Yeah, hawking things is a bit of a new world to me. Good timing for the question, though. We've been collecting testimonials just last week and have a brands block for the website ready to go, pending one more approval. So that's coming RSN.

Some firms who said we can point to their usage of it (these are all JVM based):

- HEBI Robotics. They make robot kits and ship apps that allow you to control them with Conveyor.

- GoToTags. They make NFC tags and just launched an app to work with them.

- IonSpin. "mementō is a simple and modern file management solution". They aren't fully launched yet I think.

- AdCentral. An app for managing various kinds of ad campaigns in physical stores (if I understood correctly).

There are others, that's just a subset of the ones we've asked for testimonials. There's also some open source projects that use it. So far there's definitely a theme of apps that do things with specialist hardware, which isn't a big surprise.

We also dogfood it for systemd managed servers, but that's kinda experimental. I'm still trying to figure out if there's anything useful to do there, like to go from a build.gradle to a set of pushed/updated servers in one step without Docker (or maybe with Docker). Like it'd make a linked standalone app, upload the files to the server(s), integrate it with systemd then start the apps. But maybe nobody would find that useful. Server ops is such a heavily invested-in space already.
