- 2026-08-18 No live Swedish company is registered under this name, checked against Bolagsverket's bulk file on 2026-08-18 including the "Sweden", "Sverige", "Nordic" and "Scandinavia" variants. That is why it has no organisation number: there is nothing to match, rather than a match we missed. It may still be registered under a legal name that does not resemble its brand, so a later find simply replaces this.

Everything I could know about Freshsound
A blank is a gap in my coverage.
Company health
Filed with a public registry- SurvivalRunway ~2 moLoss-making in its latest filed accounts (FY2025). cash 1.6 MSEK, loss 9.7 MSEK over the year (0.8 MSEK/month), revenue 0.7 MSEK, revenue growth 190%. Cash divided by that burn is ~2 months of runway. Filed facts, but the burn is the accounting result rather than true cash flow, and a funding round raised since the filing date does not show here yet.

- GrowthShrinking, -1Average employees filed with Bolagsverket went from 5 in 2024 to 4 in 2025, a change of -1 people. This is a fiscal-year average from filed accounts, so it lags: it says whether the company has been adding people, not whether a role is open today. Filed revenue FY2023 773 KSEK to FY2025 704 KSEK, across 3 filed years.

- SectorMedia & entertainmentMapped from the industry tags this company reported to the startup directory (Media & entertainment). Self-reported, so it is the company's own claim about its market.

Hiring practicalities
Read from their job ads- Open rolesNo data for this company yet
- Working languageEnglish siteI hold no job-ad text for this company, so this is read from their own site: their website declares itself English. That is a proxy, not a statement about the working language. Checked against the 222 companies where I have both, it agrees about 9 times in 10, and the way it fails is a company running an English site while hiring only in Swedish.
Fit and mission
Worked out from facts I hold- Fit (chaos or structure)Chaosfounded 2020 (6 years ago), ~4 employees, Seed stage. Age, size and stage combine into the read.
