Vital Beats

We're building the future of digital health and we insist on having the best time together doing it. We expect high quality in our work as much as we take good care of each other. We make a software platform for remote care of heart patients with implanted devices. We combine software engineering with nordic design aesthetics to ensure meaningful products for our customers. This means we actively involve clinicians and patients in the design process. We're proud that hospitals use our platform daily, but we have much more we want to achieve.

Userlink

You invest significant resources every single day to bring visitors to your webshop. Unfortunately, the majority of them leave again without making a purchase because they cannot quickly find or get answers to exactly what they need. And that is a shame—especially when it can actually be solved relatively easily. At Userlink, we build your very own AI agent that is an expert in your specific products. This means your visitors can instantly get the answers they need, around the clock—even when your customer service is closed. But will my customers even want help from an AI agent? Yes. 73% of Danes do. In fact, most people prefer getting fast help from AI rather than waiting 3–5 minutes for a response from a human. Is using Userlink worth the investment? Of course, several parameters come into play here. However, our customers experience that, on average, 12% of those who chat with the bot also complete a purchase after they start using Userlink. To allow you to assess this yourself, you can try it completely free for 30 days. We set everything up for you, so the only thing you need to evaluate is whether it pays off or not. Are there other benefits to using Userlink? There are, of course, several advantages, but a significant one is that our customers experience, on average, 35% lower customer service costs because the AI agent handles many customer inquiries before they reach your support team.

Unioo

Unioo is building a digital compliance and board management platform to help financial institutions and voluntary associations handle complex regulatory reporting—simply, securely, and without friction. 1. What problem are we solving? Associations in Europe are required by law to submit complex KYC and AML documentation to their financial institutions. This process is often confusing, paper-based, and time-consuming—especially for small, volunteer-run associations. At the same time, banks are struggling to comply with increasingly strict regulations without overloading internal teams or alienating nonprofit customers. 2. How are we solving it? Unioo provides a secure, plug-and-play digital platform where associations can easily complete their mandatory bank reporting. At the same time, they gain access to a suite of free digital board tools—meeting management, task tracking, file sharing and more. Banks receive fully compliant data packages with no internal resource strain. Associations stay compliant while benefiting from better tools for managing their boards. 3. Why are we doing this? We started Unioo as volunteers ourselves. We saw how much time was wasted on outdated processes, and how legal changes (like AML) were turning volunteer work into a bureaucratic burden. Then we realized: we could help both associations and banks by offering one unified solution—tailored for the unique needs of volunteer boards and aligned with financial institutions' regulatory requirements. 4. Why join us? We’re a fast-growing Danish startup backed by strong investors, trusted by 25+ financial institutions, and used by thousands of associations. Our team is small but ambitious—and deeply motivated by the impact we make. If you’re excited about simplifying bureaucracy, building elegant solutions, and empowering civil society, we’d love to meet you.
