ENDEKO

What ENDEKO does

ENDEKO GmbH is a Stuttgart-based multidisciplinary product development consultancy that delivers integrated innovation services under an Engineering–Design–Cooperation ("En-De-Ko") framework. The firm combines mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, automation, industrial design, software, prototyping, materials, and production expertise in a single team, and uses an iterative prototyping methodology backed by an in-house prototyping lab and a network of over 30 manufacturing partners.

The company's core output is client-specific product development projects rather than a standardized product line. Documented engagements include the T&O Labsorter (medical laboratory sample sorting, iF Gold Award 2024), TRUMPF S3 Automation (semiconductor industry hardware architecture) and TRUMPF PartStation / Absortierwagen (mobile laser-cut sheet sorting, Red Dot Award 2024), ATOLL RIMO modular outdoor kitchens (German Design Award 2024), and the R&V XaaS Showcase IIoT demonstrator developed with Bridgemaker for R&V Insurance. The collective team has filed more than 20 patents.

ENDEKO operates as a B2B professional services firm with a sales-led, enterprise-focused go-to-market: direct engagement through its website and case-study portfolio targets industrial buyers in manufacturing, medical technology, semiconductor, and consumer goods. Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-based engagements with multi-year contract cadence; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm is privately held, founder-led by Magnus Deiss, with no disclosed external investors or parent company.
