Swedish SaaS Pioneers

Both the companies and the key people within SAYP Group have been an integral part and force in the Nordic IT landscape since the early days of the internet. Our history stretches back to 1983 when Explizit was founded as a joint venture to support major Swedish industrial enterprises with IT and computers. During the late 90’s several of our group companies had launched their respectively first online solution such as Explizit’s complete customer management system for Swedish Vehicle Inspection Agency.

Quicksearch, who launched one of the world’s first web- and touch-based solutions for customer insights and employee engagement, and Loopon, who in the early 00’s established itself as the hotel industry’s primary partner in  digital guest feedback.

Over the next decade, through several mergers, acquisitions and talent recruiting, SAYP was born.

Our entrepreneurial background is something we cherish carefully. At SAYP, we take responsibility rather than delegate, and being held accountable is a privilege. We strive to attract the sharpest and most passionate minds, but we also believe that a sharp mind comes from an inherent desire to learn, develop, and be allowed to do so.
