Something is wrong with how we meet new people. Meeting new people is supposed to be exciting, spontaneous and fun. Yet, datings apps have turned it into a monotonous routine. All dating apps claim to be different, but they are essentially all a speed dating game played in solo mode with a pool of strangers. It’s a game of swipe, match and “hey, what’s up” chats that rarely lead anywhere. Sometimes you miraculously get past the boring smalltalk, dodge the ghosting and actually meet! But more often than not, the date you “won” feels like a boring coffee interview. We deserve better than that. That’s why we are creating a different experience of meeting new people. What if instead of playing this speed dating game by yourself, you are playing together with your friends. Instead of the coffee date interview, it’s more like going to a spontaneous party with your close friends and bumping into a crush. If we can bring our vision for this social network to life, a spontaneous adventure of meeting new people with your friends will always be just a few clicks away.

We are building a patented security and authentication solution designed to protect products against fraud, counterfeiting, and misuse — across industries, not only textiles. Many industries struggle with the same core problems: • Fraudulent returns • Counterfeit products • Lack of reliable product authentication • High manual control and verification costs Existing solutions are often expensive, complex, or limited to specific product types. Our solution is a patent-protected security seal that can be applied to any physical product with a surface, not just garments. It enables fast and reliable authentication, prevents product tampering, and creates traceability throughout the product’s lifecycle. The technology is simple, scalable, and does not require changes to existing logistics or IT systems. It can be used in fashion, electronics, luxury goods, consumer products, and other industries where product authenticity and return control matter. We hold a granted European patent covering 39 countries, and the business is designed to scale globally through a licensing model. This allows partners to operate locally while we retain full ownership of the intellectual property. Our mission is to make product authentication and fraud prevention simple, scalable, and commercially viable, helping brands protect both revenue and trust.

Cliarly is an ambitious startup rethinking the way we write, read, and understand text – powered by AI and driven by accessibility as a core value. We build intelligent tools that integrate directly into where you already work – Word, Outlook, your browser, and more. Our AI proofreader, Cliarly Corrected, offers real-time professional feedback without compromising your personal voice. And with our text-to-speech tool, even the heaviest PDFs and academic texts become fluid audiobooks – thoughtfully formatted and read aloud with natural-sounding voices. For students, that means clearer writing and faster reading. For companies, it means stronger internal and external communication. And for anyone who has ever felt left behind, it means language that is more accessible and inclusive. With Cliarly, it’s not you who has to adapt to the technology – it’s the technology that works for you. We’re doing this because we know how much it matters to be understood. For us, it’s not just about text and speech – it’s about equal access to knowledge, opportunity, and community. Based in the Copenhagen startup ecosystem, we share our office with other entrepreneurs who are passionate about making a difference. And we’re always looking for talented people who – like us – want to use technology to solve real problems for real people. 👉 Ready to help change the way we communicate?

We build our services around them. We believe that you deserve more power from your money.
