About Azumuta

Azumuta is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform designed to digitize and connect frontline operations for manufacturing companies. The company was founded in 2016 by Batist Leman, who serves as the CEO. It is headquartered in Ghent, Belgium, and also has a presence in Detroit, Michigan. The platform aims to replace paper-based processes, spreadsheets, and legacy systems with a unified, operator-centric solution. Azumuta's core offering focuses on several key modules: digital work instructions, quality management, audits and digital checklists, and a skills matrix with training. These modules are designed to improve operational efficiency, ensure product compliance, and increase agility on the shop floor. Features include interactive step-by-step guides with videos and 3D models, real-time data capture, issue tracking via Kanban boards, and audit planning. The system is built to support clients in industries such as food and beverage, heavy industry, and general manufacturing, with notable customers including Toyota, Pfizer, Atlas Copco, and Duvel Moortgat. Azumuta's business model is subscription-based, offering a modular platform that allows clients to choose the functionalities they need. The software integrates with existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and supports machine connectivity. The company reports that its solution can lead to significant improvements for its users, including a 60% reduction in quality complaints and a 50% decrease in administrative time. The company has secured a total of $12.3 million in funding over three rounds. Its first seed round was in 2016. A Series A round in October 2023 raised €2.8 million ($2.95M) with participation from PMV and Angelwise. This was followed by a larger Series A round in November 2025, which raised €8 million ($9.26M) and was led by Keen Venture Partners, with Capricorn Partners and previous investors also participating. This funding is intended to fuel international expansion, team growth, and further development of its AI-supported capabilities.
