About Unifize
Industry 5.0 is about connecting people and technology to drive innovation and efficiency. Unifize brings everything together—people, processes, and data—into a cloud-based platform to help regulated industries adapt faster, work smarter, and innovate.
Unifize results from our firsthand experience running FDA and ISO-compliant manufacturing companies for many years. We lived through the frustration of fragmented systems and outdated tools that dominate these industries, which ultimately slow innovation, increase operational risks, and stifle what makes us human: our ability to connect, collaborate, and solve real-world problems creatively.
Founded in 2018, Unifize aims to humanize the world’s processes by building a single, unified platform that connects people, processes, and data. By combining the system of record with the system of collaboration, we empower teams to communicate in context, accelerate cycle times, and reduce the friction that holds organizations back.
Backed by leading, Tier 1 institutional investors, including Techstars ($850m AUM), we’re committed to building the backbone of Industry 5.0—where human-centric workflows, agility, and innovation thrive.
