Valudio

What Valudio does

Valudio is a privately held custom software development studio founded in 2016, registered in Zürich, Switzerland (Valudio GmbH) with operational offices in Barcelona, Spain. The company serves enterprise and mid-market clients, with primary focus on medical laboratories, healthcare, and manufacturing. It operates a hybrid business model combining professional services (discovery, digital product development, cloud/DevOps, UI/UX) with productized offerings: MeDaHub, a middleware platform connecting LIS, ERP, and CRM systems in medical laboratories via HL7/FHIR without requiring migration; and Lablyze, an AI-powered cloud SaaS for automated PCR result interpretation in molecular diagnostics.

The company's technology stack centers on the Microsoft and React ecosystems, including C#/.NET, ASP.NET Core, TypeScript, React, Next.js, React Native, Microsoft Azure, Azure DevOps, Microsoft SQL Server, Docker, and SignalR. AI capabilities are integrated where practical using Azure OpenAI/ChatGPT, LangChain, and Azure Cognitive Search for semantic retrieval, along with machine learning for structured diagnostic data. Named clients include Siemens, Synlab, AMEDES, Sonic Suisse, Labor Team AG, Bystronic, Capaul, Disposan, Lingoda, and Nemi, with several engagements spanning 4+ years in production.

Valudio targets DACH and Southern European markets through direct, consultative sales with no public pricing and quote-based engagements. The company employs 1-10 people, is bootstrapped (no disclosed funding rounds), and is led by co-founder and Managing Director Mischa Herbrand, alongside Product Delivery Lead Lèda Felix and Technical Lead Dennis Quitaquís. The company culture emphasizes fewer, deeper engagements with a small team of specialists rather than high-volume project delivery.

1. Custom Software Development Services: Valudio generates revenue through custom software development projects — discovery and planning, digital product development, cloud computing and DevOps, UI/UX design, project management, and technical support. Projects are scoped and delivered as professional services engagements, typically with fixed-scope initial phases transitioning to continuous collaboration. No public pricing is disclosed; engagement is quote-based.
2. SaaS / Software Products: Valudio has developed and deployed SaaS products such as Lablyze (AI-powered molecular diagnostics platform) and MeDaHub (laboratory middleware). These products operate on a SaaS/subscription model processing thousands of samples daily across multiple laboratory locations. Revenue is derived from platform licensing and usage fees to healthcare and laboratory clients.
