Founder story

Eliq was founded in 2010 in Gothenburg, Sweden, by Håkan Ludvigson, Joakim Botha, Olof Hartelius, Joakim Fischer, and Joakim Ottander. Recognizing that traditional utilities relied on passive, confusing billing cycles that led to poor customer engagement, the team set out to digitize energy data. By leveraging machine learning, Eliq built a SaaS platform that translates complex meter readings into clear consumer insights.

Comparison overview

• Eliq operates primarily as a B2B2C white-label SaaS and API suite for utilities rather than a direct-to-consumer energy retailer like Tibber.
• Unlike broad building management tools, Eliq specializes in AI meter disaggregation, bill forecasting, and customer retention for residential and SME utility consumers.
