Ulrik founded ARPEDIO in 2018 after seven years running a Copenhagen technology consultancy focused on sales enablement and stakeholder intelligence for large European organisations. That work is where the stakeholder data model came from — and where the team's conviction that removing friction matters more than adding features was earned.
He's spent his career inside enterprise sales organisations that knew what good looked like but couldn't make it stick across a team. ARPEDIO is the attempt to make that stickiness engineered, not optional.

These aren't HR values. They're how we behave when we're in the room with you.
We ride alongside the customer — their success is our success. We invest in deep engagement even when it doesn't scale, because adoption, retention, and expansion come from showing up, not shipping and disappearing.
In practice: We co-develop with customers, we run QBRs, we build governance frameworks together. We don't hand over a login and wish them luck.
We take positions, teach the category, and show up where the conversation is happening. We don't wait for the market to come to us — we define what Account-Based Selling means and set the standard for how it's practised.
In practice: We host events with tier-1 consulting partners, publish maturity frameworks, and speak at SAMA. When the category needs a voice, it's ours.
Removing friction is more valuable than adding features. The biggest risk to our customers isn't a missing capability — it's a sales team that won't use the tool. We build for the 80% who need it to be easy, not the 20% who want it to be powerful.
In practice: AI Agents do the work users won't do manually. One click generates an org chart. Sentiment analysis runs in the background. The best feature is the one the seller doesn't have to think about.
We show up as people who understand account-based selling better than most of our customers do. Our credibility comes from knowing the discipline, not just the software.
In practice: We challenge a customer's process when it's not optimal. We operationalise practitioner insights — like "open ARPEDIO during the 1:1" as the adoption pattern — into how we implement, not just how we sell. If we can't add expertise to the conversation, we shouldn't be in the room.
