November 2024
A little late today, since I overate at Christmas and am only just getting out of food coma. But fittingly, this is on the last day of the year, while many of you are reflecting on the year past and the year to come.
We’ve done the same at Authentise and the result is overwhelmingly positive for 2024, and excited about 2025.
We released a ton of exciting features in 2024. It was was undoubtedly the year of AI, so it’s not surprising to see a few of those features in there too. But there was so much more. Here are just a few examples:
Threads <> Flows Integration (Aug): Seamless collaboration between design and production management platforms, keeping all teams aligned like never before.
ThreadsDoc (Nov): Turn collaborative insights into actionable documents—because knowledge should keep working for you!
Workflow Labels (Oct): Effortlessly organize workflows for clarity and efficiency.
Material Management Enhancements (Nov): Unique batch IDs for top-offs and QR code printing—more traceability, less hassle.
Expanded Run Support (Sept): 1000-piece support and Line Item Grouping streamline high-volume manufacturing.
Vendor Managed Inventory (June): Empowering your partners to track and manage tools with ease.
You can, of course, always get a full sense of what we’ve been working on in the monthly emails, which you should have full access to here: https://www.authentise.com/emails-from-the-ceo-2024
The positive year (we ended up beating our own estimates for revenue and profit) is a bit of a surprise given the dour news we’ve had on the additive industry (still our primary market, despite some diversification). There are still plenty of companies that (want to) take additive seriously, and we’re here to help them with a fuller range of products than ever before, from Idea to Part:
We’re excited about 2025, too. We have a significant backlog of features coming online (a lot of improvements to material management, for instance, which I can’t wait to tell you about). There is also a whole new effort in defense that is finally bearing fruit. What a journey – I couldn’t imagine a better team to do it with.
It’s been a pleasure talking to so many of you in the last year. Let’s keep the conversation going!
Happy New Year!
