30 years Neuber Software

30 years ago we founded Neuber Software in the basement of our parents' house. Our first software products were the Typing Center and Typograf. These were distributed as shareware at that time - first on floppy disks, then on CD-ROM and from 1996 on via the Internet. Since 2019, AI tools have been part of our daily toolset for developing new web applications. We are committed to founders and in social projects in our region. It is important to us that we still answer every email from our users personally.
