Description
Why  GetWhy ? GetWhy  is a fast-growing AI-powered consumer insights platform that is redefining qualitative research for global brands.  By combining deep human understanding with scalable, mechanized AI, we enable insights leaders to embed empathy directly into their companies’ workflows, strategies, and go-to-market decisions. This is not AI for research’s sake.  It’s   AI  for human insight, designed to  operate  at  enterprise  scale. For more than a decade, we’ve  worked to bridge the gap between companies and consumers, ensuring  real human  experiences inform innovation, brand, and growth.  Our clients include some of the world’s most recognizable brands such as Coca Cola, Heineken, eBay, Unilever & Nestle. Our short-term goal is  do  this by owning the premium, strategic space of embedded AI for human insight partnering with global enterprises across consumer-led categories to build understanding as a durable capability, not a one-off project. GetWhy is a fast-growing, global scale-up headquartered in  Denmark , trusted by leading brands including  Arla ,   eBay and The Coca-Cola Company, Heineken and many more. To fuel our growth, we raised a $34.5m Series A from PeakSpan  Capital in 2024, followed by an  additional  $15m in 2025, the largest non–life science round in Denmark, alongside $8.45m from CIBC Innovation Banking. At our core, we believe the future belongs to companies that don’t  just have more data, but more understanding.  That’s  what we help them gain.
