In Tally, we are building an AI-powered financial reporting assistant that makes it effortless for businesses to access and understand their own financial data. We are solving a core problem in finance: companies often have the data, but it’s locked behind fragmented systems, complex reports, and manual processes that make it slow and difficult to turn numbers into clear decisions. Getting answers to basic questions—what’s driving performance, what changed, what needs attention—too often requires spreadsheets, specialists, and time most teams don’t have. Tally acts as an assisting number brain: it understands financial data, translates it into simple insights, and helps businesses work smarter and faster. We’re building the future of financial services around three principles—credibility (trust, transparency, and integrity), security (full control of data protection), and simplicity (reducing complexity so financial reporting is easy to attain and act on).

Silicon Valhalla is a Nordic tech intelligence hub that maps startups, founders, investors, and market signals across the Nordic region, with a particular emphasis on AI, SaaS, and frontier innovation. It exists to make the “Silicon Valhalla” ecosystem - Nordic tech’s answer to Silicon Valley - more visible, navigable, and investable for founders, operators, and capital. The platform combines a curated startup directory, an events calendar, and ecosystem insights into a single, neutral entry point for Nordic tech. Startups and scaleups get structured profiles highlighting what they do, where they are based, which sector they play in, and how to reach them, while investors and partners can quickly scan emerging companies across AI, climate, fintech, deep tech, and more. A continuously updated view of companies and activity aims to surface momentum early, so users can spot new categories, breakout teams, and upcoming fundraising stories before they hit the mainstream. Silicon Valhalla is designed to be independent and ecosystem-first rather than a job board or paywalled database. The service is currently free to use, making discovery accessible while opening the door for future premium offerings such as featured profiles, highlighted events, and deeper signal products for investors and corporates. In short, Silicon Valhalla is building the default map and narrative for Nordic tech: a living overview of the startups, talent, and ideas turning the region into one of the most dynamic innovation hubs in Europe.

The Problem Most workplaces struggle with high sick leave — and the root causes are rarely acute injuries or illness. They are lifestyle-driven issues: • fatigue and low energy • stress and mental strain • poor sleep • musculoskeletal pain • unhealthy habits • lack of support These problems build up over time, and employees try to handle them alone. But people don’t change their health on their own — and employers don’t have the tools or competency to help them. The result? High sick leave costs, reduced productivity, and employees who are stuck in patterns they can’t break. Why it matters Sick leave is one of the biggest hidden costs in business. A single employee on sick leave costs on average 65 200 kr per year — and 20% of employees account for 80% of the total. Most of these cases are preventable with the right support. At the same time, people want help: 85% prefer guidance from a qualified professional rather than trying to solve health challenges alone. ABEL’s Role ABEL solves this gap. We connect employees with qualified health coaches who follow them closely over time — mentally, physically, and socially. Through structured guidance and our digital platform, we help people make sustainable lifestyle changes that reduce sick leave and increase wellbeing. The impact: Employees get better health. Companies save money. Society reduces the burden of preventable illness.
