# About Palette: company, team, and Copenhagen

> Meet Palette's four Copenhagen-based founders building Palette Desktop and Palette OS, backed by Emblem, Acadian Ventures, and Ugly Duckling Ventures.

Palette is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. We build tools for AI-native teams, backed by [Emblem](https://www.emblem.vc/), [Acadian Ventures](https://www.acadianventures.com/), and [Ugly Duckling Ventures](https://www.uglyduckling.ventures/).

Palette Desktop is available today for working with agents on files and folders. [Palette OS](https://palette.team/os) is the wider company system we're building for shared context, skills, handoffs, and connected agent work. The [Context Library](/docs/os/overview) is its shared-context feature.

Each can stand alone, and they are better together. Palette Desktop is one way to work with Palette OS, while compatible AI tools can connect through MCP.

## Team

Four co-founders, all from the Copenhagen tech scene. Find us on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/palette-team).

**[Lars Ettrup](https://linkedin.com/in/larsettrup/)**, Co-founder & CEO. Previously Linkfire.

**[Steffen Sommer](https://linkedin.com/in/steffendsommer)**, Co-founder & CTO. Previously Monstarlab.

**[Brian Kyed](https://linkedin.com/in/briankyed/)**, Co-founder & CCO. Runs everything GTM.

**[Christian Lomholt](https://linkedin.com/in/christianlomholt/)**, Co-founder. Previously Podimo, Planday.

## Where we are

Early stage. Working closely with design partners, shipping weekly, iterating on what shared context actually looks like in practice.

## Value

Yes, we currently have just one company value. Because it says everything we need.

> **Ordentlighed** At the core of Palette is something deeply Danish: ordentlighed. It's hard to translate, but we know what it means. It means we care. About the work. About each other. About doing things properly, even when it's harder. We're not here to posture or play startup games. We want to build something real. Something useful. And do it in a way we're proud of. That means being honest, even when it's uncomfortable. Moving fast, but not breaking people. Having fun, but also thinking deeply. That's ordentlighed. And that's how we work. That's the kind of company we want to build. That's what we want Palette to feel like.

## Principles

A few simple ideas guide how we build Palette. (See also our [Manifesto](/docs/about/manifesto) for the full belief system.) They help us stay focused, make better choices, and keep things human, even as we build with AI.

**For the 99%, not the 1%.** No prompt engineers. No power users. Just real teams.

**Painkiller before vitamin.** We solve real pain, not "nice-to-haves."

**Respect the human work.** Let AI do what it should, so people can do what only they can.

**Teams over individuals.** We care about the whole team. Not just leads. Not just ICs. The team wins together.
