About Autori
Helping road maintenance organizations stay in control
For more than 35 years, Autori has worked alongside contractors, municipalities and road authorities to make road maintenance more connected, more efficient and easier to manage.
Everything we build starts with one question:
How can we help our customers stay in control?
Why We Exist
Built around road maintenance.
Autori wasn't created to build software. It was created to solve real road maintenance challenges.
Since 1988, we've worked closely with the people responsible for planning, maintaining and managing road networks. Those conversations continue to shape every product we develop today.
Because road maintenance isn't just about completing work. It's about knowing what needs to be done, understanding what has been done and having confidence in every decision that follows.
That's why we build connected software exclusively for road maintenance.
More than 35 years of continuous innovation
Road maintenance has changed dramatically over the past three decades. So have we.
As new technologies emerged and customer expectations evolved, Autori continuously developed new ways to help organizations collect better information, improve documentation and make smarter decisions.
Every milestone represents another step toward a more connected future for road maintenance.
1988
Founded in Finland
Autori was established to solve real-world road maintenance challenges through software and data-driven methods.
Early 1990s
Bringing Research into Practice
The first road maintenance planning system, developed through academic research, was adopted by the Finnish Road Administration, helping bring digital planning tools into everyday operations.2000s
Taking Technology to the Field
As mobile technology evolved, Autori introduced solutions that enabled field teams to collect and use data directly on-site, improving accuracy and reducing delays between fieldwork and decision-making.
2000s–2010s
Built Together with Customers
Over the years, our solutions evolved through close collaboration with road authorities, contractors, consultants, and maintenance professionals. Every improvement was shaped by real operational needs.

Continuing to Connect Road Maintenance
Autori will continue advancing connected road maintenance by bringing together operational products, visual road information and AI-powered intelligence – helping organizations make smarter decisions and stay in control.
Supporting more sustainable road maintenance
Better information helps organizations optimize maintenance activities, extend asset life, reduce unnecessary travel and make more efficient use of resources.
How We Help
A connected approach to road maintenance.
Road maintenance doesn't happen in isolated systems. Operational data, visual road information, artificial intelligence and business systems all need to work together. That's why Autori One connects them.
Customers can start with the products they need today and expand over time, knowing every product is designed to work together as one connected ecosystem. Because better information creates better decisions. And better decisions help organizations stay in control.
How We Work
Long-term partnerships create better software.
The best ideas don't come from a meeting room. They come from people managing roads every day.
Many of the capabilities in Autori today exist because customers challenged us to solve real operational problems. Their feedback has shaped our products for decades and continues to influence every new release. We're not simply delivering software. We're building the future of road maintenance together with our customers.
Security & Compliance
Built on trust. Protected by design.
Every day, our customers rely on Autori to manage operational information that supports critical road maintenance decisions.
Protecting that information is one of our highest priorities.
Security is embedded throughout our platforms, infrastructure and development processes. We continuously improve our practices to safeguard customer data, ensure reliable service availability and support GDPR compliance.
This allows our customers to focus on maintaining road networks – while we focus on protecting the information they depend on.
Looking Ahead
Road maintenance will continue to evolve. New technologies will emerge. Infrastructure will become increasingly connected. Expectations for efficiency, transparency and accountability will continue to grow.
Our focus remains the same.
To help road maintenance organizations understand what is happening, document what has been done and make confident decisions based on trusted information.
We'll continue listening to our customers, solving real operational challenges and building software that helps organizations stay in control. Because connected road maintenance isn't just where the industry is heading.
It's what we've been building toward for more than 35 years.

- Vision
- Mission
- Manifesto
To shape the future of connected road maintenance.
We envision a world where operational management, visual information, artificial intelligence and connected systems work together seamlessly—helping road maintenance organizations operate more efficiently, document with confidence and continually improve the way they maintain our roads.
Helping road maintenance organizations stay in control.
We develop connected technology that simplifies everyday operations, improves documentation and gives road maintenance professionals the confidence to make better decisions every day.
Better road maintenance starts with better decisions.
Every day, thousands of people work to keep our roads safe, accessible and functioning. They plan maintenance, inspect roads, respond to changing weather and document every action they take. It's demanding work. They deserve technology that makes it easier. That's why Autori exists.
We believe road maintenance organizations shouldn't have to work with disconnected systems, scattered information and outdated processes. We believe the people responsible for our roads should always have the information they need to make confident decisions. That's why we've spent more than three decades building software specifically for road maintenance. Not generic work management. Not generic asset management. Road maintenance.
We believe operational data, visual information, artificial intelligence and connected systems belong together—not in separate applications. When information flows freely, planning improves. Documentation becomes stronger. Field operations become more efficient. And better decisions become possible. Technology should support experts. Not replace them. Road maintenance will always depend on experienced people.
Our job is to give them better tools. Because every completed work order... Every inspection... Every road image... Every operational decision... Contributes to something much bigger. Safer roads.
