The Problem
Restaurants lose revenue during slow hours. Theatres and concerts play to half-empty halls. Yoga studios and dance schools run classes with open spots. Sports facilities sit underused.
The current solution — social media ads — is too slow, too broad, and not built for real-time, location-aware discovery. Businesses pay to reach everyone and convert few. There is no layer between "something is happening right now" and the people nearby who would want to know.
Our Solution
Yazzo is a map-based app that shows everything happening in the city — right now and tomorrow. Dining, events, concerts, yoga classes, dance courses, theatre, sports. If it is happening nearby, it is on the map.
Partners publish in seconds. Users discover, decide, and book — all in one flow. No scrolling feeds. No ads that miss the moment. Just the city, live.
Mission
Build the real-time layer of the city — connecting people with everything happening around them, and giving every local business a better way to reach nearby customers than social media ads.
Vision
Become the leading local discovery platform in the Nordics — the first place people open when they want to know what to do today, and the first place businesses publish when they have something to offer right now.
Business Model
Yazzo offers two ways for partners to reach users — one for visibility, one for conversion.
Visibility listing
Partners pay a small flat fee to appear on the map. Suitable for any business that wants to be discoverable — restaurants, studios, venues, event organizers. Low barrier, predictable revenue for Yazzo.
Offer listing
Partners publish a time-limited offer — a last-minute deal, an available class spot, a discounted ticket. Users book and pay directly in the app. Yazzo takes a commission per transaction. Revenue scales with usage.
