Cleenki

Cleenki is building an AI-native marketplace for home cleaning to help busy households in Sweden book trusted, recurring cleaning in seconds, while giving independent cleaners fair pay and the tools to build a stable business. Our secret sauce: by treating cleaners well and letting them work for themselves, we turn motivated cleaners into loyal, long-term customer relationships that traditional agencies cannot match. The cleaning industry is built on a broken chain. Traditional cleaning companies pay low wages and treat cleaners poorly, which kills motivation. Unmotivated, underpaid cleaners churn constantly, which makes it hard for customers to find a reliable local cleaner and build a long-term relationship. The result is a poor customer experience across the entire industry: no-shows, inconsistent quality, and constant turnover on both sides of a market that should be built on trust and recurring stability. This affects almost every busy household in Sweden. With RUT making professional cleaning affordable for a large share of the population, demand is huge, yet the experience for both customers and the people doing the actual work has barely improved in decades. Cleenki is a marketplace that matches households with vetted independent cleaners and turns one-off jobs into recurring relationships. Customers book in minutes, pay securely by card, and keep the same cleaner over time. Our edge is the cleaners themselves. On Cleenki, cleaners work for themselves or run small cleaning businesses, so they genuinely care about their customers and do the little extra every single time. We are deeply focused on cleaner wellbeing, because we know that motivated, fairly treated cleaners are what create happy, loyal customers. We take a cut of each booking, and over time we are building the operating system underneath the marketplace: automated scheduling, payments, subscriptions, and the daily operations a cleaning business needs to run, so any cleaner or small company can eventually run their entire business on Cleenki. We are live and growing steadily, with over 100 paying recurring customers and 10 to 25 one-off bookings per month. The cleaning industry is outdated. Customers demand convenience, cleaners demand fairness, and sustainability matters more than ever. Cleenki delivers all three at exactly the right moment. We start in Stockholm, then expand across Sweden, the Nordics, and beyond. Before Cleenki, I started a traditional cleaning company (Cleanest Sweden AB). That is where I really got to know the industry from the inside. I interviewed and worked with dozens of cleaners, and over and over I heard the same two patterns. The first was unfair treatment: low pay, stressful schedules, and managers who simply did not care about them as people. The second was a dream. Almost every cleaner I spoke to wanted the same thing: to work for themselves, on their own terms. That is what fired the spark. I realized the cleaning industry is broken in a way that hurts everyone at once. Cleaners carry the whole business on their backs but are treated as disposable, and customers suffer the consequences through constant turnover and unreliable service. Cleenki is my way of fixing both sides at the same time: giving cleaners the independence, fair pay, and recurring income they dream of, and giving households cleaners who actually care. This is not just a booking app to me. It is a mission to give an overlooked workforce ownership over their working lives.

Free To Use

Free To Use is a royalty-free music platform that gives content creators high-quality background music for free, without the copyright risks that come with most "free" music online. The problem: every creator who publishes video or audio needs music, but the safe options are a mess. Most "free" libraries simply host tracks uploaded by producers who keep the rights, so a song can be pulled later or hit with a copyright claim that demonetizes or blocks the creator's video. Licensing terms are buried in legalese and often restricted by platform or region. And a growing share of libraries are filling up with AI-generated music that can't be properly copyrighted or protected. The result: creators waste time, lose ad revenue to false claims, and never quite know if the music in their video is safe. Our solution: Free To Use owns every track in its catalogue outright. Artists transfer the exclusive rights to us, so the music stays free forever, the terms stay stable, and we can resolve false copyright claims directly on a creator's behalf. Every track is made by a real human artist, never AI, and reviewed and curated by hand for consistent quality. Creators browse by mood and genre, download unlimited tracks with no sign-up, and publish safely across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch and podcasts. Why we built it: we are a team of content creators who felt this pain ourselves. Free use comes with a simple attribution; we fund the platform through affordable Personal and Commercial subscriptions plus single-track Pro and Broadcast licences, which keeps the core library free for everyone. Founded in 2016 and based in Denmark, Free To Use is building the music layer for the creator economy: music creators can actually trust.

