Our Story
About us
Learn where Kinnovis came from and how we became both a self-storage operator and a storage software solution.
Who we are
Kinnovis is an AI-powered self-storage management platform built by operators, for operators. Born from real-world necessity, we help facilities across 19 European countries run smoother, sell smarter and serve their customers better.
Our story starts in Austria, where our parent company Zinkpower – a galvanising steel specialist with over 50 locations and 2,700 employees worldwide – ventured into real estate and self-storage. When no software could meet the demands of running a large, autonomous facility, we built our own. That solution became Kinnovis.
Our self-storage background
Since launching STORE ROOM in 2018, the business has grown to several remotely managed self-storage facilities across Austria. The flagship store is also the largest facility in Austria, offering 9,000 sq m of lettable space. At this size, the ability to automate and remove time-consuming, repetitive tasks was a necessity.
What we do
Kinnovis handles the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that slow you down. Online bookings, billing, payments, customer communication, facility management – all automated, all in one place. Our platform includes JaneAI, an award-winning chatbot that provides 24/7 support, personalised quotes and unit recommendations without lifting a finger.
We’ve built our software to be flexible from day one, which means it adapts to how you work, not the other way round.
Where we're going
Today, Kinnovis supports operators across Europe and beyond, helping them focus on growth whilst we handle the admin. We continue to develop new features based on real operator feedback, ensuring the platform evolves alongside the industry.
Our mission is simple: give self-storage operators the tools to run exceptional facilities with less effort and better results.
