Fujitsu, NEC, Panasonic, Renesas, Sharp, Infosys, and several system integrators. The firm claims 20+ years of industry experience and operational presence across 50+ countries.

The company's product portfolio is organized into three pillars. (1) Wireless Products & Services: the proprietary Sigma family (Sigma-LA, Sigma-PA, Sigma-ML, Sigma-NEO) and Centra line (Centra-SD, Centra-Experitest) support 5G/LTE network testing, drive/walk testing, planning, and optimization engagements. (2) IoT Products & Services: the monoZ suite combines a System-on-Module (monoZ:Jet) with the monoZ:Link no-code cloud platform and integrates 1NCE global cellular connectivity via pre-certified TELEC radio modules, while the Xeno+ suite offers programmable IoT gateways supporting WiFi, BLE, LoRa, and LTE for industrial edge-to-cloud deployments; Mesimo and Centra IoT round out the lineup. (3) IT Services: Digital Synergy Solutions, Data & AI, DevOps, Cloud, ServiceNow, the proprietary zoECON™ Cloud Cost Optimizer, Independent Validation Services, Managed IT Services, IT Consulting, and IT Outsourcing. End-to-end IoT device engineering spans custom PCB design, embedded C/FreeRTOS firmware, FPGA RTL, and backend cloud stacks (Springboot, Java, Angular, React, PostgreSQL), with embedded ML use cases including audio TinyML sound classification and CNN/RNN/LSTM/GRU-based predictive maintenance and Remaining Useful Life forecasting.

Meritech operates an enterprise field-sales GTM, engaging telecom operators, manufacturers, healthcare providers, and large enterprises directly and through a global partner network that includes major telcos and equipment vendors. Revenue is generated through a mix of proprietary hardware sales (Sigma/Centra wireless tools, monoZ/Xeno+ IoT hardware), custom IoT device engineering projects, and recurring/professional services across wireless, IoT, and IT domains. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based for B2B engagements. Delivery is anchored by a Tokyo HQ with eight global offices, including three India-based engineering/R&D centers (Mohali, Bhubaneswar, Bengaluru) that provide cost-effective embedded and cloud engineering capacity, and additional offices in Dallas, Stuttgart, London, Bangkok, and Singapore. The company holds ISO 27001 and PrivacyMark certifications, is privately held, and is led by Representative Director Harish Sachdeva; in 2021 it acquired Eoxys, and in October 2025 it participated as an investor in n8n's $180M Series C.
