Imagine this: You've got a ground-breaking idea. A digital solution that could revolutionize the way your organization operates. It's all there in your mind, just waiting to take form. And then, reality hits: lengthy proposals, sky-high budgets, and IT agencies that promise the world, but delivery? That's months away.
This isn't some far-fetched scenario.
It's a digitization challenge faced by many organizations every single day. The swift march of progress often halts to a crawl, as organizations are held ransom to the whims and timelines of IT agencies. And the price tag? Let's not even go there.
But what if there was another way?
A way that puts you in the driver's seat, enabling you to bring your idea to life at your pace and on your terms? That's exactly the solution we're building here at Innoloft with LoftOS.
And guess what? Last week, Innoloft secured a 1 million euro funding round to supercharge this mission and make no-code development a reality for everyone.
Buckle up; here's how we're about to take the digitization highway by storm.
Setting the Stage: The Digitization Challenge
Picture this: a digital landscape desperate for pioneers. The demand is skyrocketing but the number of skilled IT professionals? A mere tumbleweed rolling across the scene.
The very backbone of digitization - IT specialists - will experience a shortage of 85 million globally by 2030 according to an article by The International Monetary Fund.
What does this mean, you ask?
Well, imagine trying to kickstart a rocket with no fuel or running a race with a sprained ankle - tricky, right? That's exactly how the landscape of digitization is shaping up.
This shortage isn't a simple snag, it's a full-on roadblock threatening productivity and competitiveness. And not just for a handful of companies, but for the entire business scape.
Well, this is an increasingly common narrative. Add to it, the interest in computer science studies has seen a nosedive in recent years.
Sure, education and immigration could patch the problem. But when we're staring at a digitization Grand Canyon, these solutions look more like band-aids on a broken arm.
The massiveness of the issue is looming larger than ever, and it's clear we need a more innovative solution.
The IT Bottleneck: Lack of Skilled Developers
Ah, the infamous IT bottleneck.
Stepping into an IT department these days is like stepping into a ghost town. Swivel chairs sit empty, screens remain blank, and keyboards sit idle. A clear sign of the looming specter of IT vacancies. The hum and buzz of innovation, the symphony of clattering keys - all muted.
But here's the kicker: this isn't a scene out of some dystopian movie.
This bottleneck is tangible. It's stifling creativity, curtailing progress, and constraining our ambitions. It's turning our express digitization train into a horse-and-cart ride.
But what if we could smash that barrier to smithereens? What if we had a solution right at our fingertips?
Power to the People: Making Software Development Accessible
Software development has long been the domain of IT wizards, a secret society proficient in the ancient art of coding.
But what if I told you that the power to create software solutions is within your reach?
Yes, you too can join the ranks of these tech-savvy developers, armed with the right tools and a bit of know-how.
And here comes the best part. No more waiting for the techies to conjure up the software solution you need.
We, at Innoloft, truly believe that the power of creation shouldn't be limited to those who can speak the mystical language of code.
Instead, we envision a world where coding is as easy as PowerPoint. A world where anyone with a good idea and a dash of determination can take the reins of digitization.
A world where software development is not just a privilege, but a right for all.
The No-Code Movement Gains Momentum
If the mere sight of code sent shivers down your spine… let me tell you, those days are long gone.
The no-code movement is a trend that's hitting all the right notes in the tech world. It's a liberating symphony for those who have the ideas but lack the code knowledge.
Fancy creating an app? No problem. Want to build an entire website from scratch? Easy-peasy. Need a custom workflow to streamline your business? Consider it done.
With no-code platforms like LoftOS, these are no longer pipe dreams reserved for the few who can decipher lines of code.
The beauty of the no-code movement is that it's not just a trend; it's a paradigm shift in the world of software development.
It's empowering non-techies to create, innovate, and disrupt.
And guess what? We at Innoloft are conducting this symphony, making no-code music that everyone can play.
Our CEO and co-founder, Sven Pietsch, envisions a future where everyone has the ability to create extensive IT solutions independently with ease.
Sven explains, "Just as we taught everyone to use Excel and PowerPoint in the early 2000s, now we must enable everyone to build web applications. This is the only way we can make digitization faster, cheaper and more efficient.”
And with LoftOS, we aim to do just that.
