Our take
Lucid Software offers a visual collaboration suite helping teams work together and communicate in bringing ideas to life. Its Lucidchart, Lucidspark and Lucidscale products help brainstorm, clarify, and analyze ideas to streamline production.
The company has seen impressive growth as more companies have embraced the ability to manage dispersed workforces in an engaging and efficient manner. Hybrid teams remain common practice, so there is a continued appetite for tools that offer an easy, centralised way of managing disparate teams.
This trend has contributed to Lucid's strong performance, which has seen it named to Forbes Cloud 100 for five consecutive years as of 2024. Organizations like Google, AWS and Atlassian are among its clients, along with over 95% of the Fortune 500 - and the company's leading position in this growing market should see it continue growth into the future.
