Company mission
To allow everybody to better find, plan and live authentic outdoor experiences.
Our take
With the rise of mobile apps, using technology to access outdoor adventures has never been more popular. Komoot, founded in 2010, helps millions of people across Europe plan and enjoy hiking and cycling tours with its Android & iOS apps.
Komoot is aiming to become the go-to app for cyclists and hikers across Europe. To do this, it's growing its community status through competitive and friendly route-sharing technology, as well as increasing its brand awareness to compete with other apps such as Strava and MapMyRide.
With staff all over the world, this work-where-you-want operational structure makes Komoot well-placed to expand into new markets. With this strategy, Komoot is helping more and more people to enjoy exploring nature, by putting as little friction as possible between users and the outdoors - ultimately making the outdoors accessible for anyone with a smartphone, regardless of experience.

Company values
- Impact - We are builders & makers. We measure our own success by how impactful our work is. We put the user first. Always. We don’t do things just to do them, we do the right things to deliver maximum impact
- Responsibility - We hire people who are experts at what they do, and we give them the freedom to do it. With great freedom comes great responsibility. We consider the long view and effects on company and colleagues. Who’s the boss? You. Everybody. Our users
- Communication - Communication is all about understanding each other and talking is just the beginning. We share our ideas and learn from one another each and everyday. We listen to our users and each other to solve problems that matter. We share ideas, learnings and feedback with openness and clarity
- Curiosity - We love to learn. And we champion curiosity. No matter what our field of expertise, we’re always asking questions. Data scientists, copywriters and developers work alongside each other to solve problems for real outdoor fans
- Excellence - We’re constantly improving. Some of us are real optimization nerds. We take nothing for granted and constantly strive for the best. We don’t believe in repetitive work, that’s why we don’t have a structure for it. Repetitive work is for machines ... and we’re not robots
