What levigo solutions does

levigo solutions is a German privately held IT services and enterprise software group headquartered in Holzgerlingen near Stuttgart, operating under the legal entity levigo holding gmbh since its founding around 2001. The group is structured into three subsidiaries: levigo solutions gmbh, which develops and licenses the proprietary jadice document management software family (jadice viewer, jadice web toolkit, jadice server, jadice flow, jadice intent, output organizer, dossier-organizer); levigo systems gmbh, which delivers managed services and professional services around IT infrastructure, security, and cloud; and pulsatrix gmbh, which addresses charging infrastructure and photovoltaic solutions. The jadice platform is a Java-based, multi-format document viewing and processing stack spanning desktop, web, and cloud-native deployment layers, with pixel-accurate rendering across PDF, TIFF, AFP, and other formats and an emerging AI/LLM processing layer (RAG, multimodal models, generative AI) integrated via jadice flow.

The company generates revenue from three streams: recurring managed services contracts (including full-flat offerings), project-based professional services, and software licensing of the jadice product family to enterprise customers integrating the technology into their own document management systems. Customers are predominantly German Mittelstand (mid-market) firms, with additional exposure to the Sparkassen financial ecosystem (via an in-network data center) and German public administration (via active participation in Digitaler Staat Kongress, Smart Country Convention, and EDV-Gerichtstag). Go-to-market is consultative and direct, supported by an active events and content-marketing program, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, and a developer-relations presence through the Java User Group Stuttgart.

The business is founder/management-owned, with Managing Directors Jürgen Mästling (levigo solutions gmbh, 25-year tenure) and Oliver Bausch (levigo systems gmbh). There is no disclosed external funding, no public listing, and operations are concentrated in Germany with limited disclosed geographic expansion beyond the DACH region.

Core offering

levigo solutions develops and licenses the jadice product family — a Java-based document viewing, workflow processing, and information management platform spanning desktop (jadice viewer), web (jadice web toolkit), and cloud-native (jadice flow) deployment layers. The company also delivers managed and professional IT services including infrastructure, cloud, and security offerings for the German Mittelstand, operating a Virtual Data Center within the Sparkassen-IT network.

Product overview

levigo solutions provides a modular document management and viewing product family centered on the jadice platform. The core offering consists of jadice viewer (desktop), jadice web toolkit (web), and jadice server, which together provide multi-format document viewing across platforms. jadice flow extends these capabilities as a cloud-based workflow processing layer with modular workers for format conversion (Pandoc, ImageMagick, FFMPEG), AI processing (LLM/RAG, OCR), and scalable operations. The portfolio also includes jadice intent for intent-based workflow abstraction, output organizer for document export, and dossier-organizer for accessibility solutions. The company also provides managed services, professional services, and virtual data center offerings through levigo systems.
