We Won the Next.io Startup Pitch 🏆
OneHazel won the NEXT.io Startup Pitch Competition in Malta. Still buzzing. Here is what we built, why it matters, and the people who made it happen.
Still buzzing from it, honestly.
OneHazel started as a simple frustration: integrations take months, break constantly, and hold brilliant operators back from the tools that would actually move their business.
So we built something to fix that. Operators can now build and maintain their own connectors in minutes, with AI agents doing the heavy lifting.
And here's the part most people do a double take on: we have a forever free account. No trial countdown, no card required. Go build something.
Thank you to Pierre Lindh and the entire NEXT.io team for putting on a brilliant event and giving startups a real platform.
Thank you to the judges for the tough questions and the vote of confidence — Jeffrey Haas, Benjie Cherniak, Davis Catlin, James Scicluna.
And a massive thank you to everyone in the audience who voted for us. We felt it.
Most of all, thank you to the team — to Ella Beaumont for her patience and Christian Harms for his networking and organisational skills, to Michael Earley and Mikko Puhakka for your constant great advice, to our extended network of advisors, friends and trial users. None of this happens without you.
