Oden Technologies

Oden Technologies is a manufacturing software company headquartered in New York City, with an additional office in Altrincham, United Kingdom, founded in 2014 by Willem Sundblad and Peter Brand to help front-line factory teams make faster, data-driven decisions. The company serves manufacturers such as INX International Ink, Lake Cable, Teknor Apex and Greif across process and discrete industries.

Its platform, built around a Data Engine, Process AI and Factory Analytics, collects and contextualizes machine data, then applies AI to generate real-time predictions and recommendations for operators aimed at increasing output, improving quality, cutting cost and reducing downtime. A newer Forge AI Agents layer acts as a command center for coordinating automated actions across connected operations.
