We do this through systematic data aggregation, pattern recognition, and machine-generated insight extraction. No editorial bias. No funding announcement republishing. No vanity metrics.

Nume

We at Nume are on a mission to build the world’s first AI CFO for founders – while also building Europe’s next unicorn. We believe in a (very near) future in which AI empowers us all to be successful founders and bring our unique ideas to life, but today financial fear and frustration hold founders back from finding success – or even getting started. Nume is the proactive, reliable, supportive thought partner every founder needs to shoulder their financial anxiety and help make every financial decision with confidence. About Nume & Scaleup Finance Founded in 2021 by 6 serial entrepreneurs, we’ve managed to scale our unique CFO-as-a-Service (tech+service solution) to more than €5m ARR and raising Denmark’s biggest seed round in the process. Today we are 60 people spread across our offices in Copenhagen, London and remote. We’ve spent the last four years working closely with hundreds of startups and scaleups as their trusted financial partner, delivering CFO-as-a-Service through our SaaS financial management platform and real CFOs. We’ve built deep expertise in what founders struggle with: not just understanding their numbers, but acting on them with clarity and confidence. That journey led us to create Nume, the world’s first AI CFO. Nume is currently in private beta and we are gearing up for a major public launch in August that aims to set a new benchmark for AI product rollouts Built on years of real-world financial experience, Nume combines advanced AI with financial intelligence to bring the power of a CFO to every founder’s fingertips. From our roots as a CFO-as-a-Service business to our transition into an AI-first company, our mission has stayed the same: to help founders and small companies never worry about finance again. We’re backed by top-tier investors, featured on Sifted’s list of Europe’s fastest-growing startups, and scaling fast. If you want to shape the future of financial decision-making, this is the place.

Solutos

Solutos is a Finnish based healthcare company enabling radical reform in social and health services. We have developed PIRKKO®, a family-oriented cloud service. PIRKKO® is the first and, as far as is known, Finland’s only resource planning solution that is suitable for psychosocial services and helps to take over the entity in a multi-professional manner. Our ’guaranted reform concept’ and PIRKKO® solution provides support to standardized methodology and proactive resource planning enabling advanced analytics. Solutos employs around 40 people. Find out more at www.solutos.fi/en  Solutos is a Finnish company and partner for change with a passion for wellbeing. We offer mainly psychiatric services. The company was founded on unwavering passion for reforming Finnish healthcare to conform to evidence-based care practices. There are now about 40 of us at Solutos and we operate across Finland.Mental health patients in Finland seldom receive evidence-based treatment and treatment typically continues for a very long time. People’s wellbeing would improve if mental health and substance abuse services as well as services for families were reorganized. To achieve this change, we have developed ‘reform guarantee’ -model and PIRKKO®, a family-based guidance system. Solutos helps our clients coordinate all their psychosocial services with PIRKKO®, our analyzing services and support for clinical change management. PIRKKO® helps to identify patient visits that will likely have little effect on the treatment results. When PIRKKO® is combined with firm clinical management, service visits can be reduced by as much as 30 percent and the effectiveness of the treatment can be improved. In full use, PIRKKO® will become a hub where the patient, their family and the care workers will share relevant information. It brings together both regional organizations and the future social services and health care centers as well as different NGOs and private companies.Solutos was founded in 2012 by Executive Vice President, M.Sc. (Tech) Kalle Horjamo, senior psychiatrist Veijo Nevalainen and professor of psychiatry Jyrki Korkeila.

All Gravy

All Gravy: All the people stuff in one employee app - built for hospitality Hospitality is one of the largest employment sectors in Europe. It's also one of the most chaotic to operate. The average multi-site restaurant group or hotel brand manages hundreds of hourly workers across dozens of locations - none of whom sit at a desk, have a work email, or receive information through the same channel twice. The result is predictable. New starters show up on day one not knowing what to do. Training happens inconsistently, or not at all. Managers spend half their day answering the same questions on repeat. Communication happens in WhatsApp groups that the business doesn't own, can't audit, and can't control. Staff churn - already the highest of any industry, averaging 75% annually - gets worse. And operators have no way of knowing why. The tools that exist to solve this were built for office workers. They assume laptops, corporate email, and people who sit still. Hospitality doesn't work like that. All Gravy is the fix. We're a communications and learning app built specifically for multi-site hospitality operators - restaurant groups, hotel brands, contract caterers, quick-service chains. Our customers typically manage between 200 and 1,000 staff across multiple locations in the UK, Scandinavia, and Germany. The product gives operators one place to run everything people-related: Staff communications - a branded, structured feed that works like social media. Managers post to the right people by location, role, or team. Employees are notified. Everything is documented. No more WhatsApp chaos. Onboarding journeys - automated, role-specific sequences that start the moment a new hire is added to the system. They arrive on day one prepared, connected to the brand, and knowing what's expected of them. Training and learning - a full LMS designed for deskless workers, supporting both digital courses and in-person sessions, with attendance tracking, completion records, and automated reminders built in. Digital handbooks - a living, searchable library that employees access from their phone. Update once, everyone sees it instantly. No more outdated PDFs or laminated binders no one reads. AI assistant - trained on the operator's own content, not the internet. Employees get instant, accurate answers to questions about policies, procedures, and their role. Managers stop answering the same things over and over. The employee experience looks and feels like a social media app - because that's what people actually use. Adoption is high because the product meets people where they already are. The admin side is a web dashboard where operators build and manage everything centrally, with full visibility into engagement, training completion, onboarding progress, and team sentiment across every location. The problem is big. There are roughly 90 million deskless workers in Europe. Hospitality alone employs millions, with vacancy and churn rates that cost the sector billions in lost revenue every year. The tools available to operators haven't kept up with what the problem actually requires. The opportunity is clear. Operators who invest in their people's experience - making them feel informed, connected, and supported from day one - see measurably lower turnover, better training compliance, and lower management overhead. All Gravy makes that investment easy, scalable, and consistent across every location in a business. We've raised €5.8M+ to date, backed by Moonfire Ventures, Scale Capital, and a syndicate of angels including senior operators and investors from Google, Deliveroo, and Peakon. Our customers include some of the largest hospitality operators in Northern Europe. We're building the operating layer for the front-line hospitality workforce - the infrastructure that makes it possible to run a great team at scale, not just at one site, but across all of them.
