How it started

The idea was born on a building site. When one of our co-founders was building a house, he saw first-hand how slow and wasteful the road to a building permit is. Most of the time went not on deciding, but on waiting, searching and retyping. That is when we asked ourselves whether it could be done differently.

Why we do this today

Slow, overly bureaucratic procedures hold back the building of homes, businesses and public infrastructure. We cannot afford that. With Rubiqo we want to give the people who review applications back time for expert work, and shorten the road to a building permit for investors, without compromising the quality of decisions.
