Kapwing works completely online, which means that creators can access and edit their content from any device or location. Work is automatically saved in the cloud so files don't need to be locally transferred. And, when you're ready to export, just sit back and relax as it all happens in the cloud.

The idea for Holidu was born when Johannes and Michael Siebers were trying to book a vacation rental for a surfing trip to Portugal. The brothers spent hours browsing through dozens of websites to find the right accommodation and were frustrated that some of the rentals were offered on multiple websites for different prices. In July 2014 they founded Holidu to finally make the search and booking of vacation rentals easy. Soon after, the Holidu website was helping millions of travelers find their perfect vacation rental for the lowest price.

The growing team behind Holidu realized that in order to truly accomplish the mission, they needed a solution for vacation rental owners as well. Therefore, they launched Bookiply, an independent software and service solution that helps vacation rental owners multiply their bookings with less work. Bookiply distributes their properties to the largest travel websites, synchronizes calendars, and creates multilingual descriptions as well as professional photos. A team of experts takes over traveler communication and helps owners maximize revenues.

Today, more than 300 travel and tech-enthusiasts work hard to continuously improve Holidu and Bookiply for travelers and vacation rental owners. The company has its headquarters in Munich and regional offices in the most attractive leisure destinations across Europe. It is recognized by customers and partners for its service quality, has received awards as one of the fastest growing companies in Europe and is reviewed among the most popular employers in Germany.

Holidu is a search engine for vacation rentals that allows you to find your perfect accommodation and book for the lowest price.
