iMaintain, a Gloucestershire, United Kingdom-based AI-driven maintenance technology company, has successfully closed a £250,000 pre-seed funding round to accelerate development and adoption of its AI-enabled platform that helps manufacturers capture, structure, and reuse critical maintenance knowledge. The company’s software combines predictive maintenance, real-time asset tracking, and workflow automation to help manufacturing organisations optimise asset management and reduce unplanned downtime by turning everyday engineering experience into shared intelligence. The new capital will be deployed to accelerate product development, expand customer deployments across manufacturing environments, and enhance AI-driven features that support practical, outcome-focused maintenance solutions in real-world factory settings. iMaintain was founded by Hannah Savagar and Adam Stockwell, two industry veterans with deep operational and product expertise in the industrial tech sector, and serves customers across the UK manufacturing and engineering landscape. At the centre of this funding round was a key investment from SFC Capital, a UK-based early-stage investment firm known for backing ambitious technology companies and supporting innovation across sectors. This pre-seed round marks a significant milestone for iMaintain as it transitions from proof-of-concept to scaling its product and market reach. The backing from experienced investors underscores confidence in iMaintain’s vision to modernise maintenance practices by building reliable AI foundations that deliver real operational value.
