Prodiags

What Prodiags does

Prodiags Oy is a privately held Finnish company founded in 1991 (originally as HMV-Systems) that provides online automotive training modules and an LMS platform for mechanics, workshop managers, trainers, and vocational schools. The company sells 100+ interactive modules covering electrical systems, electronics, engine technology, diagnostics, braking, steering, transmissions, climate control, EV/HEV systems, and workshop operations, delivered through an HTML5-compliant Learning Management System with animations, video, PDF study materials, quizzes, and final exams that issue digitally verified certificates. Modules are available in up to nine languages (Finnish, Swedish, English, German, French, Lithuanian, Estonian, Ukrainian, and Arabic) and the platform supports LTI integration with third-party educational systems.

The company operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct e-commerce sales via prodiags.com/shop with a sales partner/reseller network (e.g., Ryans Automotive in Ireland, Kitakone Oy in Finland) and direct sales to vocational institutions. Pricing is built on a one-time license model per module (EUR 2-54) with 12-month access, supplemented by higher-value Workshop Concepts (Next Level, Personal Skills, Pre-Learning, Re-Ignition) sold to organizations for workforce development. Prodiags claims approximately 95% penetration in Finnish vocational schools and serves users in over 90 countries, with particular presence in Ireland, South Korea, the UAE, and the Baltic states. The company is bootstrapped, headquartered in Vantaa, Finland, employs 11-50 people, and has no disclosed external funding.

Comparable because Snap-on uses its tools distribution network to push training modules to the same independent mechanic base, with bundled channel economics similar to Prodiags' partner model.
