We are
Paraplu

An Estonian holding company reimagining corporate culture through innovation, automation, and shared values.

About Paraplu

Paraplu is an Estonian holding company for a number of subcompanies. We function as more than just a traditional holding structure.

We serve as a business-to-business hub for our portfolio, centralizing accounting, equity management, hosting, administration, taxes, and providing a shared labor pool.

This structure enables us to act as an incubator, allowing rapid experimentation with new subcompanies and projects.

Our Origin

We are a team who came together with a shared vision: to reinvent what corporate culture can be.

Drawing from our collective experience, we built Paraplu as a framework that prioritizes people, innovation, and meaningful work over traditional corporate structures.

Our Values

Intrinsic Motivation

We align our work with what genuinely drives us, creating an environment where passion and purpose intersect.

Try New Things

Innovation requires experimentation. We embrace new ideas and provide the structure to test them rapidly.

Automate Everything

If it's boring, it should be automated. We free our time for creative and meaningful work.

Value People

People are at the heart of everything we do. We build systems that serve humans, not the other way around.
