We build products that solve business problems.

EFEX Innovation is a Melbourne technology consultancy. We design, build and run mobile applications, connected devices, and the cloud systems behind them — and we do all of it with one team, which is why our work spans a circuit board and a cloud platform in the same product.

What we have built

The PreStartGo interlock device, a sealed enclosure that wires into a machine's starter circuit.

PreStartGo

Equipment compliance, enforced in hardware. A machine will not start until its pre-start inspection passes — the check is wired into the starter circuit rather than left to a policy document.

NipperHub — a multi-club platform for surf life saving.

NipperHub

A multi-club platform for surf life saving. Registration, payments, rosters and beach-day operations for clubs and the families in them.

Two screens from the Nyckel app: the sign-in screen, and a map showing lockout and access padlocks across a site.

SmartLox

Nyckel: digital lockout-tagout and keyless access for industrial sites. Bluetooth padlocks replace lockboxes and master keys — and the app keeps working in the plant rooms and remote assets where isolation actually happens, and coverage does not.

What we do

01

Mobile apps

Flutter applications for iOS and Android, built to keep working when the network doesn't.

02

IoT solutions

Firmware for ESP32 devices: Bluetooth, relay control, and the protocols that tie hardware to an app.

03

Hardware services

Circuit board design through to CE, FCC and RCM certification.

04

Cloud

Google Cloud infrastructure as code, continuous delivery, and the security work that goes with it.
