Digitalization that
actually lands on the desk.
IEX Labs builds custom software and digitizes workflows for craft businesses, small and medium enterprises and founders. Consulting, development, rollout – from a single source, no buzzwords.
Industry experience
We know the daily reality – not just the slide.
The experience IEX Labs is built on comes from years of working with businesses across crafts, trade, services and founder teams in the German-speaking region. It spans process projects in banking, digital tools for construction sites and craft businesses, software for gardening companies, electrical contractors and heating installers, and digitalization support for founders launching organic shops, creative agencies and car dealerships.
That breadth of practice is our foundation: real businesses, real workflows, real people at the desk, in the warehouse, on the construction site and in the office. The first lines of code from the team go back to 1997 – IEX Labs UG was founded in 2026 to bring exactly that experience under one roof.

Our approach
We come to you. To where the work actually happens.
Business problems don't get solved in meeting rooms. Not with slides. Not with buzzwords. We sit down with you, walk through the workflow together and show where time, nerves and margin are being lost every day. Only then do we talk about software, tools or AI.
- Understand the workflow first, then talk about technology
- Complete solutions from a single source – consulting, development, rollout
- Custom software on proven standards, GDPR and EU hosting
- AI only where it delivers real value – never as a fig leaf
“When were you last in an actual business, on site?”
An hour ago. Afterwards we knew exactly where time gets lost every day.
Three people. Three Excel files. Three different truths. And one single version that nobody gets to see.
→ That is exactly where IEX Labs starts.
Services
What we deliver
Four ways we move craft businesses, SMEs and founders in the DACH region one step forward.
On-site visit with immediate analysis
We come to your business. Half or full day. Afterwards you get a written report with three to five concrete pain points, savings potential in euros, and clear recommendations. No slides, no theory – just what we actually saw on site.
Digitalization audit & quick-win project
Two to six weeks focused on one specific pain point: replacing Excel, quotes and order management, customer data, invoicing, scheduling, digital forms. You get a working solution, documentation, onboarding – and a measurable improvement in day-to-day work.
Custom software development
We build custom web applications, internal tools, dashboards or customer portals. Modern web standards, relational databases, EU hosting, GDPR-compliant. Built for actual day-to-day use in the business, not for a product demo.
Fractional CTO & technology sparring
Monthly retainer for companies and founders without their own CTO. Architecture decisions, vendor selection, roadmap, translating between tech and management. Years of experience – without the cost of a full-time executive.
