I’m excited to share that I’ve joined Autlio as Co-Founder! 🚀

Autlio – formerly known as Rentster – is a next-generation automation and self-service platform on a mission to help businesses operate autonomously and 24/7.

Having been part of fast-growing teams like Veriff, Siffi, TextMagic, Salv, and Tallink, I’ve seen how automation can empower people rather than replace them. 

That’s exactly what inspired me to join Autlio — to help companies focus human energy on creativity, innovation, and real value creation, while our software takes care of the rest. 💡

Already, more than 130 companies are using Autlio to make their services smarter, more efficient, and available anytime. 

👉 New name. Bigger vision. Same mission – simplifying and automating how sports center, marinas, vehicle, equipment, rental & service companies companies work.
