The Scaling School

At The Scaling School, we aim to provide valuable knowledge and a collaborative community for ambitious entrepreneurs and teams. We’re dedicated to supporting businesses in making a difference and naturally scaling up. We envision a future filled with energetic leaders ready to tackle global challenges and drive positive change! Our main target groups consist of founders and teams, as well as municipalities mainly in the Nordics, that we support by training local businesses to progress and grow. As 50% of local businesses will not survive their 5th birthday, we aim to change the outcome to success for many more.

LEVU

Levu is a booking and payment platform for the beauty and personal care industry, built around a fundamentally different revenue model. Today, salons and clinics are burdened by fragmented booking systems, no-shows, heavy administration, and high fixed platform fees that erode already thin margins. Meanwhile, customers expect fast, frictionless booking and seamless payments. Levu solves this by shifting platform costs away from salons and onto the end user. Instead of charging businesses recurring subscription fees, Levu generates revenue through a small service fee per completed transaction paid by customers — aligning incentives across the entire ecosystem. Customers book and pay for treatments in advance, while salons benefit from reduced no-shows, improved cash flow, and simplified operations, without increasing their fixed costs. Levu is designed for local, city-by-city rollout, enabling controlled expansion, strong unit economics, and early paths to profitability. The product is developed and prepared for initial market entry, with a go-to-market strategy focused on high-frequency services such as hair, beauty, and wellness. We are currently raising capital to fund initial market entry, operations, and targeted local marketing in our first Danish cities, with the objective of proving traction and scaling sustainably.

Privat Økonomi

Privat-økonomi.dk er bygget med en klar mission: at gøre det nemt for private at få fuldt overblik over deres økonomi – på samme måde som virksomheder har gjort det i årevis med regnskabssystemer. I dag findes der mange værktøjer til budgetter, bankapps og regnskab for virksomheder, men meget få løsninger der samler hele den private økonomi ét sted. Privat-økonomi.dk lukker det hul. Platformen fungerer som et privat regnskabssystem, hvor brugere kan: - Få struktureret overblik over indtægter og udgifter - Følge deres økonomi over tid – ikke kun måned for måned - Arbejde systematisk med budgetter, kategorier og økonomiske beslutninger - Skabe et solidt fundament for opsparing, investering og fremtidig planlægning Fokus er ikke kun tal, men kontrol, forståelse og beslutningskraft i hverdagsøkonomien. Løsningen er i dag lanceret i Danmark, men er fra start bygget skalerbart med henblik på det skandinaviske og tyske marked.

Zerify AB

Zerify is developing SafeCall to help individuals and businesses solve the global problem of phone fraud and lack of digital trust with verified calls using BankID. The problem is that phone scams deceive thousands of people every year, causing a breakdown in trust where people no longer know if the person calling is genuine. With the rise of AI, this has become even harder, as technology enables realistic voice clones that can mimic a parent, a boss, or remove language barriers for scammers. "No verification = no trust," meaning people are afraid to share sensitive information over the phone. We are building technology to make digital trust possible. Our solution is SafeCall, an app where you call with a verified identity by using BankID to authenticate the call. For businesses, we offer SafeCall Business, allowing companies to verify their calls so customers feel safe to answer, thereby strengthening the trust between company and customer. We are "Swishifying" (swedish app Swish) telephony to make verified communication the new normal, where unverified calls are ignored just like we avoid clicking on unknown links today. Our vision is to make the digital world safe, credible, and human. The motivation comes from a desire to protect people and companies against fraud, AI manipulation, and false information. We believe that IT should not be complicated; it should be easy to use correctly. By creating solutions like SafeCall, we aim to be a driving force towards a safer digital Europe where trust is a given, not a risk.

