Our mission
Finding your way in an unfamiliar environment should be as easy as possible. We are convinced that an app-integration (“tagging”) in the building will help visitors to feel comfortable quickly and building operations to work more efficiently – this is the aim of contagt.
The smartest way to welcome visitors and manage buildings.
contagt develops software which defines the indoor experience in a completely new way. We solve problems in buildings in an innovative way and want to amaze users. Being a spin-off of the University of Mannheim, research is in our DNA. We are a young team with a strong industry background (IBM, NTT Data, Amadeus, etc.) and a pronounced love for app development, usability, and data privacy.
