Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Steerpath is a Finnish B2B SaaS company providing software for hybrid workplaces, built on its own indoor positioning, indoor mapping and occupancy analytics technology. Its Smart Office product offers week planning (indicating whether colleagues are working remotely, in the office or elsewhere), desk and capacity booking for shared neighbourhoods, meeting room booking with native Microsoft Office 365 and Google Workspace support, a colleague finder, 3D-map wayfinding, mobile door unlocking, and in-app feedback on spaces.

A second product line, Steerpath Smart Campus, targets universities and hospitals with interactive wayfinding, real-time space availability, multi-language support, room booking and service maps covering amenities such as restaurants and parking, deliverable to web, digital signage and mobile. Across both lines, the company provides occupancy analytics that connect IoT sensors to dashboards visualised on 3D maps, going beyond reservation data to show actual usage, how different teams work, where space is underused, and predictive utilization metrics intended to flag demand fluctuations in advance.

Founding story

The company was founded in 2013 by Mikko Virkkilä, Tuomas Ilola and Sam Pullen, who are described as having decades of combined experience in product development, Bluetooth and other wireless technologies. Tuomas Ilola serves as CEO, Mikko Virkkilä as CTO and Sam Pullen as COO.

Business model

Steerpath sells a B2B SaaS workplace solution to organizations, combining a mobile and web application for employees with administrator-facing analytics. The Smart Office application integrates with Microsoft Office 365 and Google Workspace, using single sign-on for authentication; calendar and booking data are read from and written back to the customer's existing cloud environment rather than stored on Steerpath servers. Delivery includes a turnkey service in which the Steerpath team digitizes initial maps and trains customer staff, after which customers manage maps through a web-based editor. Separate packaged offerings exist for offices (Smart Office) and for universities and hospitals (Smart Campus). The company has also developed an internal venture under a separate brand, Spacehub, offering small bookable work pods in shopping centres and similar locations.

Revenue comes from B2B SaaS software for hybrid workplaces and campus wayfinding, complemented by turnkey services such as initial map digitisation and customer training. Third-party estimates place annual revenue below $1M.

Traction

Deployments referenced by the company include Finland's largest university campus, one of the world's largest hospitals, a 250,000 m2 building and 150,000 m2 government real estate, plus Singapore Airport for high-fidelity mapping and an event deployment used by 15,000 Slush attendees. Customers are mostly Finnish-headquartered large companies, including broadcaster MTV, with additional customers in the UK and US. The team numbered about 15 people, and third-party data reports roughly 12 employees and under $1M in annual revenue as of July 2026.

Latest developments

Product updates published in March 2022 describe week-planning and My Team features intended to replace spreadsheets and inflexible desk-booking systems for multi-location work. Third-party listings estimate roughly 12 employees and annual revenue below $1M as of July 2026.

Market position

Steerpath is a small Finnish vendor in the hybrid workplace and indoor mapping software market, with reference deployments cited including Finland's largest university campus, a hospital ranked among the world's ten largest, government real estate of 150,000 m2, a 250,000 m2 building, and Singapore Airport. Its customers include large Nordic brands such as MTV, Finland's largest commercial TV broadcaster.

Steerpath emphasises interactive 3D indoor maps generated automatically from CAD and other data sources, described as a digital twin that scales from individual furniture to whole campuses and multi-terminal airports, combined with its own indoor positioning and turn-by-turn navigation. It also highlights a privacy-oriented architecture in which calendar and reservation data remain in the customer's Microsoft or Google cloud rather than on Steerpath servers, and a user-centric approach that adds team behaviour analytics and user feedback on spaces alongside building-oriented optimisation.

Technology

The platform is built on interactive 3D indoor maps generated automatically from CAD and other data sources, indoor positioning with turn-by-turn navigation, seamless indoor-outdoor mapping, mobile door access, and occupancy analytics fed by IoT sensors and visualised in real time on the maps. Maps are managed via a web-based editor with customisable light and dark themes and can be displayed on web, digital signage and mobile. Integrations cover Microsoft Office 365 and Google Workspace with single sign-on. Reported technologies in use include React, Modernizr, iOS, Swift, Squarespace, Open Graph, Bunny CDN and Weglot.

Go-to-market

The company sells directly to enterprises and institutions, offering consultancy scheduling and product briefs on its site, and works through partners such as Atea, with which it began commercial cooperation in 2020. Reference deployments and customer testimonials — including from Slush and from WayStride — are used in marketing, and separate product pages address office, university and hospital buyers.

Typical customers are larger organizations with 1,000 or more employees managing hybrid or multi-location work, plus universities, hospitals, government real estate operators and airports needing campus wayfinding and room booking.

Geography

Steerpath is headquartered in Espoo, Uusimaa, Finland, with an office in Alberga Business Park in Leppävaara; a 2021 press announcement carried both Helsinki, Finland and Boston, Massachusetts datelines. Most customers are headquartered in Finland, with additional customers in the UK and the US, and stated plans to focus on the Nordic market.

History

Steerpath was founded in 2013. Its product line expanded from indoor mapping, positioning and wayfinding into hybrid workplace management: a digital map and route guide for a hospital environment was introduced around mid-2020, commercial cooperation with Atea began in May 2020, and the MyTeam collaboration feature was added to the Smart Office toolkit in February 2021. Later product content, published in Finnish in March 2022, describes week-planning and My Team features positioned as replacements for spreadsheets and rigid desk-reservation systems. The team grew to about 15 people, working from an office in Alberga Business Park in Leppävaara, Espoo.
