“We basically pivoted a little bit to start selling it as a SaaS product to cities. For example, in Germany, we are located in Finland, we have already like several customers here, but we wanted to go to another country. So in Germany, for example, the cities would license our platform and then use it in their region together with us.”
“SaaS license fees and subscriptions easily. So that's kind of like bringing us 90% to 95% of all our revenue”
“It's city owned businesses like visit organizations. They pay at the moment €249 per month. Now we're just about to raise the price to €450 per month.”
