Horaizon is an AI consulting and product company helping organisations turn the hype around artificial intelligence into measurable business outcomes. The problem we see every day is twofold: • Uncertainty — businesses know AI will change how they operate but don’t know where to start. • Inefficiency — companies waste time and money experimenting with generic tools that don’t address their specific needs. At Horaizon, we bridge that gap by working alongside organisations as if they were our own. We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes. Whether a client comes to us with excitement or hesitation about AI, our role is the same: to provide clarity, trust, and results, helping them adapt and scale in a future where AI is not optional but essential.

Herodesk is a fully remote tech startup based in Denmark. We have created a new customer service platform for small and mid-sized businesses and webshops. Our mission is to make customer service easy. It should be easy for our customers to use Herodesk, which in turn should make it easy for their customers to get the help they need. To achieve that, we've created a helpdesk and live-chat product that is simpler and cheaper than the alternatives. Our product was launched in September 2023. Now, a year later, we have close to 100 paying customers, with more being onboarded weekly. Our founder, Anders Eiler, has previously co-founded SpeedGaming and Meebox, and led the DanDomain E-commerce division (a >€10M rev. division). Based on those learnings, it was clear that a simple and affordable customer service platform was missing for small and mid-sized businesses. So in the summer of 2023, he founded Herodesk and entered a deep-red ocean with many established competitors, but with a mission to make great helpdesk software available for the masses. We've found product market fit, and it's time to scale the businesses nationally and internationally.

Sellintu ApS is a Danish startup from Copenhagen in Denmark, established in 2023. The idea behind Sellintu, is to help physical product brands and companies to sell intelligently into marketplaces. By marketplaces, we mean programs require "approval" to get into, that a retail store run for third party suppliers, that allow to list their products on their store, to dropship to their customers. This is in contrast to "open to all" marketplaces like Amazon and Ebay, where there is little to no approval process to go through. We focus on three areas in this journey: 1: Matching brand to partner channel, by using inhouse data anytics to guide the process. 2: Onboarding with partner channel, by doing it on our clients behalf, or develop tools to increase the onboarding time. 3. Sell more and earn more with partners, by automating processes relating to daily operations, such as fulfilment of orders. Why do we do this? Because we went through the steps above, and encountered numeruous processes that we thought could be optimized with the right tools, to 10x the experience selling through these channels. With the main tools in hand, we want to offer them to other companies who already suffer, or are about to suffer what we went though.
