R&D
R&D
AUTHOR’s research division is key to the company’s operations and consists of several subdivisions, each specializing in specific issues.
Element base research
This subdivision is engaged in collecting data and researching the capabilities of modern automotive components, as well as seeking out reliable suppliers to ensure the use of the latest technological advances when creating high-quality advanced products.
Vehicle research and testing
This subdivision is in charge of researching new vehicle configurations and analyzing their capabilities in order to subsequently better adapt the company’s products and solutions to the latest car models.
Product development
This key subdivision consists of two teams: developers of hardware and software products (mobile applications and server solutions). Research into the element base and study of the configuration of new vehicles is carried out and subsequently used in product design. Based on the obtained data, the development team modifies existing products or creates brand-new integrated solutions in the field of security and ease of use.
Product testing
The product testing department plays a critical role in ensuring product quality and dependability. The two-stage testing system includes laboratory and road tests. These procedures guarantee that the company's products meet the highest security and dependability standards.

Production
Production
The production unit is part and parcel of AUTHOR’s research and production complex. The company’s production capabilities are secured by a flexible system of interaction between its in-house and subcontracted production. This allows for effective oversight and management of production processes to ensure the high quality of our products. A multi-stage quality control system where components are checked both separately and as part of the finished product is a vital element of the production workflow, minimizing the occurrence of defects in finished products.
The production process at AUTHOR spans several stages: production of printed circuit boards, assembly of all components, software installation, software and hardware testing, quality control, packaging and warehousing.
The company pays close attention to the selection of reliable suppliers throughout all of the production stages and works only with top-notch manufacturers of electronic equipment and components. This is how we make sure that AUTHOR products meet the needs of our affiliates and users.

Industrial design
Industrial design
Following the principles of industrial design is fundamental in creating the company’s products. This ensures highly ergonomic results. AUTHOR’s approach to industrial design includes the following:
Terms of use compliance
Products are created factoring in the conditions of their operation by end-users in real-world conditions. This process includes analyzing various operational scenarios and developing packaging to make our products functional and intuitive.
Ergonomics
Our devices are designed with human factors in mind for maximum user comfort. All devices that are used directly by the client, such as the TS-100 tester or 2.0 keyfob, are designed with this in mind.
Selection of materials
The selection of materials is carefully considered to suit the conditions of use of the devices and ensure their durability and reliability. Most of the devices produced by AUTHOR feature discreet installation: they may be deployed in various parts of the vehicle, including in places exposed to temperature changes, vibration, etc. Therefore, when developing our products, we use only very robust materials that can withstand harsh conditions.
User experience research
Research into user experience is an important element of industrial design at AUTHOR. We collect and analyze information from end users and affiliates and implement the findings in brand-new designs and to improve existing products.

SAAS/API integration
SAAS/API integration
The ability to integrate AUTHOR software and services into third-party business projects through SaaS (Software as a Service) and API (Application Programming Interface) opens up vast prospects for development and cooperation with our company. Vigorous efforts on this front allow us to expand our audience and offer modern business solutions.
There are two possible interaction options:
- Customization of products for the user – the ability to adapt software products to our affiliates’ specific requirements and specifications and to optimize them for end-users (for example, the Author Connect app, an online monitoring system).
- Introduction of additional features – the ability to integrate product functionality into affiliates’ solutions, for example, the remote control and car tracking features. Such changes significantly increase their competitiveness.
Providing partners with an API simplifies integration, allowing them to effectively use our products’ functionality within their solutions, significantly expanding their capabilities. Collaborative development of solutions with our partners facilitates the fluid sharing of knowledge and expertise. This allows us to create innovative, highly sought-after products. With the focus on flexibility and scalability, AUTHOR is able to easily adapt its products to suit a variety of business tasks, promptly respond to our customers’ diverse needs and make its products a key element of our affiliates’ business strategy.
