Lemobs

What Lemobs does

Lemobs (legal name: Lemobs Soluções em Tecnologia da Informação Ltda) is a Brazilian GovTech SaaS company founded in 2015 and headquartered at the Parque Tecnológico da UFRJ in Rio de Janeiro. The firm was incubated at COPPE/UFRJ and is led by founder-CEO Sérgio Rodrigues, who holds a PhD from COPPE's Systems and Computer Engineering Program. Lemobs develops cloud-native, multi-platform software for municipal and state public administration, with a portfolio of five products: Sigelu (urban cleaning management, powering Rio de Janeiro's Lixo Zero program), AEI – Alimentação Escolar Inteligente (AI-driven school meal management aligned to PNAE regulations), Zelus (public safety and dispatch), Minha Saúde (citizen and employee health monitoring), and Combate Aedes (dengue, Zika, and chikungunya vector control). All products share a common web-and-mobile architecture with georeferencing, real-time dashboards, and API-based integrations to systems such as Google Maps and Waze, and run on AWS infrastructure where AEI is certified as AWS Qualified Software.

The company's product mix combines generative AI, predictive analytics, recommendation, anomaly detection, and optimization capabilities concentrated in AEI, which automates menu creation, nutritional adequacy, inventory, family-agriculture sourcing, and child-development monitoring using anthropometric data. Reported customer outcomes include a 63% reduction in solid waste on Rio streets since 2013, 80% waste reduction in schools using AEI, 97.9% time savings on school meal planning, and R$1M-class project agreements (e.g., IPPMG/UFRJ pediatric health app). Lemobs monetizes primarily through tiered SaaS subscriptions — AEI offers a free public-administration tier (up to 3 schools) plus paid Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced plans — supplemented by professional services (integration, training, consulting) and hardware supply (smartphones, tablets, GPS trackers, portable printers). Distribution is sales-led for government procurement, augmented by a freemium PLG motion, multi-channel marketing (events such as Connected Smart Cities and WebSummit, webinars, content, paid search, and earned media including Jornal Nacional), and a partner ecosystem that includes AWS, Instituto BRF, COMLURB, Petrobras, and academic partners at UFRJ. Reach extends to 687 cities and approximately 79,504 users across Brazil, with a headcount of about 54 employees and no disclosed equity funding rounds beyond non-dilutive public innovation grants (FINEP, FAPERJ, SEBRAE-RS, BrazilLAB).
