What ioncentric does

ioncentric GmbH is a German DeepTech/GreenTech startup founded in 2025 and headquartered in Heilbronn, Germany, that develops precision battery diagnostics and lifecycle management solutions for enterprise customers in the energy, industrial, and mobility sectors. The company's product portfolio is built around a patented (pending) measuring method that combines Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) with high-precision Coulomb Counting and adaptive self-calibration algorithms, delivering laboratory-grade accuracy of ±0.5% (versus the ±20-30% typical of standard Battery Management Systems). The platform consists of three integrated products: the eiscube hardware device for on-site battery measurement with on-device machine learning for edge anomaly detection, the ioneis cloud platform for AI-powered predictive analytics, fleet benchmarking, and TCO optimization, and a Digital Product Passport (DPP) module for EU Battery Regulation (EU 2023/1542) compliance ahead of the February 2027 mandate.

The company operates a B2B enterprise sales model with custom, non-publicly disclosed pricing gated behind a "Request demo" sales motion, targeting three primary verticals: Energy (battery systems, inverters, storage), Industry 4.0 (production lines, manufacturing systems), and Mobility (electric vehicles, charging infrastructure). Revenue mechanics combine hardware sales of the eiscube with recurring subscription revenue from the ioneis cloud and DPP services, supported by multi-protocol integration (CAN, Modbus, RS485, Ethernet) and a RESTful API with EU cloud, private cloud, and on-premises deployment options. The company holds SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certifications for its cloud platform, has received BSZF R&D certification, and is eligible for the German INVEST venture capital programme.

ioncentric is a spin-off of HAWK University of Applied Sciences and Arts and has no disclosed external funding rounds, no named customers, and 1-10 employees. In 2026, the company has pursued a strategy of ecosystem embedding through membership in the Industrial Digital Twin Association (IDTA) and the Volta Foundation, recognition via the Embedded Award 2026 (Hardware category), selection into the Future GreenTech Incubator Batch #2 (with up to €300,000 potential funding), and a German federal business development delegation trip to Los Angeles targeting the US market. The company is operated by Managing Director Andrej Russkov, with no other leadership disclosed in the available sources.

Core offering

ioncentric develops and sells an integrated battery intelligence solution consisting of the eiscube precision measurement hardware, the ioneis cloud analytics platform, and a Digital Product Passport (DPP) service. The eiscube uses Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) to deliver laboratory-grade battery measurements (±0.5% accuracy) on-site, the ioneis cloud processes the data with AI-driven predictive analytics, and the DPP layer provides EU Battery Regulation-compliant lifecycle documentation for batteries deployed in energy, industrial, and mobility systems.

Product overview

ioncentric provides a modular IoT ecosystem for smart infrastructure through secure IoT interfaces, connecting decentralized energy, industrial, and mobility systems. The portfolio consists of three core products: (1) eiscube - precision battery measurement hardware delivering laboratory-grade accuracy (±0.5%) using EIS technology with on-device ML; (2) ioneis cloud - cloud platform processing real-time battery data with AI-powered analytics for predictive maintenance and compliance; and (3) Digital Product Passport - comprehensive documentation system for EU Battery Regulation compliance, lifecycle tracking, and ESG reporting. These products work together in a three-step process: modular IoT devices collect and encrypt data at the source, advanced AI models in the cloud process and analyze data for predictive insights, and the Digital Product Passport provides complete transparency and EU-compliant documentation.
