Laavu Performance Oy

Laavu is a Finland-based performance coaching company built for entrepreneurs, executives and key talent who want to lead with clarity, resilience and sustainable high performance. Our mission is to create a psychologically sustainable future, where taking care of your mind is as normal as taking care of your body. A world where going to a psychologist is as casual as having a personal trainer, where emotional skills are trained as proudly as biceps, and where psychological skills are seen as an essential foundation of success. Since our founding in 2020, we have supported leaders who face a universal yet often overlooked challenge: the psychological load of leadership. While companies invest heavily in strategy, tools and operations, few invest in strengthening the inner capacity of the people making the hardest decisions. Laavu offers research-based psychological coaching that helps leaders improve self-awareness, manage stress effectively, communicate with clarity and make decisions from a grounded, focused state. Our approach bridges psychotherapy and business coaching, offering in-depth yet goal-oriented support from a certified psychologist who truly understands the world leaders operate in. Laavu offers a comprehensive membership designed to support leaders continuously: The membership includes: • Regular 1-on-1 coaching sessions with a dedicated psychologist-coach • On-demand support between sessions • Access to Laavu App with goal tracking, notes, and curated material • Monthly community events that bring leaders together for peer-to-peer support, shared learning and open conversations about real leadership challenges. The goal of the membership is not only to solve problems but to create an ongoing environment where leaders grow steadily, stay mentally sharp, and maintain a sustainable pace year-round. By 2025, Laavu has grown into a team of 16 professionals serving over 230 leaders monthly from top-tier growth companies in Finland and abroad. Our members are telling a consistent story: when they truly understand their inner drivers, emotions, and patterns, they lead with more clarity, better judgment, and a stronger presence. Because, Mind is Your Own Business.

Frank Founders

Frank Founders is built for one thing: creating pipeline and growth for B2B SaaS companies through digital marketing. We work with ambitious SaaS teams and take ownership of the strategy and execution needed to drive real revenue. We’re part of the Frank Agency Collective - a group of small, specialized agencies that each operate in a narrow segment and focus on measurable outcomes in their domain. The goal is simple: be the obvious choice for a very specific type of client, and irrelevant to everyone else. Frank Founders is a micro-agency with 100% focus on B2B SaaS. That means you work close to the business: you lead strategy, drive execution, and stay close to the numbers. We expect people to take charge, make decisions, and treat client challenges as their own - and in return, we offer a high degree of freedom, trust, and ownership. Our culture is shaped by three principles: 01 Same side of the table - We work with clients as one team, with shared goals and clear accountability. 02 One size fits nobody - We use proven methods, but always tailor them to the company’s stage, priorities, and commercial reality. 03 Process drives progress - We rely on clear structures, frameworks, and testing to turn complexity into momentum and measurable growth. Day to day, that means a lot of sparring, open feedback (“frankly speaking” is part of how we work), and a strong focus on craft. We share knowledge, clients, and responsibilities across the team and are based in Talent Garden on Holmen in Copenhagen, surrounded by other startups and scaleups.

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.

We offer a sustainable, non-toxic alternative to traditional wood-based panels.

Spontanique

Spontanique is a platform where venues can list last-minute availability in seconds and reach spontaneous bookers - with no upfront cost or added friction. Every day, cultural, fitness, and entertainment venues lose revenue due to last-minute cancellations and unsold capacity. These unfilled spots go unnoticed by people who might have attended - if they’d only known. Our customers are experience providers (gyms, studios, theatres, tour operators, venues etc.) that rely on consistent bookings. Many lack the tools or reach to market last-minute openings, and that results in economic inefficiency. On the consumer side, people are increasingly spontaneous - they book based on mood and availability, often just hours in advance. But the market isn’t built for them. We’re solving both problems: wasted capacity for venues and a lack of spontaneous discovery for consumers. We give customers a live feed of discounted experiences they can book right now, across categories like fitness, entertainment, wellness, and events. It’s seamless for partners (fully self-serve) and exciting for customers - who get access to great experiences that would otherwise be lost. We turn empty spots into revenue and spontaneous moments into opportunities. Our platform functions like a “Too Good To Go” for experiences - a win-win for both businesses and customers.
