Sifted AI 100: Europe's most promising AI-native startups in 2026
Duna has been named in Sifted's 2026 AI 100, the ranking of Europe's most promising AI-native startups, for the second year in a row. With partner N47, Sifted's judging panel narrowed a long list of around 1500 companies to 175, then scored each one on market opportunity, competitive edge, and momentum.
Our customers' results over the past year show where that momentum comes from. At seQura, a Know Your Business (KYB) review now takes 14.9 minutes instead of four hours, and 88% of merchants onboard correctly the first time, up from 50%. At bol, the Dutch marketplace with around 43,000 selling partners, partners onboard in 12.2 active minutes instead of waiting two weeks for a postal activation code.
"It’s been another big year working side by side with our customers on their AI transformation: picking high-impact use cases, deploying AI on them, and training the analysts who use it every day. For us, being AI-native covers that work as much as the product, and it means a lot that our customers trust us with it." - Duco van Lanschot, co-founder, Duna
