About Us 

At Develop Diverse, our vision is to normalize diversity through inclusive communication, enabling companies to create inclusive cultures and increase diversity in the workplace. We provide companies with a software platform that finds potentially biased language and suggests inclusive alternatives, along with the hard data to back up these recommendations. While we currently focus primarily on job ads, we aim to extend our platform to all types of text and all communication channels, for companies and people alike. Our customers include Amazon, Vestas and Maersk Tankers.  

We are innovative and fun people who are very open-minded and strive for growth! We are also an equal opportunity employer. Not only that, but celebrating diverse voices and perspectives is how we operate, so creating an inclusive workplace is our number one priority.

Working at
Develop Diverse

Our vision is to create equal opportunity in the workplace using tech. We do that by enabling companies to get rid of stereotypic language in job descriptions, employer branding material and other internal - and external communication material. The result is an increase in the number of qualified diverse applicants, a more inclusive culture and a more inclusive brand without the implicitly telling the story that you have to look or behave in a certain way to 'fit in'. Focusing on culture fit and having a company with a large homogeneous group is a thing of the past. To represent customers, society and get ahead competitors we need a diverse workforce and an inclusive work environment. We have built an AI-tool that spell-checks for non-inclusive language and proposes inclusive alternatives for companies to start changing the status-quo today. We have customers like Danske Bank, TDC and Vestas who all have seen a great increase in diverse applicants after using Develop Diverse. Join us today and have a real impact on the way Europe's largest brands work with inclusive communication!
