We’re a VC-backed SaaS company that makes people happier, organizations more productive, and software more powerful, all over the world. We’re taking on a major problem that people are passionate about solving: we make it easier to collaborate across teams. We don't make users learn new tools and change the way they work. By connecting work management tools, we allow managers, cross-functional teams, departments, and entire companies to benefit from seamless collaboration and improved communication. We sync projects across a number of tools, but our main focus is on Trello, Asana, JIRA, GitHub, and Wrike. This is a hard problem of semantics, synchronization, and APIs. Show less
