    We decide by looking at customers, the shop floor, data and technology from every angle.

    We choose what truly works over what is trendy or flashy.

Where the name comes from

"Mech" stands for machines: the world of manufacturing and the shop floor. The owl has long been a symbol of wisdom, and in Japanese its name, fukurō, can also be read as 不苦労, "without hardship".

MechOwl carries our wish to take the hardship out of manufacturing with the wisdom of the shop floor and the power of AI.
