The start-up is a spin-off of the Hasso Plattner Institute. It is already the second successful sale within a few months for the institute.
The US low-code platform Appian has bought Lana Labs from Berlin. The purchase price is not being disclosed for the time being. Lana Labs is a spin-off of the Hasso Plattner Institute from 2016 and offers AI and machine learning-supported process analysis (process mining) for companies. The start-up was founded by Thomas Baier and Rami-Habib Eid-Sabbagh, who both received their PhDs from the Hasso Platter Institute.
The buyer Appian is a platform-as-a-service company and helps companies program their own software applications. "There's a natural synergy between process mining, process modeling and automation," Appian CEO Matt Calkins said of the purchase. "What we believe in is that with the acquisition of Lana Labs, we at Appian are able to create a unified experience for customers, from analysis to implementation."
This is the second major sale in a few months for the Hasso Plattner Institute. In January, SAP acquired HPI spin-off Signavio for nearly a billion euros.
