The beginning
Abto Software was launched in 2007 by three friends – mathematicians in real life and dreamers at heart. They wanted to bring value to society using the things they loved: science and software technology.
After getting his diploma and real work experience in software development at a big company, one of the owners, Oleksandr Muzychuk, enrolled in “Mathematics for Industry” program at Eindhoven Technical University to further his personal and work development. These two years were very productive, gained different experience, including understanding the connections between math modeling & business; western culture and personal networking. The last one brought the potential customers. The choice was made: to return back (to Lviv, Ukraine), start software engineering company with two close friends and already experienced developers with a strong math and physics roots, to deliver scientific software solutions.
Abto debuted at the EU software market with the development of software for horizontal drilling. It uses math modeling to calculate drilling trajectory and controls drilling process in real time. Today, 18 years and dozens of successful releases after, we are still strategic partners.
At the same time, Abto established a partnership with Lausanne University in Switzerland. Then, there were more challenging and successful projects: aircraft self-testing system and compression behavior modeling of solid foam (printing industry) building the company’s status as a Trusted Partner.
