We built UP2D8 because 80% of workers were invisible to internal comms.
A platform built for every employee, not just the ones with a desk
UP2D8 was born in 2021 from the lessons of COVID-19 and the shift to remote and hybrid work. Rovata BV, founded in Belgium, built UP2D8 to solve a problem that most communication tools ignore: the 80% of employees who don't sit at a desk. Today, organisations in manufacturing, cleaning, events, and government use UP2D8 to reach every worker — without email, without a company device, and without the GDPR risk of WhatsApp.
UP2D8 is a GDPR-compliant internal communication platform built for organisations with deskless, blue-collar, and frontline workers. It requires no company email, no work device, and goes live in 7 days.
What we stand for
Security first
GDPR-compliant by design. Closed platform. Sensitive data invisible by default. Your employees' data stays safe.
Inclusive by design
No company email required. Works on personal smartphones, tablets, or PCs. Available in NL, EN, FR, IT, PL, RO, SV, PT, NO, RU and TR so no employee is left behind.
Community-driven
We form a community of organisations that care about what their members have to say. Two-way communication is at the core of everything we build.
