We're Pilea 👋
Pilea was founded on the belief that great products are built when you listen to your users' feedback frequently.
We're here to make that work for you.
Simon Oliver Ommundsen
CEO and Founder
Simon has dedicated his career to championing user experience and product development excellence. Previously, as Chief Product Officer at No Isolation, he was responsible for the development of groundbreaking products including AV1 (the telepresence robot for children with long-term illness) and KOMP (the one-button communication device for seniors).
An active voice in the UX community, Simon regularly shares his expertise as a keynote speaker at prestigious industry conferences including The Next Web (Amsterdam), multiple IxDA (Interaction Design Association) events, and Yggdrasil.
His firsthand experience with the challenges of customer research – particularly for scaling companies without enterprise-level resources – sparked the idea for Pilea. Simon's deep expertise in UX methodologies has shaped our approach to making customer insights accessible to everyone.
