About Boinx Software

Boinx Software was founded in 1996 by brothers Achim and Oliver Breidenbach. They chose "Boinx" because they wanted a name that was artificial, young, hip, fun, pronounced the same in German and English and could also be a sound.

We make fun, easy to use and powerful applications for creative people.

Our main offices are situated in Puchheim, Germany, in sight of the Alps close to Munich – world-famous for the Octoberfest.
