Company mission

Align's Technologies GmbH's mission is to allow people in business to reach agreements and align together so they can lay a robust foundation for building something great.

Our take

The conditions of a business agreement can change at rapid rates across various details and disciplines, and this can be difficult to manage. Traditional means of communication prevent all parties within the agreement from being updated regarding agreement changes, and this can make it difficult to maintain compliance as an entrepreneur and can cause tension within collaborative business relationships.

Along Technologies GmbH provides a sales engine for digital entrepreneurs focused around facilitating seamless communication regarding business agreements. The design-based platform includes social features that allow collaborative teams to agree on pricing and terms, approve project milestones, and confirm changes to project approaches, providing a single source of truth for all agreement-related information.

Whilst platforms such as UpWork, Asana, and Monday already provide a means for collaborative teams to approve project goals and milestones, Along's approach to providing a universal source of contractual agreements is unique. The company also stands out by providing integrations with file storage systems, accounting systems, analytical software, and other relevant platforms.
