Case Study: Geospace-HBD achieves licensed, billable device usage with App Verticals

Geospace-HBD turns 20,000 unbilled scans into licensed revenue with App Verticals

The hardware company Geospace-HBD builds IoT sensors that detect concealed people in vehicles at border checkpoints. Their challenge was a complete lack of software to license their devices, meter usage, or bill customers, which meant valuable scans were given away for free and invoicing was done manually on paper. They engaged App Verticals to build the missing software layer.

App Verticals rebuilt the platform from scratch, creating a backend with device licensing, per-scan metering, and automated invoicing, supported by three role-based web portals. This solution successfully made 20,000 previously unbilled scans billable, turning untracked hardware usage into a licensed product and eliminating manual revenue leakage for Geospace-HBD.
