Is your team's growing work about to drown you in spreadsheets and disconnected apps?

There's a better way.

A lot of software tools promise to help. You may have tried some and found they take a long time to learn, don't do everything you need, or do nearly endless things you don't need — as you discover again each time you go down a rabbit hole trying to figure some feature out.

Business Engine is different. Designed for 5 to 50 people working together, it's set up specifically for you. Every screen is one you use. Every field is applicable to you. All your organization's data is connected and lives in one, easy-to-use system that gives you automatic reports, automatic emails, pushes data to the web, pulls data from the web, and much more.

Business Engine multiplies your team by automating routine tasks, then saves weeks not minutes with automations built just for you. Some customers get twice as much work done with the same staff after automation.

We love business automation! At Mighty Ant DataWorks (the company that created Business Engine) we've been creating it for over 35 years. Now new technologies have enabled us to create Business Engine and bring to small and medium-sized organizations capabilities previously only available in multi-million-dollar custom systems.

Top universities, corporations, and non-profits use Business Engine every day to automate their work.

If you're looking to upgrade your group's tools to dramatically increase what your team can do, we invite you to check Business Engine out. To see if it might be a fit for you, and try it out yourself, schedule a demo. We'd be honored to have you as a customer.

Thank you,

An Exceptional Team
To Multiply Your Own

The chief designer of Business Engine is a nationally award-winning software developer, Caltech computer science grad, whose work was on display is the Smithsonian for over 15 years. The co-creator of Business Engine lead the transformation of Walt Disney Feature Animation from hand-drawn to computer animation, and is now a multidisciplinary AI expert. The Business Engine system allows us provide, for teams of 5 to 50 people, best in class systems across multiple industries.

With Business Engine, different customers have different screens and reports, but the features are shared.

Some example setups:

The World's Best Undergraduate Research Office Program Management System

With Business Engine technology we created the most comprehensive system for undergraduate research office program management available, developed and refined over a more than 20-year period at top research universities.

The first undergraduate research group we automated more than doubled the program size they could handle with the same staff.

A different university group we set up in Business Engine saved a month of staff time annually with a single automation created for them — which they tell us paid for the system all by itself.

Automating Work at an Industrial Equipment Rental and Calibration Company

RPM Test Equipment Solutions in California needed some standard things: purchase orders, quotes, tracking rentals, repairs, invoices, and inventory — all of which Business Engine does.

But they also needed non-standard things, such as handling equipment calibration, calibration certificates, and calibration tracking integrated into their rental system. Off-the-shelf rental software doesn't do that, but Business Engine was specifically created to handle customization.

Business Engine's turn-key system doing just what RPM needs has been a key contributor to their growth.

Full Automation for Durable Medical Equipment Loan Charities

Durable medical equipment charities loan out wheelchairs, hospital beds, walkers, and other equipment to people in need.

In 2012 we started working with The Convalescent Aid Society, a national leader in DME loan. Our system created for the Convalescent Aid Society handles all aspects of operations, from online applications, appointment management, inventory and depreciation tracking, donation handling, thank you notes, fundraising features, and more.

Other charities also use Business Engine benefiting from similar features, each set up specifically for them.

Your industry is probably not one of the above, but the functions used in each system are ones used by almost every group. We've made software to manage construction of space probes, to handle large patent and licensing portfolios, to do property management, or, just as another random example, track the licensing of images for the Audrey Hepburn Estate so the income from that could be used to support children's charities.

For all these groups, screens and fields and reports differ by setup, but the core system is the same. It used to take months (or years) to make a custom system, but with Business Engine you can be set up in a week or two. Find any data, get automatic reports, automatic emails, tracking of actions, files, and other data — Business Engine lets you move faster, benefit from best practices from many organizations, and fully automate work that used to take days or weeks.

A System Customized to You

Business Engine setup is customized for you — every screen, field, and report in your system is something your team actually uses. But while your screens and fields are distinct, the overall functions of the system are shared.

Almost every organization, for example, needs to track contacts — the people and organizations you work with. Every organization needs to send emails. Every organization needs to track actions, and reminders, or sometimes wants to attach files to any type of record, or do dozens of other things Business Engine automatically provides. This huge overlap in functionality different groups need (and noticing we were creating the same features over and over again for 35+ years in different systems) is part of what led us to create Business Engine.

A system set up just with what you need is easier to use, saves time, and with Business Engine supports custom automations specific to your business saving you weeks of work a year.

You don't just save time when using Business Engine, but also when getting set up. New customers can be online in just a week or two, with new custom screens, your old data migrated into the new system, and your team trained on the new system.

Customer Story

Synergy Community Development

We wrestled with the idea of attempting to develop a solution in-house, but ended up just not having the time, resources or expertise. When we did proceed with Mighty Ant, we got a product delivered on time, on budget, and which had mobile capabilities that weren’t even in the project specification that let us use the system not just in the office but also out in the field.

Mighty Ant was able to understand the big picture of our business model and what we were attempting to do in our industry, giving us a solution that met our current needs, but also had the flexibility to grow and expand with us as we moved forward executing our business model. Mighty Ant excels at simplifying and combining complex databases and making it usable for our employees with custom reporting.

We liked that Mighty Ant wasn’t locked into one or two technologies, but had a large toolbox to choose from to bring the project to fruition. Mighty Ant was platform and technology agnostic which allows our employees to use whatever computer or device they choose.

If You’re Doing Things Right,
Some of Your Systems Are a Disaster

Customized business software analogized as a friendly chicken (you read it here first, folks)

Every growing organization looks like a mess from the inside sometimes. You’re growing – so by definition you’re doing something right! But, at the same time, if you’re growing, you’re also outgrowing older ways of doing things. Sales leads or follow-up calls could be tracked on Post-its when you were a one person operation, inventory could be kept in Excel at the start, to do lists could just be your team’s email inboxes when you’re getting off the ground, but as you grow and succeed, processes you’ve outgrown don’t just slow work down, they start to fall apart.

When we go into a successful, growing business of 20 people and see their operations are run with tottering piles of paper files plastered with Post-its, with checks paperclipped to the outside of the folders (that occasionally fall off and get lost) we give that business team a huge high five — for two reasons: 1) these people run a successful business, and are able to keep the growing even when about to be swamped by outdated business processes, and 2) these folks are going to LOVE having an automated system to do their work — and they have only the first inkling of how great it will be.

Replacing cumbersome or broken business processes with Business Engine makes people as happy as a three-year-old holding a very friendly chicken. Even better, the chicken follows you home afterward, starts doing many of your chores, and then provides color charts showing the hugely positive return on investment of its efforts on your behalf.

We should all have such a chicken!
