What Baka Glass Software does

Baka Glass Software is a Dutch vertical SaaS company founded circa 2019 and headquartered in Lijnden, Netherlands, that builds cloud-based ERP software purpose-built for the flat glass industry. The platform integrates more than 20 modules covering order processing, production planning, cutting optimization, logistics, CRM, financials, customer/supplier portals, and field service management, and is accessible via any browser. It is sold as a monthly subscription with no long-term commitment, marketed under the tagline 'guaranteed functional for your glass company,' and currently serves 200+ glass companies with 3,100+ daily active users across more than 15 countries, primarily in wholesale, repair, and production segments.

The platform's technical differentiator is deep glass-industry specialization — every workflow (complex measurements, cutting optimization, production step tracking, field service coordination, insurance claim handling) is designed from practical industry experience rather than adapted from generic ERP. Its proprietary AI module, branded 'Aiden,' performs automated order intake from email and attachments, AI-driven order confirmation validation, invoice scanning, and purchase price anomaly detection. Two standalone products — Baka Designer (a 3D glass configurator producing CNC-ready DXF files) and Baka Production (a cloud production module used in 15+ countries) — function as entry points into the full ERP suite. The platform integrates with Exact for accounting, multiple insurance carriers for glass-repair claim routing, and telematics/logistics partners (ABAX, GPS-Buddy, Ctrack, DHL) for fleet and field operations.

Baka Glass distributes primarily through a multilingual website (Dutch, English, German, Turkish) with a 30-minute free demo as the conversion mechanism, supplemented by trade show presence at the four major global glass industry events (Glasstec, Vitrum, GlassBuild America, Eurasia Glass Fair). Its go-to-market combines product-led growth with field sales at industry events and an emerging partner referral channel via insurance and accounting integrations. The company employs 11-50 people, is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, and was co-founded by Richard Weug and Sam Cutler. In 2026 it received an Innovation Award nomination at Exact's Ecosystem Awards for its accounting integration.

Partnerships

Two partnerships are on record, tiered core.

• ExactcoreTechnology or Integration · 13 April 2026A powerful integration between Baka Glass and Exact accounting software has developed over the years. Hundreds of automatic requests per day exchange orders, invoices, and financial data in real-time between systems. For customers, this means less manual work, fewer errors, and processes that simply run smoothly without hassle. This integration was the basis for Exact nominating Baka Glass for the Innovation Award.
• Samenwerking Glasverzekering (Glass Insurance Cooperation)coreTechnology or IntegrationRecent integration partnership enabling glass repair companies to receive immediate claim reports from Glass Insurance Cooperation. Previously processed manually, notifications are now automatically forwarded from Glass Insurance Cooperation to the repair company. This ensures quick response, reduces administrative burden, and allows companies to focus on core repair tasks. Operational efficiency is significantly increased with automated notifications.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Microvellum: Microvellum provides cabinet, door, and glass fabrication software with CAD/CAM and ERP integration. It overlaps with Baka's fabrication and design tooling orientation, particularly in custom glass product manufacturing.
• Fenster3000: Fenster3000 is a German software provider for window, door, and glass fabrication, focused on small and mid-sized fabricators. It is comparable as a regional, industry-specific ERP/CRM vendor for glass-adjacent trades.

Broad incumbents

• Exact: Exact is a Dutch ERP and business software vendor that nominated Baka Glass for its Innovation Award in 2026. While primarily a horizontal mid-market ERP, Exact's integration with Baka Glass (and potential to expand glass-specific functionality) makes it a broad incumbent operating in adjacent ERP space.
• Glaston: Glaston is a large, established glass processing machinery vendor (insulating glass, tempering, automotive glass) that also offers software and services around production. It is a broader incumbent in the same glass manufacturing value chain, with overlapping capabilities in production optimization.
• Bystronic: Bystronic is a global provider of machinery and software solutions for sheet metal and glass processing, including production optimization and order management. It is a broader incumbent with overlapping production software capabilities in glass manufacturing.

Direct peers

• Orgadata: Orgadata is the company behind LogiKal and serves glass, window, and facade fabricators with software covering order entry, production, and CNC machining. It competes directly with Baka Glass in the glass fabrication software niche, particularly in Europe.
• A+W Software: A+W Software is a long-standing ERP and production software provider dedicated to the flat glass industry, offering order processing, production optimization, and logistics modules. It is the most direct head-to-head competitor to Baka Glass, serving the same glass wholesale, manufacturing, and processing segments globally.
• FeneTech: FeneTech provides ERP and quoting software specifically for glass and window/door fabricators, including order entry, production scheduling, and optimization. It is a direct vertical SaaS competitor with comparable domain specialization in glass fabrication.
• LogiKal: LogiKal is CAD/ERP software for aluminum, PVC, and glass fabrication, used by window, door, and facade manufacturers. It is comparable to Baka Designer and Baka Production in addressing glass-driven fabrication workflows with deep industry-specific configuration.

Regional players

• Windowmaker Software: Windowmaker Software provides quoting, CAD, and ERP tools for window, door, and glass fabrication, primarily in the UK and Commonwealth markets. It is comparable as an industry-specific vertical SaaS but with a stronger regional concentration outside Baka Glass's core European markets.
