What Web Manuals International AB does

Web Manuals International AB is a Swedish cloud-based SaaS provider headquartered in Malmö that sells an all-in-one aviation document management platform to commercial airlines, charter operators, business and private jet operators, MROs, flight schools, and UAV/drone operators. Founded in 2013 and serving 750+ aviation organizations with 50,000+ users globally, the company digitizes and automates the lifecycle of operational, safety, and technical manuals, replacing paper-based and PDF-based workflows with a cloud platform that supports web, PDF, and native XML formats in a unified system.

The platform is modular, comprising Write and Edit (collaborative authoring with approval workflows and claimed up to 80% editing time savings), Reader and Reviewer (role-based distribution with full traceability), an EFB App for pilots (offline-capable mobile access on iOS and Android), Amelia AI and Amelia Co-Author (AI-powered search and generative authoring assistants launched in 2024 and May 2025 respectively), an XML Editor (launched June 2026) for OEM-supplied technical manuals, and a Compliance Monitoring module with live-linked regulatory libraries and automated alerts sourced from FAA, EASA, CASA, and IOSA connections. A Web Manuals Store marketplace offers add-on compliance services, licenses, and templates.

Revenue is generated through annual SaaS subscriptions with custom enterprise pricing tied to operation size and user count, sold predominantly via a direct field-sales motion supplemented by a partner ecosystem (compliance advisors, software integrators, and template providers). The company operates through wholly-owned subsidiaries in Sweden, the US, Singapore, Australia, Spain, Brazil, and the UAE, and maintains commitments to GDPR, Singapore PDPA, the Australian Privacy Act, and the EU AI Act. No external funding rounds are disclosed, indicating a bootstrapped or self-funded growth profile.

Direct peers

• Ideagen: Ideagen provides governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) and document management software with a dedicated aviation vertical serving operators, MROs, and airports.

Closely comparable to Web Manuals in MRO document management, revision tracking, and Part-145 compliance workflows for aviation operators.
