Amelle Closes 3M SEK Pre-Seed Round

Amelle, a Stockholm-based AI platform, has raised 3 million SEK in pre-seed funding. The round included participation from Mikael Wiklund, JWK Redovisning, and Carl Svernlöv. No lead investor was disclosed.

What Amelle Does

Amelle helps accounting firms meet Sweden's anti-money-laundering law by drafting general and individual risk assessments, including KYC checks. The platform reads a firm's customer register, checks board members against public registries, and flags risk factors such as unusual industry classification codes. The firm reviews and adjusts every suggestion, keeping human oversight in the loop.

Founded in December 2025, Amelle charges a fixed annual fee based on firm revenue plus a variable per-customer fee. It serves accounting firms ranging from mid-sized practices to solo consultants.

Why It Matters for Acquisition Watchers

Amelle targets a specific regulatory pain point—AML compliance for accounting firms in Sweden—with an AI-assisted workflow that integrates directly with a firm's existing customer register. The combination of a fixed annual fee and a per-customer variable fee creates a recurring revenue model tied to the size and growth of each client firm.

The pre-seed round, backed by individuals and an accounting firm (JWK Redovisning), suggests early validation from within the target market. For acquirers interested in regulatory technology (regtech) and compliance automation, Amelle represents an early-stage asset focused on a niche but mandatory compliance workflow.

Outlook

Its focus on a legally mandated compliance process could provide a durable demand driver, though the company remains pre-scale and its traction is not yet disclosed.
