About Hopoti

Our story began in 2015 when Ville was struggling to find a suitable stable for his daughter and even the bookings could be made only by phone at certain times. "Could this be easier?" The brainstorming and work began immediately together with riders and especially the stables, who also told about their difficulties. The following year, Hopoti Software Oy was founded. In the summer of 2017, Hopoti.com was released to solve the problems encountered by businesses and consumers alike.
