Knowit Products develops proprietary digital solutions positioned between off-the-shelf software and pure consultancy, used by public, private, financial, defense, and information security sectors.

Notable work

The Pluxee platform demonstrates Knowit Connectivity's depth in fintech. Built in partnership since 2019, the solution required secure, scalable infrastructure compliant with strict payment and banking regulations while handling rapid user growth. The platform now serves 1 million registered users with top ratings on Google Play and Apple App Store. Pluxee awards Knowit top scores annually for delivery quality, collaboration, and innovation, and considers the firm a proactive strategic partner.

Other reference projects include work with Stockholm Exergi on sustainable energy infrastructure, Fazer on growth strategy execution, Kappahl Group on AI-powered product feeds, Helen (a major Finnish energy company) on data-driven energy transition, and Lagkagehuset, a bakery chain whose website renewal increased basket size by 250 percent. Knowit also built an AI-powered monitoring system for critical infrastructure (client anonymous) and designed an AWS landing zone for a global enterprise.
