Technical Co-Founder

We believe that everyone deserves peace of mind. People should not take the important, decade-long financial decisions like pension, mortgages, or health insurance without access to sparring, guidance and trust of an advisor. In our previous operating roles at a leading European InsureTech unicorn, we built an insurance wallet and platform that facilitated 100.000 insurance and mortgage consultations. Now, we use those learnings in building the best possible Copilot for advisors in Germany and Denmark. Enabling them to deliver peace of mind at scale.

Who we are

Michael is a solo technical founder with a track record as Product and Operations leader at a unicorn. He encountered the problem himself, built the MVP, and now iterates towards PMF with a set of alpha customers. We're bootstrapped / grant-financed but with big ambitions and strong investor network to raise capital once we hit product-market fit. Our advisory board includes unicorn founders and world-class ML researchers from Google and Stanford. Feel free to check my LinkedIn and reach out with any thoughts or questions.

Our values

We believe in growth, challenging ourselves, and the adventure of a startup.

We try to take things with humor, are gritty, and proud serving our customers.

We keep things simple and communicate clearly.
