To build a new kind of customer service tool for modern, product-centric companies.
Over the last decade, engineering infrastructure across virtually every company area has become more advanced: Payments, communications, data, and so forth. What used to take teams in high-growth companies entire quarters to accomplish now takes individual engineers a few days.
Plain is an API-first platform built to bring this change to customer service by giving product and engineering teams at every scale everything they need to build great customer service. With founders who have seen the impact this has at companies like Deliveroo and Lyst, their experience plays a key role in the teams decision to focus on the customer service function.
There are a lot of tools to compete with in the customer support space, including successful services like Intercom and Zendesk. Plain are going to need to build a stand-out product to win, but they have the team and backing to make it happen.
