About Lippa

We think above the models, not between them.

Lippa is a small, founder-led product built by Accillion AS. One operator, a handful of collaborators, and a thesis: the right place to do serious thinking isn't inside any single model — it's in a workspace that sits above all of them and remembers what matters.

The thesis

The winning interface won't be a model.

Models will keep leapfrogging each other. The best one this month won't be the best one next month. So the right thing to build is not another model, and not another wrapper — it's the workspace that sits above all of them, remembers what matters, and makes switching free.

The bet

Memory is the moat.

Raw chat capability commoditises fast. Memory — the structured, reviewable, portable record of how you actually work — doesn't. That's the thing we invested in first, and it's the thing we're still investing in most.

Founder

Built by someone who's done this before.

Rolf Larsen

Rolf Larsen

Founder · Accillion AS · Bordeaux / Oslo

Serial tech entrepreneur from Norway, now based in Bordeaux. Rolf has spent almost three decades building internet infrastructure: RiksNett (1995) — the largest competitive ISP to the Norwegian telco incumbent; Active ISP (1998) — a pan-European domain registrar and the first to fully automate registration and hosting; the .GLOBAL top-level-domain registry, later acquired by Afilias; and operator / chair roles across Vyke, NameBlock, iQ Global, and Webtop.com. He is currently the CEO of Call.com.

Lippa is his first AI-native product. Development started in Q1 2026 as a personal tool — one operator tired of losing half a day every time a frontier model shipped, paying for four subscriptions to read four different answers to the same question. The tool worked well enough that it became a company.

What we hold

Six beliefs that shape every decision.

Your data is not our product.

We charge for software, not for harvested signal. No training, no selling, no surprises buried in a terms-of-service update.

Model-agnostic, forever.

We'll never bet the product on a single provider. The day a frontier lab ships a better model is a good day for users — not a crisis for the engineering team.

Export by default.

If we ever build a feature that makes your data hard to get out, we've built the wrong feature. Portability is a design constraint, not a compliance checkbox.

The interface is the product.

Benchmarks are for investors. What matters is how a person feels on their eleventh chat of the day — whether the tool helps them think, or just adds more tabs.

Small, honest, durable.

A software company, not a rocket ship. Sustainable pricing, slow hiring, real support. The intention is to still be here in 2035.

European by design.

Built in Bordeaux and Oslo, operated on EU infrastructure, with data residency as a default. No footnotes, no asterisks.

Roadmap

Where we are, where we're going.

Q1 2026
Development started under Accillion AS.Founder-led, built as a personal tool first. Memory engine, multi-model routing, and the Glass workspace shipped internally.
End of May 2026
Invite-only launch.A small group of knowledge workers, consultants, and early teams. Friends, colleagues, and the waitlist go first. We keep it small so the feedback loop stays tight.
End of June 2026
Open to all.Free, Pro and Pro Max go live for anyone, no invite required. Same EU infrastructure, same memory engine, no "lite" version.
Q3 – Q4 2026
Teams tier.Shared Spaces with roles & permissions, SAML SSO, SCIM, audit logs, centralised billing, per-seat tokens with a shared credit pool. On the roadmap, not yet sold.
2027 →
Enterprise, SOC 2 Type II, and the things we won't announce until they work.On-prem routing, per-workspace encryption keys, regulated-industry deployments. Patient work.
