What Nemotec does

Nemotec is a Spanish software company founded in 1992 and headquartered in Leganés, Madrid, that develops NemoStudio — a cloud-enabled, multidisciplinary 3D dental planning suite. The platform integrates 2D/3D radiographic imaging (DICOM), intraoral scans (STL/PLY), facial scans (OBJ), and clinical photography into a unified AI-augmented workflow spanning orthodontics (NemoCeph, NemoCast, NemoFAB|Ortho), implantology (NemoScan), orthognathic surgery (NemoFAB, which embeds Dr. William Arnett's surgical protocol), and aesthetic smile design (NemoSmile). Three modules — NemoCast, NemoScan, and NemoFAB — carry U.S. FDA 510(k) clearances, and the suite is CE-marked and certified to ISO 13485:2016 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022.

The business model rests on annual software subscriptions for individual modules or the full suite, complemented by the Centro de Planificación (Planning Center) fee-based service providing outsourced digital case planning for guided surgery, orthodontic, aesthetic, and orthognathic cases. Distribution combines a direct sales motion (digital advisors, demo-driven conversion, SMART Cloud bundling) with channel partnerships — notably Henry Schein UK and Optident, which distribute the Smilers clear aligner ecosystem powered by NemoCast. The customer base is highly diversified across dental clinics, hospitals, dental laboratories, and universities, with 20,000+ users operating in Spain, the UK, France, the USA, Latin America, and Japan; marketing is driven by content (a dedicated blog, NemoUniversity training platform), demo CTAs, and trade-show presence at events such as Expodental. NemoStudio continues to ship iterative platform updates, with v25.0.0.0 released in May 2025.

Revenue model

1. Software Licenses and Subscriptions: Nemotec derives primary revenue from software licensing of the NemoStudio suite. Customers can purchase individual modules (NemoCeph, NemoCast, NemoScan, NemoFAB, NemoSmile) or the complete suite. The SMART Cloud plan bundles software access with cloud storage, support, and ongoing training. Software is delivered as both desktop and cloud (web) versions, with licenses registered online.
2. Planning Center Services: The Centro de Planificación (Planning Center) offers fee-based digital planning services for guided surgery, orthodontics, aesthetic dentistry, and orthognathic surgery. Clients submit patient records; Nemotec's expert team plans the case and returns digital files and/or physical products (surgical guides, occlusal splints, biomodels). Planning services are charged separately from software licenses.

Core offering

Nemotec develops and sells NemoStudio, an open, cloud-enabled, multidisciplinary 3D dental software suite that integrates orthodontics, implantology, orthognathic surgery, and aesthetic dentistry in a single platform. Its specialty modules (NemoCeph, NemoCast, NemoFAB|Ortho, NemoScan, NemoFAB, NemoSmile) are sold individually or as a full suite, supported by AI-powered automation (cephalometric tracing, CBCT tooth segmentation, smile visualization). It also operates the Centro de Planificación, a fee-based expert planning service for guided surgery, orthodontic, aesthetic, and orthognathic cases.

Product overview

NemoStudio is an open, multidisciplinary 3D dental software suite that integrates all dental specialties—orthodontics (NemoCeph, NemoCast, NemoFAB|Ortho), implantology (NemoScan), orthognathic surgery (NemoFAB), and smile design (NemoSmile)—on a single cloud-connected platform. Each module operates independently while being complementary, enabling clinics to address multidisciplinary cases within the same environment. The suite is complemented by the Centro de Planificación service for outsourced expert planning and NemoUniversity for professional training.
