Where we are today
Live product: Our beta at beta.bidsale.eu is finished and running two platforms, one for investors and one for partners.
Commercial traction: We have 20+ signed letters of intent (LOIs) from investors, NPL servicers, real estate agencies, legal and technology partners across Europe and the US.
Pre-revenue, by design: We're a pre-revenue startup converting these LOIs into pilots and customers, so you'll build revenue and commercial analytics from the ground up.
Proprietary AI: We built a neuro-symbolic AI engine for EU and judicial auctions. It pairs machine learning with structured legal reasoning to turn complex court and auction documents into reliable, decision-ready data.
Protected IP: We have an EPO patent pending and 2 intellectual property rights registered with the EUIPO (the EU Intellectual Property Office).
Recognised innovation: We were awarded the EIC Pre-Accelerator Seal of Excellence and have won multiple technology innovation awards.
€1M in R&D grants secured in 2026: We won DIGIT and Eurostars funding.
Next-stage R&D underway: We're in the application process for EIC Accelerator, EIC Pathfinder and DIGIT VALID. We're applying in consortia with international companies and FER (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb), a leading technical university.
Global team: 40 people from 15 countries. We're headquartered at ZICER (Zagreb Innovation Centre) in Zagreb, Croatia, with 30+ independent contractors across Europe and Asia.
Recent achievements:
EU Seal of Excellence (May 2026): awarded by the European Commission for our Horizon Europe proposal BRIDGE, recognised as a high-quality proposal under the EIC pre-accelerator (Widening) call.
Eurostars-awarded consortium: grant contract signed in September 2025, and the work is underway.
DIGIT grant awarded (2026): €496k to deliver our BRIDGE project over 24 months.
Further funding in the pipeline: DIGIT Valid application submitted.
Bidsale launched in stealth (May 2025): our AI platform for European public real estate auctions.
R&D partnerships: we collaborate with FER (University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing), its TakeLab text-analysis lab, and EDIH (European Digital Innovation Hub).

Must-haves
Strong SQL and hands-on experience with BI tools and data visualisation.
Python for analytics and automation.
Experience with product analytics platforms such as Mixpanel, PostHog or Google Analytics.
Solid understanding of product, business and growth metrics.
A track record of turning complex data into actionable recommendations.
Experience working independently with crossfunctional stakeholders and leadership.
