Bitfactory GmbH

What Bitfactory GmbH does

Bitfactory GmbH (legal entity: Bitfactory Solutions GmbH) is a privately held German custom-software development agency founded in 2015 by Andreas Gawelczyk and a co-founder named Matthias, headquartered in Stuttgart with a secondary office in Munich. The firm builds bespoke mobile, web, and AI-enabled applications for B2B enterprise clients using a stack centered on Flutter for cross-platform mobile and React, Angular, Node.js, Python, Java, and MongoDB for web and backend layers. Core service lines are App-Entwicklung, Individuelle Software, KI Lösung, and Produktstrategie — bundled into project-based engagements (time-and-materials and fixed-price) rather than packaged product sales.

Customers are concentrated in the DACH region across industrial manufacturing, construction, hospitality, smart home, and adjacent verticals, with named reference clients including Mercedes-Benz, Sony, Zeiss, Somfy, Recaro, Indeed, Lotto Baden-Württemberg, and Success Hotel Group. The PriSend postal-automation platform (Deutsche Post Mailoptimizer integration, OCR/OMR capture) is documented as serving 300+ downstream users, and the Somfy Bibliothek smart-home product app has run for approximately six years, processing 1.4TB of catalog data. Distribution is sales-led through direct enterprise outreach, consultation-led scoping, and content marketing (blog, tech lexicon, PR in Business Insider/Chip/Focus/Zett). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the company advertises a climate-neutral operating posture certified since January 2020 via atmosfair, and operates with a roughly 30% remote-work policy.
