Industrial software that takes work off your hands.
Test equipment under control, working time within the law, first article inspection reports in minutes, 8D reports inside the deadline: four programs, each solving its task completely. Engineered and hosted in Germany – for businesses across Europe, the USA and China.
Four programs from one company – each solves its job completely, even on its own.
The product family
Four programs. One standard.
Every irot product solves one job completely – built to the same principles, with the price on the page instead of in a quote.

From one company
From measured value to decision.
Your shop floor captures, the software turns it into due dates, reports and decisions – and one provider stands behind all four programs.
Why irot
Tools that take work off your hands. Not software that creates it.
We build every product to the same principles – learned on the shop floor, not at the drawing board.
Clear over clever
Two keystrokes for the most frequent task. Nobody needs a training week – irot software explains itself while you work.
Your data, kept separate
No customer sees another customer's data – enforced by the technology, not by a setting. With irot Time, every customer even gets a dedicated instance. Export at any time.
Engineered in Germany
Based in Velbert, hosted in Germany, contracts under German law. Short paths instead of a ticket queue on another continent.
Standards built in
ISO 9001, IATF 16949, BetrSichV, DGUV and working-time law: the requirements live inside the product – not inside a consulting contract.
Fair prices, clear models
Fixed prices instead of a licence jungle, free entry tiers, perpetual licences where they fit. Pay for what you use – growth is never punished.
Industries
At home wherever things are measured, made and tested.
irot comes from Germany's tool-making heartland – and speaks the language of manufacturing, trades and quality assurance.
Machining & metalwork
Gauges, first articles, complaints and working time – the core of irot since its first product.
Machine & plant engineering
First article reports, calibration records, complaints and hours per job – the evidence your customer wants to see.
Automotive suppliers
IATF 16949 with MSA, traceability and the audit binder – ready for every customer audit.
Trades & construction
Time tracking with job-site assignment and equipment testing – the office rides along on the phone.
Labs & quality assurance
Calibration, measurement uncertainty and controlled climate – traceably documented to ISO.
Services
More than programs: help getting started.
If you want support, you get it – from the people who built the programs.
Setup & training
Set up together, your existing data imported, your team trained – so the first benefit arrives on day one.
Interfaces & your own server
irot Kalibrat and irot Time have a REST API and run on your own server if you prefer; plus Excel import and export.
irot Knowledge
Know-how your business actually needs.
