About Tiel

Technology built by people who understand business.

Tiel was born from the journey of Dr. Ayrton Santos de Queiroz, built in classrooms, business incubators and inside real companies. That is why we speak your business language: processes, numbers, team and customers.

What drives Tiel

Every opportunity is born from a need.

Ayrton repeated this to his students for years. Today it is how Tiel works: first your business need, then the technology.

The story

Why Tiel sees what other tech companies miss.

A whole career studying entrepreneurs, guiding business plans and training managers. That background goes into every project.

Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil
In the founder's words
14and 16

Between the forest and the city

Our first TV arrived when I was 14, my first computer at 16. I grew up playing in the street with almost no technology around, and that machine fascinated me right away: I wanted to understand what was inside it.

turning point

A hospital line changed everything

I had an accident and saw my mother crying in a hospital line, with very few resources. That is when I decided to be a better son. I became a different student and started helping classmates who struggled.

20years old

My first class

I started teaching technical courses. I grew up watching my parents teach at church, and my sister became a teacher. From them I inherited my belief in people.

22years old

University professor

Always one step further: understanding why someone was not learning. Looking for the root cause became the way I work.

24years old

Leading academic programs

I started leading faculty, students and projects. I supervised more than 100 research projects and helped create more than 50 business plans. Research in entrepreneurship and innovation became the core of my career.

PhD

300 entrepreneurs studied

The research confirmed what Saras Sarasvathy showed: good entrepreneurs start with what they have in hand. When you have little, you have to be creative. I know that well.

Today

Tiel

The way I found to help more people, at scale, with technology that gives time back so business owners can have a better quality of life.

Effort was never the problem.Management was.

She was one of the smartest entrepreneurs I ever worked with. Customers loved her, she had a good idea and a full calendar.

But when the workday ended, a second one began: answering messages, checking orders, paying suppliers, trying to figure out where the money had gone. All in her head. All at the same time.

One day, the numbers did not add up. The next month, neither did they.

She closed her doors. Not for lack of talent or effort. What was missing was a structure strong enough to hold the dream while it grew.

I saw this story repeat itself many times. And what the market offered were off-the-shelf systems, the same for everyone.

1 Samuel 17

Saul's armor did not fit David.

Before facing Goliath, young David was given the king's armor, the best in the kingdom. He put it on, tried to walk and took it off: it was not his. He won with what he knew how to use, a sling and five stones.

Technology works the same way. A system that worked for another company may be excellent, but it was made for someone else. At Tiel, the solution comes from what your business already has and what it needs to grow.

Tiel exists so that stories like hers can have a different ending.

Why Tiel?

It comes from cockatiel. In the photo are the founder's three cockatiels, who inspired the brand. The three feathers rising from the "t" are their crest, raised when they are curious and alert.

That is how we look at every project.

"My dream is simple: a few years from now, to hear a client say that Tiel changed their life. That they gained time, kept the dream of running their own business alive and watched it grow."
