Indeema

Indeema is a software and hardware engineering company focused on AI-powered IoT systems, founded in 2014 and headquartered in Lviv, Ukraine, with offices in Wrocław, Poland and Wilmington, Delaware. The company operates with 100+ IoT experts and has completed over 120 IoT projects across industrial, energy, automotive, healthcare, and consumer sectors. Indeema combines embedded development, firmware design, and cloud architecture to build systems where sensor data flows into AI algorithms that make autonomous decisions, reducing human intervention and operational costs.

The company positions itself as end-to-end: you don't negotiate separately with a cloud vendor and a hardware manufacturer. Indeema owns the full stack from device to analytics platform. They emphasize transparency—every project ships with complete technical and operational documentation, deliberately avoiding vendor lock-in. Their R&D center in Lviv absorbs technical risk before clients commit serious budget, validating feasibility on real hardware before full production development.

Services and capabilities

Indeema's service menu splits across three pillars: AI-IoT development, consulting, and post-launch support.

Development services cover cognitive IoT systems that combine real-time data collection, anomaly detection, and predictive maintenance; AI-enabled firmware and devices that run machine learning models on-chip rather than in the cloud; edge and gateway intelligence for low-latency processing; and data analytics platforms that extract insights from raw sensor streams. The company also does custom UI/UX design for IoT applications and builds Android and iOS mobile apps for device management.

Consulting includes IoT strategy work—helping teams understand where IoT fits in their business, what use cases matter, and whether a given problem actually needs IoT or would be cheaper to solve another way. Their tech advisory offering draws on eight years of project experience to assess technology risk, architecture fit, and security posture before coding begins.

Post-production support ranges from bug fixes and security patches to feature rollouts. The company guarantees critical issues are addressed within eight hours of notification.

Cloud infrastructure spans AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Firmware targets microcontroller units (MCUs), system-on-chip designs, and modems. Connectivity includes BLE, Zigbee, Wi-Fi, LoRa, NB-IoT, and LTE depending on power and range requirements. Hardware design covers analog and digital sensor fusion, printed circuit board schematics, and integration with secure element ICs.

Notable work

VikingScada (USA, 2018–2022, 9 engineers) was a web and IoT application for monitoring SCADA units in oil, water, and gas. The system reduced manual measurement time and eliminated human error in fuel accounting across distributed equipment.

A Swiss solar energy manager (2018–ongoing) built a web service for distributed PV system management and energy optimization. The platform lets installer companies configure systems, visualize production and consumption trends, and optimize storage dispatch—saving money and shortening payback periods on hardware investment.

ViDiSy (iReDS variant, Switzerland, 2017–2019, 12 engineers) monitors rotating machinery to detect faults and prevent downtime. The hardware-software system captures vibration data, runs diagnostics locally, and provides maintenance alerts with root cause identification.

UBreez (USA, 2018–2021, 8 engineers) is Indeema's own air-quality monitoring product, consisting of an IoT device, cloud platform, and mobile app for home and commercial use. They've also built drone flight stacks for a UK aerospace company (ongoing, 6 engineers) and electric bike telemetry systems for German automotive clients (2021–2022, 6 engineers).

How they work

Indeema follows a structured eight-phase process. Discovery maps business goals and constraints, then Architecture & R&D explores technology options and sketches a scalable design. Proof of concept and prototyping validate riskier assumptions with working hardware before full commitment. Detailed specifications document UX flows and technical requirements. End-to-end development covers backend, frontend, firmware, data pipelines, and cloud integrations. Testing validates functionality, performance, security, and real-world usability. Deployment handles launch, system integration, and data migration. Operations & optimization covers ongoing monitoring, patching, and improvement based on live usage.

The company does not publicly list hourly rates or fixed-price models on the sourced material, though case studies show team sizes ranging from 6 to 12 engineers for major projects. Engagement can be full-cycle development (idea to production), dedicated team augmentation, or advisory-only. Communication and detailed reporting are highlighted in client testimonials—engineers provide written estimates for feature requests and maintain transparent time tracking.

Team and credentials

Indeema was founded in 2014 as a spinoff from PLLUG, an educational community started in 2007. The company now employs 100+ IoT specialists across Lviv and Wrocław. Key credentials include AWS Partner status (2024), Microchip Design Partner certification, and membership in the Avnet IoT Partner Program. In 2019 Clutch awarded them a leader badge for top B2B development companies in Ukraine. The company was a finalist for Ukraine Tech CES (2019) via the Ukrainian venture capital and private equity association. Recent moves include acquiring Vakoms (2025) and Perfsol, and opening a dedicated AI R&D office. The team speaks English, Polish, and Ukrainian; no specific proficiency metrics are stated in the source.