Bellis

Bellis is developing a direct-to-consumer travel experience platform to help local tourism businesses sell experiences and gift cards directly to travelers, solving the problem of high commissions, lost customer relationships, and generic discovery on traditional booking platforms — powered by low fees, strong data ownership, and an AI-driven discovery layer. The tourism and experience economy is dominated by large global booking platforms and deal sites that take high commissions (often 15–30%), control customer data, and prioritize volume over relevance. For local hotels, inns, attractions, and experience providers, this results in shrinking margins, limited ownership of customer relationships, and heavy dependence on third-party platforms for visibility and sales. At the same time, travelers face a different but related problem: discovering authentic, local experiences is surprisingly difficult. Recommendations are often generic, paid placements dominate results, and users must jump between many different platforms to plan a trip. The result is a disconnect between what travelers want — personal, meaningful experiences — and how experiences are distributed online today. This problem affects a large and fragmented market: thousands of small and mid-sized tourism businesses across Denmark (and beyond), and millions of travelers each year looking for better inspiration and simpler booking flows. Despite digitalization, much of the value is extracted by intermediaries rather than staying with the local hosts who create the experiences. Bellis solves this by acting as a direct booking and discovery layer between travelers and local hosts. For travelers, Bellis is a single place to discover, save, and buy experiences and gift cards directly from hosts — without hidden markups or confusing redirects. Discovery is curated and increasingly personalized through an AI travel assistant that understands structured tourism data and recommends experiences based on interests, companions, timing, and location. For hosts, Bellis is not a traditional OTA. There are no setup fees, subscriptions, or long-term lock-ins. Partners only pay a low transaction fee when they actually make a sale. Bellis provides the infrastructure — checkout, gift cards, partner dashboards, analytics, and server-side tracking — while hosts retain control over pricing, branding, and customer relationships. A key part of the solution is measurement and data transparency. Bellis ensures that marketing and traffic can be tracked and optimized even when bookings happen in external systems, allowing partners to understand real performance and invest confidently in direct sales. Bellis started from first-hand experience working closely with tourism businesses and seeing how much value was lost to intermediaries. Again and again, great local hosts struggled to make direct sales while paying high commissions to platforms that added little beyond distribution. At the same time, as travelers ourselves, we felt how impersonal and repetitive travel discovery had become — even in a country full of unique places and passionate hosts. The inspiration came from Denmark’s Marguerite Route: guiding people away from the highways and toward hidden gems. Bellis is the digital version of that idea. The motivation is simple: keep more value local, make discovery feel human again, and give both travelers and hosts tools that work in their favor — not against them.

SpacelyLabs

We’re SpacelyLabs, and our mission is simple but ambitious: remove the physical friction that quietly drains revenue from the built world. The Problem: Spaces aren’t broken. They’re wasting money. Most buildings, stores, and travel hubs are designed with small, invisible barriers that push customers away without a sound. A door that’s too heavy. A layout that creates bottlenecks. A missing handrail that makes someone choose another venue. These aren’t just accessibility issues. They are abandoned revenue streams hiding in plain sight. A massive share of consumer spending power sits with people whose mobility is changing. When their experience feels hard, they don’t complain. They just don’t return. The result is a silent leak that operators never measure but feel in their balance sheets. We’re here to give businesses the superpower they’ve never had: the ability to see, measure, and fix friction before it kills throughput. The Solution: A performance engine for the physical world SpacelyLabs is a B2B SaaS platform that turns buildings into measurable, optimizable systems. Think of it as the analytics layer the physical world has been missing. We create Digital Twins of real spaces, analyze how people actually move and interact, and pinpoint exactly where friction blocks flow and revenue. Clear insights. Clear ROI. For Real Estate: We show how removing a tiny barrier can unlock a disproportionate boost in customer movement and spending. For Transport: We surface the critical interface problems that break seamless travel and cost operators loyalty. Our Unfair Advantage We’re building a ground truth dataset no one else has. Today: We collect verified, engineering-grade data through a specialized scout network. Tomorrow: It will be autonomous. We’re training computer vision models so a simple walkthrough video can generate a full friction map and commercial recommendation set instantly. This is where the product becomes magic. Why join now? We’re early, ambitious, and moving fast. We already have strong market signals and pilot discussions with major operators. The pain is obvious, the demand is real, and the opportunity is huge. If you want to build something technically challenging that changes how millions of people move through the world while opening a market worth tens of billions, this is the moment to jump in.

Optagonen Workshop

Optagonen AB is a Sweden-based creative education company helping schools strengthen students’ confidence, creativity and communication skills through modern workshops in music, storytelling and AI-driven learning. Traditional school environments often struggle to engage students with formats that feel relevant today. Many young people lack confidence in expressing themselves, and teachers have limited time and tools to support creative development. We solve this by delivering a complete, high-impact workshop model where students create real cultural works together with established Swedish producers, writers and artists. Students write lyrics, record vocals, create stories, draw cover art and publish their work on major streaming platforms. The process builds self-esteem, teamwork and digital literacy through hands-on creation. Under the hood, several autonomous AI systems — built in-house — support logistics, content generation, data processing and post-production. This allows us to scale operations efficiently and deliver consistent quality across hundreds of workshops. With more than 390 workshops delivered in 150+ municipalities across Sweden, Optagonen has proven that creativity is a powerful catalyst for learning. Our mission is to expand this impact further and make creative education accessible, modern and inspiring for every school.
