Vaskeladden is an AI-driven cleaning platform. We are not a cleaning agency with an app bolted on top - we build AI from the ground up, across pricing, customer acquisition, operations and support.
Founded in 2022 by two 18-year-olds who saw a fragmented, inefficient cleaning market and thought it could be done better with technology. In late 2025 Patrick Skjennum - co-founder and former CTO of the AI company Strise - joined as the third co-founder, and Vaskeladden was reborn as a technology company.
The market is huge and fragmented: around 10,000 cleaning agencies in Norway and 400,000 across Europe. Most are small operators with no commercial engine, brand or management. Vaskeladden consolidates them digitally - think Bolt or Foodora, but for cleaning. Customers get one point of contact, a customer portal and a quality guarantee. Partners get demand, brand and tooling. Our platform handles pricing, sales, onboarding, quality control and follow-up.
We move fast, we are AI-native in everything we do, and we build for scale. We are based in Oslo and expanding across Norway's biggest cities first.
