Our story
Spinque originated at the Dutch National Research Centre in Computer Science and Mathematics (Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica) in Amsterdam. Arjen, Roberto and Wouter were doing research into ‘high-performance database engines’ and ‘information retrieval’ when they realized that combining both fields would create a complete new way of information access. The probabilistic graph database they subsequently developed, combines the key advantages of information retrieval and databases and so enables search design.

Nowadays, we operate from our office in the old factory-warehouse Hooghiemstra in Utrecht. The initial research idea has grown out to an industrial strength software product. The flexibility of our technology enables our clients to design search solutions to their problems and powers search engines that answer millions of queries per day.
