About RUBINLAKE

1 min read

We build connected products ourselves, from the radio protocol through edge gateway and cloud to the ERP system. These are the systems whose obligations, costs and architecture this report examines.

We build what we advise. Our platform RUBINLAKE.com for sales, recruiting and procurement, winner of the German Innovation Award 2025, combines data from official registers and company websites with real-time signals and our own AI agents. With it we map the markets we write about.

RUBINLAKE was founded in Frankfurt am Main in 2021 and works as a consulting and engineering company for data, AI and connected products, mainly for device manufacturers and network operators. More at rubinlake.com.