AnankeLabs

AnankeLabs is developing KAIROS Substrate, a real-time deterministic safety engine, to help organizations operating AI, cybersecurity, and autonomous systems solve structural exposure to novel, zero-day threats with a proactive physics engine that mathematically calculates exact breaking points before execution. We are tackling the fundamental failure of reactive, probabilistic defenses. Today, AI, cybersecurity, and robotics rely on known historical data—like threat signatures or mapped environments—to predict safety. This creates a permanent, widespread synchronization lag across modern infrastructure, leaving systems structurally exposed to novel, zero-day catastrophes and unpredictable "distribution shifts." This problem deeply affects operators across multiple high-stakes domains: AI Safety: Operators rely on post-generation statistical classifiers, forcing them to anticipate every adversarial path. This leaves systems highly exposed between vulnerability discovery and classifier updates. Cybersecurity: Current defenses depend on pattern-matching that requires a known signature. This creates a dangerous reality where defenders are forced to absorb the initial zero-day breach just to extract the signature needed to stop future attacks. Robotics: Systems use neural policies optimized for statistical averages. When encountering novel environments, they lack a physical safety substrate, resulting in hardware executing a "software hallucination at full mechanical torque" and causing kinetic collisions. AnankeLabs is creating an entirely new category of safety by shifting away from guessing if an action is safe based on past data, and moving toward a deterministic engine built on first principles. We built KAIROS Substrate, a real-time safety physics engine that acts as an automatic brake. Instead of relying on pattern-matching, it evaluates actions before execution, instantly detecting and blocking structurally unsound actions across AI, cyber, and robotics by calculating exact mathematical breaking points. Crucially, we made auditability a structural property of the engine itself. Because KAIROS is perfectly deterministic (identical inputs produce identical outputs at ε=10⁻⁶), it automatically generates an immutable, byte-identically replayable trace of every gate decision as a side effect. This eliminates subjective incident reporting and natively satisfies strict regulatory regimes like the EU AI Act, Machinery Regulation 2023/1230, DORA, and NIS2. The spark that fired our mission was the realization that relying on statistics to secure critical infrastructure is a dead-end. Watching security teams permanently synchronize their defenses to yesterday's attack surface highlighted an unacceptable structural flaw in modern technology. We saw the same unacceptable risks in autonomous systems, where a simple distribution shift could cause heavy machinery to hallucinate and collide with its environment. We realized that true safety couldn't be bolted on as an afterthought or solved with better guesswork; it had to be deterministic and mathematical. We set out to build AnankeLabs because organizations deserve a proactive safeguard that prevents failures from unseen threats from the ground up, rather than just mitigating the damage after the fact.

Rune Raahauge Online Coaching is a tailored training and lifestyle universe that helps busy adults achieve lasting results without sacrificing life’s pleasures. We combine evidence-based training, habit change, and close personal support so our clients can enjoy a healthier life – physically, mentally, and socially. Many adults with careers, families, and active social lives struggle to prioritize their health. They jump from one quick-fix solution to another – diets, 30-day challenges, random workout programs – without achieving results that last. The problem is widespread: thousands experience stress, low energy, poor fitness, and weight gain, yet lack the structure, motivation, and solutions that fit their reality. We help break that cycle and create a sustainable lifestyle. We offer a 100% personalized online program where clients get: • A tailored training plan that fits their time, level, and goals. • A simple nutrition structure that works with their preferences and social life. • Ongoing support through chat, video, and check-ins, so they’re never left on their own. • A focus on habit change and mental strength, ensuring results that last a lifetime. Our method makes training and nutrition a tool to live better – not a punishment. Our secret sauce is the combination of human connection, simple systems, and a realistic approach that makes health achievable for ordinary people living extraordinarily busy lives. We started because, after more than 30 years in the industry as personal trainers, we’ve seen far too many people stall – not because they lack willpower, but because they lack the right plan and the right support. After working face-to-face with hundreds of clients, we saw a clear pattern: people don’t need yet another program; they need someone who understands their daily life and can help them navigate it. We wanted to create a solution that removes the confusion, makes health manageable, and gives people control over both body and mind – without forcing them to give up everything that makes life enjoyable.
