Company mission

We work hand-in-hand with our clients to build the best software possible while up-skilling their teams.

Our take

As the world of business technology continues to grow and evolve at an enormous rate, Stride steps in as a strategic partner helping businesses to digitally transform. To this end, the company delivers custom software as well as GenAI tools and an array of complimentary services.

One key target for the company is tech debt, which - in an ever-accelerating sector - is on the rise. This is because companies struggle to weigh quality against speed of delivery. Stride's latest offering, which is powered by Gen-AI, helps teams combat tech debt by automatically generating and testing complex code to keep products up-to-date.

Trusted by numerous clients including Codecademy and SeatGeek, it is clear that Stride's approach is valuable. It will be interesting to see what comes next for the company, as it has proved its ability to move with the times and tackle key problems in the space.
