Helvetia creates mitipi to prevent break-ins Helvetia lacks expertise in user experience design, software engineering, and product development Zühlke assists in realizing the ideas, built prototypes out of existing components, and manufactured mockups on their in-house 3D printer Every 3 minutes, a home is burgled somewhere in Europe. Helvetia created mitipi to prevent break-ins. The virtual resident imitates its owner's habits and thus deters burglars. Digital burglary prevention Breaking and entering is an ever-recurring issue in the insurance industry. By interviewing burglary victims, Helvetia concluded that it is possible to prevent burglaries with digital technologies. The innovation managers at the insurance company collated initial information on customers’ requirements and found clients willing to pay for the product. However, Helvetia lacked the expertise in user experience design, software engineering, and product development. ' Thanks to Zühlke's experts, our idea was quickly transformed into a viable concept.
