We build tools for people who build things. Practical software and hardware for engineering, scientific, and manufacturing work.
Slant Tech was founded on a simple idea: create tools to help people.
We've spent time in labs, production floors, and workbenches. We've seen teams fight with software that was designed by people who never touched the work. We've watched engineers struggle with internal tools that were slapped together because nothing suited their needs.
That's why we build differently. We prioritize ease of use over flashy features. Our products are designed to solve problems we have had ourselves, not just what will look good to investors. Most importently, the products make you actually want to use them. Where possible, we open source our work and offer self-hosted options: your tools shouldn't hold your data hostage nor become paperweights overnight.
Based in the US.
Building for people who make things.
Our products go through rigorous design cycles to not only look and feel good, but perform well.
We default to GPLv3, to allow others to learn from our work and continue to collaborate with the community.
No matter the difficulty of implementation, we will find ways to help fulfill real industry needs.
