ABOUT US
OUR MISSION
Help organizations succeed in high-risk contexts with the power of a data management system that they can easily configure, implement, and leverage without the need for coding.
Since our inception in 2016, we have worked in some of the most challenging contexts in the world supporting governments, security institutions, and organizations in multiple verticals, to manage critical data, map relevant stakeholders, monitor public perceptions of digital media, mitigate risks and measure the performance and impact of your operations, through AKTEK iO, our no-code end-to-end data management platform.
By providing no-code configuration capabilities, AKTEK iO increases the ability of organizational leaders to create and configure a system that meets their current data management needs and evolves with them as those needs change without wasting valuable time and resources working with third parties—developers who may need more clarification on your everyday realities.
