Gloucestershire-based maintenance technology startup iMaintain has secured more than £250,000 in pre-seed funding, with backing from early-stage investor SFC Capital.

The company is developing a platform that helps manufacturers capture and reuse maintenance knowledge to reduce repeat faults and improve operational reliability.

The funding will support further product development, expanded customer deployments and the scaling of its AI-driven capabilities.

The business is already working with manufacturers across the UK and now plans to grow its footprint.
