Gousto

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

The recipes are delivered right to your doorstep once a week so you decide when to cook. Whenever you’re on holiday or just don’t have time, simply place the subscription on hold – it’s easy.

Gousto was started in 2011 by two friends who share a passion for food and cooking. In their previous lives, Timo and James loved cooking but didn’t have much time to go to various grocery shops.

They found it difficult to cook recipes from online databases or follow cook-along TV shows. Ready-meals from supermarkets do the job but the quality isn’t great, they have lots of additives, and they get boring very easily.

One day, James and Timo decided that there must be some way to make life easier and the idea for Gousto was born. The first recipes were offered at market stalls and from there the concept has grown into what you see today.

By analysing web server traffic in real-time, the software detects and immediately determines the sophistication, capability and effectiveness of each attack. This information is translated into a risk score to prioritise incident response.

Cyberlytic’s patented classification approach is far more effective at assessing attacks than traditional signature-based security solutions and adapts to new or evolving threats without requiring manual intervention. • Advanced threat detection: Unsupervised machine learning detects anomalies in web traffic, whilst supervised machine learning classifies attacks based on threat characteristics.

• Threat analysis, visibility and prioritisation: The Profiler only alerts when a pre-defined risk threshold is exceeded and provides details of malicious web activity. • Simple deployment and zero maintenance: No rules or signatures means no additional demand on analysts to detect even the most sophisticated attacks.

The Profiler is easily deployed by installing a web server agent or by connecting to mirrored network traffic. Data is sent to the Profiler, which is hosted in Cyberlytic’s secure cloud.

Accessed via an intuitive web portal or integrated with any Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system, the Profiler works autonomously, requiring no human intervention.. .

Pronto Technology

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

Pronto, we care deeply about the meals we deliver to you. We want them to be very good; for you, the community and the environment.

All our healthy meals are freshly cooked from scratch, just like at home – they won’t see the inside of a freezer.. Doing so allows both the individual and company to track stats derived from that behaviour.

It also permits organisational leaderboards (teams, departments, offices) fostering friendly competition and allows the client (and external brands) to reward this behaviour. Users accrue “Yomps” – akin to an Air Miles for being healthy – which can be redeemed for discounts at high-street retailers, online stores, and even donations to charity.

Their main revenue-stream is an annual SAAS licence fee paid by the Corporate / Local Authority. Additional revenue streams are advertising / brand partner fees (CPA / CPC); content sponsorship; and affiliate links / sales – all of which have a positive correlation with user-base..

And with our help they can build brighter futures for themselves, their family, and those they love. We believe that once people can see the benefits of financial education, they understand.

When they understand they act. When they act they’re rewarded.
