About Us

At NDEVR, we take a hybrid approach to helping our customers by providing high-end proprietary software and custom shared software where needed. We offer various code-ownership models to fill any gaps and get your product to market faster, and with higher quality.

Our Story

NDEVR was founded on May 26, 2018 in Oakland City, Indiana. The idea from the start was to build software once, as modules, and reuse those modules across every product. Our first scanning and surveying tools were built together with partners who used them in the field.

In 2019 we moved to Seattle, Washington, where the company is still headquartered. The module toolkit has kept growing since then. It now powers our desktop and mobile design software and OWL, our encrypted file and collaboration platform.

Milestones

2018Oakland City, Indiana

NDEVR is founded on May 26th. We begin building our scanning and surveying engine and start a long-running collaboration with Carlson Software.

2019Seattle, Washington

We relocate to Seattle and establish our headquarters, and ship Merlin alongside our DeltaV crash-analysis platform.

2020Carlson Scan

We release Carlson Scan, bringing our scanning and surveying engine to the field.

2021Carlson Boretrak

Carlson Boretrak ships, extending our toolkit to borehole deviation surveying.

2023A modular foundation

We refactor the toolkit into a fully modular system so that new workflows can be built and deployed faster.

2025OWL Platform

We launch OWL, a file and collaboration platform. With provider-held recovery disabled, file and chat content is end-to-end encrypted and the server cannot read it.

2026QUAIL & AI

We add QUAIL, an AI assistant that answers questions about the user’s own data, across the OWL apps.

Mission & Values

We turn hard, specific problems into reliable software. Because every product shares one modular foundation, improvements made for one client reach all of them.

Modular by design

Logic, templates and UI are built as standalone components that can be recombined. New workflows are assembled from parts that already work.

Collaboration first

We excel at communication and partnership. Our customers’ voices have a direct impact on everything we build.

Quality that lasts

Consistent enhancements through our modular toolset mean higher quality and fewer surprises, release after release.

Security you own

You choose the code-ownership model for custom work and the encryption settings for your OWL data, so you know exactly who can read what.

Delivering Value for our Clients

Our team is dedicated to developing unique and innovative solutions to client needs and providing consistent enhancements through our modular toolset. We excel at communication and collaboration to achieve success. As we continue to grow and evolve, our customers’ voices will always have a direct impact on everything we do.

Our Development Model

NDEVR utilizes a Configuration Driven Development (CDD) model by internally formatting logic, templates, and UI components in a highly modular standalone fashion. This allows us to have a module toolkit that can be used to rapidly develop and deploy new and unique workflows to meet our users’ unique needs.

Our approach enables us to excel in flexibility, compatibility, and — notably — the dynamic linking of logic groups in reconfigurable ways.
