What Synnax does
We build software that helps hardware teams quickly and clearly evaluate how a component (engine, battery, valve, etc.) or process (assembly line, manufacturing plant) performs. We prevent mistakes, reduce costs, and accelerate time-to-market. Our platform unifies industrial control with sensor data storage and automated post-processing, delivering an end-to-end operations and observability stack. To put it comparatively, take LabVIEW, InfluxDB, and Grafana, wrap them into a single package, add a bit of magic, and you get Synnax.

Company
Synnax
Unified Hardware Control and Data Processing Software
We build software that helps hardware teams quickly evaluate components like engines or batteries, and processes like assembly lines. Our platform integrates industrial control, sensor data storage, and automated post-processing into a single stack. Essentially, we combine the functions of LabVIEW, InfluxDB, and Grafana into one coherent product that reduces mistakes and accelerates hardware development cycles.
We currently live in various locations. After YC, we plan to base the company wherever it makes the most sense to grow and serve our industrial customers efficiently.
We're remote because the hardware industry is distributed and we want to hire the best engineers regardless of location. After YC, we'll choose a base that helps optimize customer engagement and fundraising.
