Registered as Tendium AB
Every year hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ money is wasted as a result of poorly drawn up and mismanaged government contracts. All this under the pressure of strained budgets and increasing costs for public expenditure. Since 2018 Tendium has been working to fix this problem using AI to create a better and more transparent market for public procurement levelling the field for vendors as well as exposing rigged contracts and giving taxpayers greater value for money.

Everything I could know about Tendium
A blank is a gap in my coverage.
Company health
Filed with a public registry- SurvivalRunway ~0 moLoss-making in its latest filed accounts (FY2024). cash 0.6 MSEK, loss 24 MSEK over the year (2.0 MSEK/month), revenue 22 MSEK, revenue growth 110%. Cash divided by that burn is ~0 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. This is a year-end figure. Right now the company has 13 open roles and its last two filings show headcount growing, +6 (+12%), none of which a filing this old can reflect. Money raised after the year end does not appear here.

- GrowthGrowing, +6 (+12%)Average employees filed with Bolagsverket went from 49 in 2023 to 55 in 2024, a change of +6 people (+12%). 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 FY2022 4,372 KSEK to FY2024 22,167 KSEK, across 3 filed years.
