Full transparency: Elevator Trade News is published by Intent Mesh LLC, founded by an active IUEC elevator constructor who turns wrenches for KONE by day. Intent Mesh also builds PullSheet, an AI diagnostics platform for elevator technicians. None of this influences what we cover or how we cover it. We report for the trade, not for any employer or product.
