More than 14 million students have used us to choose where to study and live, and we power the investors, developers, operators, universities and property advisers shaping the sector, with 4.3 billion+ real-time data points spanning pricing, availability, incentives, planning activity and verified student sentiment across the UK, Ireland and seven European markets, with the rest of Europe and the US next. Behind all of that is a small team of people who genuinely care: about students making one of the biggest decisions of their lives, about the sector we serve, and about each other. We are over 50 people located remotely, and we've built a place we actually like coming to work.

At genieX, we believe that traditional methods of software development are quickly becoming outdated. Years of hands-on experience with building applications from scratch have revealed their inherent drawbacks—lengthy timelines, high costs, and inflexible outcomes. SaaS products don’t help you either since you’re limited by whatever features the vendor builds into it, plus the risk of vendor lock-in is huge . Which is why we champion smarter, faster approaches—leveraging the power of AI, coupled with low-code and no-code technologies. We also prioritise open-source tools to eliminate the risk of vendor lock-in. This strategy enables us to deliver scalable, high-quality solutions at unprecedented speeds, saving time while driving impactful results.

At Maze, we're building a new type of cybersecurity platform, built from the ground up to use LLMs and AI Agents to make decisions, instead of pre-defined logic.
