€2m · Pre-Seed · Software · Malmö, Sweden
Malmö-based OAIZ, which turns plain-language briefs into cloud-based agentic workflows, has raised €2m in pre-seed funding. Øresund Startup News reports that returning investor node.vc joined new investors Icebreaker.vc and Karaoke Club, alongside a group of angel investors. The company plans a full launch later in 2026.
From generated agents to governed operating workflows
OAIZ is positioning itself between lightweight AI assistants and the systems companies rely on to complete work. Its product converts a natural-language request into a visible workflow made from agents, code, rules and approvals. Customers can inspect the proposed sequence, test a draft and promote a checked version to live operation. In practice, that can connect an incoming event such as an email or support request to actions across business software, with execution records kept for review.
That structure matters commercially because the challenge is not only generating a useful response. A production workflow must decide which systems an agent can reach, what it may change, when a human must approve an action and how a team can diagnose a failed run. OAIZ says each agent receives scoped access, sensitive steps can pause for named approval, and workflow changes can be versioned and tested before deployment. The product also offers implementation support, so the company is selling both software and the work required to turn a customer process into a reliable automated system.
The model creates a clear test for the new capital: whether OAIZ can make deployments repeatable rather than rebuilding every customer’s operations from scratch. Its platform material describes workflows as shared assets with access controls, logs, cost limits and integrations; those features can reduce the amount of custom supervision needed after launch. But the economics will depend on standardising enough of the implementation while preserving the customer-specific rules that make each workflow useful.
Early use gives OAIZ a practical proving ground
OAIZ already lists customers including Malmö stad, Controla, MarketMate and Consignum. Øresund Startup News says workflows are running at Malmö stad, while an OAIZ customer story says Controla uses the platform across customer support, engineering triage and investor reporting. These are company-reported examples, but they show the product being applied to recurring operating work rather than only demonstration tasks.
Karaoke Club identifies founders Daniel Wisenhoff, Emil Wåreus, Felix Kruuse and Simon Kihlberg Wallström. The investment gives the team room to move from early deployments toward the planned launch; the more important milestone will be showing that governed workflows can be launched faster across customers without turning OAIZ into a services-heavy consultancy.
