The FLECS Platform
Software-defined automation for industry – modular, open, scalable.
Modern automation is built on software. FLECS provides everything you need to run, manage, and monetize industrial apps – on any device, under your brand.
FLECS is the foundation for modern industrial automation systems. Our modular platform unites app management, OS-level integration, lifecycle services, and distribution capabilities – fully adaptable to your business model.
Core – The Engine of Software-defined Machines

Modular architecture
Built with flexibility in mind: microservices, messaging layers, and optional extensions can be added at runtime. Ideal for scalable and upgradable systems.
CLI & API
Fully scriptable and automatable through our command-line interface and REST API. Enables deep integration with CI/CD and remote orchestration tools.

WebApp – Manage Everything in Your Browser
The browser-based WebApp runs directly on each device and lets you manage apps, updates, networks, and roles – remotely or locally.
Highlights:
- Intuitive UI for developers and admins
- OTA updates and network setup
- Role-based access, branding, and extension-ready
Marketplace – Software Distribution, Simplified
The integrated FLECS Marketplace brings apps to your devices in just a few clicks – whether you’re distributing internally, with partners, or as a scalable business model.
Choose from over 70 ready-to-use industrial apps from trusted vendors, or publish your own applications – public or private – tailored to your users’ needs.
Public and private app repositories
Give your users access to a curated catalog of public apps, or create private repositories that are only visible within your organization or partner ecosystem. This allows you to control access, group visibility, and rollout strategies – perfect for OEMs and system integrators with tailored app portfolios.
License models: free, paid, subscription
Support for multiple business models: publish apps free of charge, sell them with a one-time license fee, or offer subscription-based pricing (monthly, yearly). You define pricing tiers, trial periods, and user limits – FLECS handles the licensing infrastructure, payment processing, and renewal flows.
Whitelabeled stores with custom branding & filters
Your own fully branded App Store, customized to your brand identity and target markets. Use category filters, feature tags, or customer-specific app bundles to streamline discovery and improve user experience. Marketplace views can be configured per user role, group, or tenant – and seamlessly integrate into your platform branding.
Whitelabeling – Your Platform. Your Brand.
Tailor the user experience to your own brand identity – from the WebApp UI to your own marketplace domain. Our whitelabel subscription packages offer the flexibility and power you need.
Build your own branded industrial automation platform. With the FLECS Whitelabeling Subscription, you control the full software experience — from the WebApp on the device to your own App Store.
Perfect for OEMs, software vendors, and system integrators, our packages scale with your business model. Every subscription begins with the FLECSelerator onboarding, ensuring your platform is ready for production use in just weeks.
