The company was founded in 2009, motivated by basic research in software visualisation at the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI) of Potsdam University. The HPI spin-off has specialised in extracting and analysing software engineering data from complex systems and visualising it as a software landscape. The internal workings of a system thereby become visible as a complete whole.
