Gridly, a Helsingborg-based content operations platform for game and software developers, has raised €1.3 million (SEK 14 million) in a new funding round, Rapidus reports. The capital will primarily fund the integration of agentic AI into its platform, while also welcoming Jörgen Larsson, founder and former CEO of listed gaming company Stillfront, as a new investor and board nominee.
Gridly’s platform helps game and software studios organize, plan, and track digital content, a critical need in an industry where efficiency and scalability are key. The key is to remove the need for endless files, versions, or emails.
“Our platform already works very well for our customers as it is. Now, we’re focusing on integrating AI, particularly agentic AI,”
says CEO Anna Albinsson to Rapidus.
This next-generation AI will enable Gridly to automate complex workflows, strengthening its position as a must-have tool for developers.
The majority of the €1.3 million comes from existing investors, but the round also introduces Jörgen Larsson, a gaming industry heavyweight with deep expertise in the sector. He brings extensive experience from Gridlys most important vertical: gaming.
From Localize Direct to Global Ambitions
Founded in 2022 by Christoffer Nilsson and Mattias Wennerholm, Gridly spun out of Localize Direct, a company specializing in translation and localization for game developers. Rapidus reports its investor base includes Nordic Game Ventures, Teknoseed, and Innovum, alongside Subvenio Invest and Rendered VC, which led a previous round.
