Hey, we’re Raven.
Our story
Founded on First-Hand Experience
No more pen-and-paper processes
Before Raven, our founder Martin spent 10+ years in manufacturing working in different roles including Manufacturing Engineer, Production Supervisor and Consultant. Martin experienced first-hand the typical pains like 1) time-consuming pen-and-paper processes, 2) growing demands to deliver products on time while reducing costs, and 3) frontline teams who weren’t engaged with the digital solutions available to them. Then he met Braden, who spent 10+ years working in Aerospace Engineering and as a Solutions Analyst in Technology.
Martin and Braden knew that manufacturers needed the right technology and processes alongside their teams to empower them to crush production targets. So in 2015, they started Raven.
The Aha! Moment
Helping manufacturers win by connecting everyone to the facts
Our “Aha!” moment came when we realized that pretty analytics reports didn’t provide much value to manufacturing teams if the data wasn’t up-to-date, accurate and reviewed by both frontline and management teams on a regular basis. And without frontline context, it’s almost impossible to uncover top bottlenecks and improvement opportunities in production operations. What top-tier manufacturers need are real-time insights and guidance — not just more reports and tedious tasks to get there.
Our team has developed an Industry 4.0 technology solution that solves the challenges that many of our team members have faced in their past lives: a fast and simple way to capture, analyze and act on contextualized production data. We’ve loved building Raven and seeing so many teams work better than ever before with it. And we’re not stopping any time soon.
