We build AI that makes a real difference.
Ambolt AI is a Nordic AI house rooted in Aalborg with cases across industries and international markets. We are invited to contribute when the digital future of Europe is being shaped – and we deliver solutions that combine technology with real human value.
Our story
Ambolt was founded in 2016 by three friends who loved working with data but didn’t want to call themselves just “developers” or “consultants.” Instead, they joked that they were “data smiths,” forging insights out of raw data the way a blacksmith shapes metal. The name stuck, and soon after so did “Ambolt,” the Danish word for anvil. It felt right: solid, hands on, and built to last.
In the early days, they worked out of a small office, powered by too many energy drinks and a strong sense of curiosity. What began as passion driven projects quickly showed that AI, when applied with purpose, could create real impact.
One turning point was their work with the Norwegian healthcare platform Helseboka during the COVID-19 pandemic, where their solutions supported vaccination logistics at national scale. Around the same time, what started almost as a joke between colleagues grew into something much bigger: the Danish AI Championship (DM i AI). Born from the idea that AI should be fun, competitive, and accessible, the event has since expanded to Norway and is on its way to becoming a Nordic tradition.
Today, they’ve grown into an international team with roots in Aalborg and ambitions across the Nordics. They are still guided by the same spirit of craftsmanship, curiosity, and collaboration just with a bit less energy drink, a bit more coffee, and a vision that continues to grow.

Our culture & team
We believe that strong solutions are built by strong people. That’s why we focus on talent development, giving our team the freedom to explore new ideas and the responsibility to turn them into impact.
Collaboration is central to our way of working we share knowledge openly and work closely across disciplines to solve complex challenges together.
We also put great value on being a community. From Friday bars and game nights to company trips and informal gatherings, our many social activities create strong bonds and make Ambolt a place where people enjoy working and growing together.
Rooted in Aalborg but with a global mindset, we combine Nordic values of trust and openness with international ambition. This balance shapes both the AI solutions we create and the people who build them.

Today
Today, Ambolt has grown into a team of dedicated specialists who combine technical expertise with creativity, curiosity, and a strong sense of community. From their base in Aalborg, they now deliver AI solutions across the Nordics and beyond, from healthcare and industry to mobility and energy.
Beyond client projects, they are also co-organizers of the Danish AI Championship (DM i AI), which has become a platform for developing talent and connecting students, researchers, and industry. What began as a fun idea is now shaping the next generation of Nordic AI innovation.
What started with three “data smiths” around a small office has become an international AI house, invited to contribute when Europe’s digital future is being shaped. And while their projects have expanded, their habits have too. The energy drinks have long since been replaced by coffee, but the same values of craftsmanship, collaboration, and impact remain.
