Ziik.io

Ziik is reinventing the intranet for the people who don't sit at a desk. We're the best-of-breed internal communication and information-sharing platform that frontline teams actually open, built for the 80% of the workforce that traditional intranets forget. From a single app, employees stay connected to their company, their colleagues and everything they need to do their job well. The results speak for themselves: 80% activation after the first month, and usage that more than doubles over the first year. Today Ziik powers communication for local heroes and global brands alike, including McDonald's, Sport24, Bastard Burgers, DFDS and Fleggaard, across retail, hospitality, transport, manufacturing and more, in eight languages and counting. We're a Copenhagen company growing fast across the Nordics and Europe. Ziik is a dense team of skilled people, each with real ownership of their work and the freedom to do it their way. We're profitable and built to last, not chasing the next round but compounding quietly year after year. We'd rather grow something that's still here in ten years than burn bright and disappear. We play the long game. Come build the platform the frontline deserves.

Boardway

Boardway is building an AI-powered board recruitment platform that helps companies find and hire the right board members and advisors. Our secret sauce combines AI matching, board analytics, and a vetted talent network to make board hiring faster, smarter, and more diverse. Finding qualified board members is still largely driven by personal networks and referrals, making the process slow, biased, and inefficient. Companies often struggle to identify candidates with the right expertise, while experienced professionals miss opportunities because they’re outside traditional networks. Boardway uses AI to match companies with board and advisory talent based on skills, industry experience, governance expertise, and company needs. Our platform streamlines sourcing, evaluation, and hiring through a data-driven recruitment workflow. We started Boardway because we saw how outdated and exclusive board recruitment remains. We believe better access to qualified board talent leads to stronger governance, better decisions, and ultimately better companies.

Defend Denmark

Defend Denmark er Danmarks første og eneste lokale bug bounty platform. Vi forbinder danske etiske hackere med danske virksomheder, så sårbarheder bliver opdaget og lukket inden de udvikler sig til reelle trusler. På platformen kan etiske hackere lede efter sikkerhedshuller hos vores kunder. Finder en hacker en reel sårbarhed, udbetaler kunden en dusør. Det gør it-sikkerhed resultatorienteret frem for tidsorienteret, som ellers er normen i konsulentverdenen. Målet er at få flere danske virksomheder til at tage bug bounty modellen til sig som et aktivt værktøj i deres sikkerhedsarbejde. Defend Denmark er søstervirksomhed til islandske Defend Iceland. Vi er stadig tidligt i opbygningen af virksomheden og kommende medarbejdere får reel indflydelse på de praktiske rammer, herunder kontorplacering og daglige arbejdsgange.

Regulars

Most loyalty programs are slow, generic, confusing, and hard to manage. Rewards often take too long to earn, feel irrelevant or low in value, and come with unclear rules. Say goodbye to paper cards, app fatigue, and loyalty clutter. We're changing loyalty with personal memberships in Apple & Google Wallet.

Tapp

Tapp is developing a software-only POS suite—tap-on-phone payments, eshop self-order, Native AI data platforms, and AI-assisted menu/setup - to help small UK service businesses ditch expensive hardware POS, solve slow service and rising operating costs, and stay compliant by default, powered by our ultra-fast UX, AI onboarding, leading AI features, and embedded payments. Independent cafés, massage parlors, and any other service spots are squeezed by hardware terminals, clunky back-office flows, and staffing shortages—which translates to slower turnover, longer queues, and lost revenue. Operators also face VAT/receipt/tips complexity and card-data obligations that traditional POS doesn’t simplify. The market is crowded, but legacy and “one-size-fits-all” tools still mean slow UI, multi-minute setup, and rigid pricing. Our analysis of UK-relevant providers shows many still require dedicated hardware or fragmented QR solutions—creating cost, training, and integration friction for small teams. Whilst providing insights on all the data collected, without the user having to ask. Tapp replaces boxes and paper with a phone-first POS: - Tap-to-Pay on iPhone & Android: take contactless cards/Wallets directly on staff or owner smartphones—no reader required. Fully productised in our “Staff” flow. - QR self-order, eshop & pay: guests scan, order, tip, and receive receipts digitally; staff stay focused on giving the best service, not card machines. - AI onboarding & menu import: snap a menu or upload a file; Tapp auto-parses categories/items, generates a store description, and lets owners tweak with guardrails (VAT, pricing, tags, duration). - Built-in compliance for UK SMBs: support for e-receipts, VAT invoice scenarios, and transparent tip/service handling—plus card-data best-practice via our payments stack. - Embedded payments on Adyen: unified acquiring, wallet rails, refunds/chargebacks, payouts, and potential embedded finance/share—with clear IC++ economics and SoftPOS fees. - Elite performance: our internal tests show UX runs 2.7× faster LCP and 3.3× less blocking than a leading competitor—keeping staff in “flow” during rush. Why this wins: zero hardware CAPEX, minutes-not-weeks deployment, faster service cycles, and fewer receipt/VAT/tips headaches—all in a single app the team already knows how to use (their phone). Feature depth is production-ready across signup/KYC, menu, staff, orders, payout views, and refunds per our shipped user stories. Whilst (soon) providing industry-breaking intelligence to make the small merchants play in the big leagues. We started Tapp after watching small venues spend too much on terminals and too long wrestling slow software—only to still miss orders at peak. We dug into the UK compliance tangle (VAT, receipts, tips) and saw a chance to bake the rules into the workflow, not bolt them on. Then we validated the experience with hard performance data and a best-in-class payments partner so owners can serve more customers with less kit and less stress. That’s why we’re doing this: give time back to small operators with a POS that is fast, compliant, and delightfully simple.
