Zendo offers a dedicated platform that streamlines the sales and delivery of digital services. It provides a comprehensive solution for businesses and individuals to manage requests, subscriptions, quotes, and invoices, alongside client communication and workflows. The platform aims to simplify the complexities of offering bespoke services online, allowing users to efficiently productize and scale their service-based operations.
The company emerged from Massive Pixel Creation, a software development firm based in Katowice, Poland. Recognizing the effectiveness of their internal system, WP Kraken, which enabled them to handle numerous client requests with limited staff, Kuba Gaj and Grzegorz Palonek, among others, launched Zendo. Their insight was to transform this successful internal tool into a publicly available platform, with its minimum viable product (MVP) going live in September 2021.
Zendo targets a global audience of businesses and individual service providers looking to enhance their operational efficiency and market reach. The platform's overarching mission is to establish a new benchmark for digital service sales and delivery, empowering users to realize their full business potential. It envisions itself as the essential tool for service sales, akin to Shopify for e-commerce, shaping the future of how services are transacted online.

Zendo Energy is a London-based startup that develops an AI-powered "Energy OS" designed to help data centres decarbonise and optimise their energy usage. Their platform uses predictive analytics to forecast demand, manage volatile AI workloads, and integrate intermittent renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Zendo primarily serves colocation data centres—shared facilities leasing server space to multiple tenants—enabling them to increase capacity revenues, reduce energy costs, and adapt to fluctuating workloads in an increasingly AI-driven computing environment[1][2][3].
Founded in 2024 by CEO Jade Batstone and COO Drew Barrett, Zendo emerged from the founders' combined expertise in renewable energy and B2B software. Batstone, with a background at Square and SWIFT, and Barrett, formerly Head of Renewable Procurement at Octopus Energy, identified the challenge data centres face in managing energy costs and demand volatility, especially with the rise of AI workloads. Early traction included raising over €2 million (approximately $2.2 million) in pre-seed funding led by Fly Ventures, with participation from Octopus Ventures, Pact VC, and angel investors from the data centre industry[1][2][3].
Zendo rides the dual trends of exponential AI computing demand and the urgent global push for decarbonisation. As AI workloads grow unpredictably, data centres face challenges in energy forecasting and cost management, especially with volatile renewable energy markets. Zendo’s timing is critical, offering a solution that aligns with market forces pushing for greener, more flexible, and cost-effective data centre operations. By enabling smarter energy procurement and capacity planning, Zendo influences the digital infrastructure ecosystem toward sustainability and operational efficiency[1][2][3].
Zendo is positioned to become a key enabler for data centres adapting to the AI boom while meeting sustainability goals. Future growth will likely be driven by expanding adoption of AI workloads, increasing renewable energy integration, and tightening regulations on carbon emissions. As data centres seek to balance cost, capacity, and environmental impact, Zendo’s AI-driven platform could evolve into an indispensable tool for energy management worldwide. Their influence may extend beyond colocation centres to broader digital infrastructure, shaping how energy is procured and consumed in the tech industry’s green transition[1][2][3].
