Our story
Started

Pointerpro was born in 2012 when our founder Stefan wanted to create an iPad Quiz for his daughter’s birthday. After completing the quiz, contestants didn’t just receive their results but also got pictures, videos and fun trivia about Pauline.
Our story
Started
back in 2012
Pointerpro was born in 2012 when our founder Stefan wanted to create an iPad Quiz for his daughter’s birthday. After completing the quiz, contestants didn’t just receive their results but also got pictures, videos and fun trivia about Pauline.
The product has clearly evolved substantially since then but the same values remain at the core of the brand. In a business context, we accomplish this by still offering personalized advice and insights to our respondents. These outputs can be communicated to our clients by both email and beautifully branded reports.
Allow us to use a metaphor.
People are encouraged to go for regular medical check-ups and that shouldn’t be any different for companies. It’s crucial to make sure your business remains healthy by measuring your performance on the regular. We’re not just here to help you diagnose your performance levels, we’re here to automate the way you do so while immediately giving advice on how to improve.
Automation facilitates the delivery of
personalized advice at scale
A couple of core aspirations we strive to achieve. We believe that
Every business interaction should result in a two-way value exchange
Low-tech people should be able to create high-tech tools
