Objectis

What Objectis does

Objectis is a privately held Swiss software engineering firm headquartered in Yverdon-les-Bains, founded around 2012 by a team of industrial computing specialists. The company designs, develops, and commercializes software solutions for industrial automation actors, with a core focus on human-machine interface (HMI) creation, production planning, and the digitalization of heterogeneous machine fleets in the context of Industry 4.0.

The company operates a hybrid model combining proprietary software products with bespoke development services. Its product portfolio centers on three core offerings: InstantUX-Machine, an HMI compatible with all major CNCs and PLCs that allows machine manufacturers to deploy customized interfaces in minutes; InstantUX-Atelier, which standardizes HMIs across heterogeneous machine parks within a production workshop without lengthy development cycles; and SEGANTO, a multi-application platform for dynamic resource planning, priority management, and production progress tracking. These products are underpinned by a proprietary "HMI Auto-generation" mechanism developed and refined over nearly 15 years of industrial software engineering experience.

Objectis generates revenue through three streams: subscription-based licensing of its software products, professional services for custom application development tailored to specific industrial client needs, and a professional training and coaching program covering C#, WPF, Blazor, UML, and its Concept.Convergence methodology. The go-to-market approach is sales-led and direct, targeting enterprise customers across four primary segments: machine manufacturers (standard and special machines), instrument manufacturers (measurement, control, embedded, and IoT devices), system integrators, and production factories and workshops. With a team of 25+ professionals serving more than 250 enterprise customers including Bobst, +GF+, Mikron, Speno International SA, and Sylvac, the company is a boutique specialist in industrial software rather than a high-growth SaaS scale-up.

Core offering

Objectis develops and commercializes proprietary industrial software products — InstantUX-Machine, InstantUX-Atelier, and SEGANTO — for Human-Machine Interface (HMI) deployment and production planning in industrial environments. In parallel, the firm provides custom turnkey software development services for machines, instruments, and production workshops, along with professional training programs in industrial software engineering.

Product overview

Objectis offers a unified platform-plus-products architecture for Industry 4.0 software. Their core product line includes three main software solutions: InstantUX – Machine (an HMI compatible with all CNCs and PLCs for direct machine installation), InstantUX – Atelier (an application to standardize HMIs across all machines in a production center), and Seganto (a multi-application tool for production planning, scheduling, and execution). These products can be complemented with turnkey custom application development services (Applications et Services clés en main) for bespoke industrial software needs. The company also provides specialized tools for machine, measurement, and workstation control developed over 15 years of software expertise.

Direct peers

• iBASEt: Provider of MES/scheduling software for complex discrete manufacturers, including production planning and execution. Comparable because SEGANTO targets a similar planning-and-execution scope for industrial customers.
• Inductive Automation: Developer of Ignition, an HMI/SCADA/MES software platform widely used to build industrial visualization and control applications. Highly comparable to Objectis's InstantUX position because both target rapid HMI development across heterogeneous industrial assets.
• Critical Manufacturing: Provider of MES/MOM software for Industry 4.0 manufacturers, including production planning, scheduling and execution modules analogous to SEGANTO. Comparable because both target discrete manufacturers needing modern MES with HMI connectivity.

Emerging players

• Canary Labs: Industrial data historian and visualization vendor whose tools sit alongside SCADA/HMI stacks. Comparable as a niche player in industrial visualization that overlaps with InstantUX's shop-floor use cases.
• Tulip Interfaces: Cloud-native frontline operations platform for manufacturers, combining connected machine apps with operator interfaces. Comparable as an emerging player addressing operator-HMI and production-data workflows, though more cloud-centric than Objectis.
• Aegis Software (Critical Manufacturing competitor): MES-focused vendor offering production tracking, quality and traceability for manufacturers. Comparable to SEGANTO for discrete manufacturers modernizing their shop-floor execution.

Broad incumbents

• AVEVA (Wonderware): Established industrial software platform whose HMI/SCADA offerings (Wonderware, AVEVA HMI/SCADA) compete directly with InstantUX in machine-OEM and factory-floor visualization. Comparable as a broader portfolio incumbent with overlapping core capability.
• Rockwell Automation (FactoryTalk): Industrial automation major whose FactoryTalk suite spans HMI, MES and production visualization. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing in the same machine-manufacturer and factory-floor buyer environment.
• Siemens Digital Industries (WinCC / TIA Portal): Industrial automation giant offering WinCC HMI/SCADA and TIA Portal tightly integrated with its PLC/CNC portfolio. Comparable as the dominant bundled incumbent whose installed base shapes the HMI procurement ecosystem Objectis must sell into.
• B&R Industrial Automation (ABB): ABB-owned machine-automation specialist providing PLCs, HMI and integrated machine software. Comparable as an incumbent with native machine-OEM HMI offerings that directly contest InstantUX at machine builders.
