About Us

Bringing calm and productive flow to workplaces around the globe.

Origins

Light Bulb Moment

GembaDocs was born on the factory floor. After years of helping manufacturing teams improve quality and efficiency, Tom Hughes (founder/CEO) saw a consistent problem -procedures were either missing, outdated, or too complicated to follow.

He knew there had to be a better way. So, he set out to create a tool that made documenting Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) simple, fast, and usable for the people who actually do the work.

What started as a practical solution to a real-world problem of document procedures at Lumen Electronics, has grown into a platform trusted by frontline teams around the world.
