Company mission
To create stunningly-designed productivity tools that help teams work beautifully together.
4% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
The ability to collaborate is a useful tool in any industry, having measurable impacts on productivity and business success. To this end, Meister develops web-based productivity tools that "make teamwork fun" and allow its users to harness the power of true, effective collaboration.
The Meister Suite - encompassing MindMeister, MeisterTask, and MeisterNote - is built to bolster online productivity through smooth workflows, with mind mapping, task management and collaborative documentation capabilities.
The company may not have gained the same levels of attention as some competitors, but nonetheless has collected an impressive list of clients including Deloitte and IBM, and has created a foundation for itself upon which it can build and expand into the future.
