Bryte provides buildings owners with clean and profitable energy storage to turn power into profits. Solar installations create new opportunities for commercial and industrial building owners to save money and contribute to a cleaner environment. However, the size of a solar panel system can quickly be limited in size because of regulations where the cost of selling or managing surplus energy outweigh the benefits – unless the surplus is stored in batteries. Bryte uses proprietary flow battery technology to provide building owners with safe and affordable energy storage.

It combines continuous internet-scale monitoring, machine learning–driven analysis, and automated enforcement to protect brands at the speed of the internet. ❗ The Problem Brands today face a rapidly growing wave of online impersonation and fraud: - Fake websites and phishing pages steal customer data and trust - Scam stores divert revenue and damage brand reputation - Threats appear at massive scale (thousands of new domains daily) - Traditional solutions are too slow, manual, and expensive Existing approaches—legal disputes, analyst teams, and takedown processes—can take days to months, while attackers operate in minutes. 💡 The Solution Astra solves this by delivering end-to-end automated brand protection: - Continuous monitoring: Tracks domains, subdomains, DNS signals, and web content in real time - AI-powered detection: Identifies likely threats and prioritizes them automatically - Human-in-the-loop control: Users approve actions with one click - Instant enforcement: Enforcements are executed immediately after approval This reduces response time from days or weeks to seconds, preventing damage before it spreads. 🎯 Why Astra Exists Astra was built on a simple insight: “Brand threats move at internet speed—protection must move faster.” The company exists to replace outdated, reactive workflows with a scalable, automated system that: - Protects customer trust before harm occurs - Prevents revenue loss from fraudulent actors - Eliminates manual workload and high operational costs - Gives brands full visibility and control over enforcement

At ReBite, we’re developing a protein bar that makes it easier to choose something truly healthy. Many people are looking for snacks that are simple, natural, and actually good for them. But most protein bars on the market today are highly processed and don’t live up to that. Most current protein bars: - Have long and confusing ingredient lists - Contain artificial sweeteners, additives, and protein isolates - Are high in protein, but offer very little fibre or real food ingredients - Don’t leave people feeling like they’ve eaten something healthy ReBite is different. Our bar is: - Made with whole, natural ingredients - 45% made from upcycled side-streams from the food industry in Copenhagen - Free from sweeteners, preservatives, and other additives - Made without protein isolates—only protein from original raw ingredients - High in fibre (10g) and with only 8g sugar from natural sources ReBite is a cleaner, more honest alternative for people who want a snack that’s better for both their body and the planet.
