What do we offer

About us

Here at mute-labs, we aim to enable companies to achieve more by democratizing silence in the workspace.

And we’re not like any other Berlin start-up you might know:

We’re “no tech”: We know how to develop and sell great hardware products with a focus on sound-insulated phone- and meeting booths.
We have no investors and we really don’t want any. We've been profitable since day one.
We continue to have a steep growth curve – not in employees or coffee cups consumed, but in revenue and profit.
We’re not striving for an exit – we’re building a sustainable business for many generations to come.
