ABOUT CELUS
Electronics design runs on habit. An engineer reaches for the component they used last time, because properly evaluating a new one costs hours nobody has. The decision gets made early and quietly, and then it is locked.
CELUS exists to change what happens in that moment. Our platform turns a requirement into a working schematic in minutes, and gives the people who manufacture components a way into the decision while it is still open.
Founded in 2018 in Munich by Tobias Pohl, Alexander Pohl and André Alcalde.
Today we work from Munich, Porto and Austin.
