A mission to ensure good recovery without losing the good customer relationship.

The short story
Debbie is a SaaS-based recovery platform.
The target group is both companies that want a customer-oriented, digital debtor service (and possibly self-collection) and professional collectors such as lawyers and collection companies.
The company behind the platform was established in 2018 by Emil Brandt, a software architect and full stack developer, and Michael Brandt, a lawyer with more than 20 years of experience in debt collection and large recovery portfolios.

After several years of development, the first professional debt collectors were connected to the recovery platform, which in 2022 was split into Debbie Dunning, focusing on the reminder process, and Debbie Collect, focusing on the subsequent debt collection process.

In late 2022, the company also developed Debbie Freezing for the Parliamentary Winter Package at the request of several utility customers already using Debbie Dunning and Debbie Collect.

"My goal as CEO of Debbie is to build on the strong foundation that has been created and continue to deliver innovative solutions that help companies optimize their collections processes in a respectful and customer-centric way."

My motivation stems from a belief that financial health and great customer experiences can go hand in hand. Debbie creates value by putting the customer journey at the center, and it's a core value I am dedicated to further developing.

We are focused on solving complex challenges for growing and transforming businesses. Our mission is to be a strategic partner that makes it easier for our clients to maintain relationships, strengthen liquidity, while taking care of their brand and reputation.

I am proud to lead Debbie as we make a difference for businesses across industries and geographies every day."

Jimmie Villadsen

CEO

"My wish was to create a solution where recovery and debt collection are done in a respectful way to retain customers and with a focus on reputation management. And I am proud that we have succeeded.

There was a specific need from my father's law firm, which was responsible for large recovery portfolios, and it has been optimal to develop the solution based on real cases, real clients and for real case handlers.

Debbie has evolved from only being used for debt collection by collection agencies and lawyers to also being used for debtor services in companies, so now we deliver customer-oriented recovery from invoice to overdue and bailiff to prescription."

Emil Brandt

Founder and CTO

“Jeg har altid været drevet af at skabe kommerciel vækst med mening – hvor teknologi, mennesker og forretning spiller sammen.

Hos Debbie får jeg lov til at være med til at forme en ny standard for, hvordan virksomheder arbejder med betalingsflow og kundeoplevelser.

Som CSO har jeg ansvaret for at udvikle og eksekvere vores kommercielle strategi med fokus på vækst og skalering i Norden. Jeg arbejder målrettet for, at vores løsninger ikke bare skaber resultater hos kunderne, men også sætter nye standarder for, hvad man kan forvente af en moderne, værdidrevet SaaS-forretning.

Debbie kombinerer det bedste fra to verdener: Et stærkt purpose og en skalerbar teknologi, der skaber reel effekt - både på bundlinjen og i relationen til slutkunden. Det er præcis det, der motiverer mig hver dag.

Frederrick Hamann

CSO

“Hos Debbie er jeg med til at bygge bro mellem teknologi og mennesker – og det er netop dér, jeg føler, jeg skaber mest værdi.

Jeg arbejder hver dag for at sikre, at vores kunder ikke bare kommer godt i gang med Debbie – men også får fuld værdi af løsningen i det daglige. Som Customer Success Lead har jeg ansvar for onboarding, drift og udvikling af vores samarbejder, og jeg brænder for at gøre komplekse processer enkle og værdiskabende.

Min baggrund inden for både rådgivning, account management og digitalisering har givet mig en stærk forståelse for kundernes virkelighed – og hvad der skal til for at skabe tillid og fremdrift. Jeg trives bedst i dialogen med mennesker, og jeg arbejder struktureret og datadrevet for at sikre, at vi når fælles mål."
