SUMMARY
- Sweden-based mobility app Detecht has raised €395,000 (SEK 4.5 million) to accelerate its international expansion and advance its technology.
The funding round includes participation from Chalmers Ventures along with existing investors.
Detecht offers a mobile platform for motorcycle riders that integrates crash detection, navigation, and social networking features. Using built-in smartphone sensors, the app can identify accidents such as crashes or falls, while also providing GPS-based route planning. Unlike standard navigation apps, it enables riders to choose scenic and curvy routes for a more engaging experience, and allows them to share routes, riding statistics and experiences with other users.
The company’s crash detection system is rooted in research from Chalmers University of Technology and the founding team originates from the Chalmers School of Entrepreneurship combining academic research with startup execution to build a scalable mobility solution.

Niklas Ohlsson, CEO and co-founder of Detecht, said that continued support from existing investors and Chalmers Ventures reflects confidence in the company’s growth trajectory.
Today, we are one of the world's largest motorcycle apps where safety, navigation, and community are integrated into a single platform. Now we are focusing on honoring that trust and scaling operations further."
