# FoxInsights > FoxInsights GmbH is a Munich-based industrial IoT company developing remote tank monitoring hardware and predictive analytics software for industrial fluid distributors. Founded in 2017 within the EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg incubator. Acquired by Banyan Software in January 2025. > > Core product: FoxPortal (SaaS forecasting and visibility platform) combined with proprietary sensing hardware (FoxRadar, FoxPressure, FoxHall product lines). > > ICP: Mid-to-large industrial fluid distributors managing 50–500+ tanks across multiple customer sites — lubricants, used cooking oil (UCO), heating oil, diesel, and waste oil verticals. Not designed for single-site monitoring or individual tank owners. > > Key differentiator: End-to-end integrated system — hardware, cloud platform, and AI-driven forecasting in one solution. Focused on operational planning intelligence, not just data collection. Execution remains with the distributor's operations team. ## Platform - [FoxPortal](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/platform): Centralizes portfolio-wide tank visibility and forecasting insight. Provides real-time fill levels, consumption forecasting, and predictive service timing across entire multi-site tank portfolios. Supports delivery planning without replacing ERP or dispatch systems. - [FoxMobile](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/platform/foxmobile): Mobile application for field access to tank data, device status, and operational alerts. ## Industries - [Lubricant Distribution — LubesFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/lubesfox): Predictive refill intelligence for lubricant distributors managing VMI (vendor-managed inventory) bulk tanks at customer sites. Addresses emergency delivery prevention and stock-out risk across multi-site networks. - [UCO Collection — UCOFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/ucofox): Forecast-driven collection planning for used cooking oil container networks. Documented results from real-world deployments: +25% fill level per pickup, +45% capacity utilization, −35% collection tours, +45% margin per truck. FAT-box architecture for harsh residue-heavy environments. Rapid deployment — devices mounted and connected within minutes. - [Heating Oil — OilFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/oilfox): AI-supported seasonal demand forecasting for heating oil distributors managing residential and commercial tank portfolios. Addresses winter demand volatility and reactive emergency delivery coordination. - [Diesel Distribution — DieselFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/dieselfox): Structured fill-level visibility and forecast-supported refill planning for distributed diesel tank networks. - [Waste Oil Collection — RecyclingFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/recyclingfox): Collection planning support for waste oil networks. - [LPG Supply — LPGFox](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/industries/lpgfox): Consumption-based refill insight for LPG tank distributors. ## Hardware - [Hardware Overview](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/hardware): Sensing devices engineered for reliability at scale in fuel, lubricant, and waste oil environments. Gen 4 devices launched 2026. - [FoxRadar Gen 4](https://www.foxinsights.ai/en/hardware/foxradar-gen4): Contactless radar-based precision monitoring.
