Company mission

To eliminate business blindspots and improve operational excellence by connecting data, teams, and customers.

68% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

Tired of building the same features over and over within their online database work, the founders of Knack set out to create the building blocks to jump-start each application, resulting in the creation of a no-code software development platform that provides users with the tools to create efficient business applications for tasks like productivity, accounting, and team workflow.

Launched in 2012, Knack is now being used across the globe with over 5,000 customers including Intel, Capital One, HP, Oxfam, Panasonic, and Spotify. Funds raised by the company will help to accelerate the growth of its platform, focusing on creating additional product features, and expand its development and customer support teams.
