Company mission
To reinvent how businesses engage with their customers and grow revenue from their existing customers using data and machine learning insights.
Our take
Hook are developing a powerful machine learning platform that informs subscription businesses which enterprise customers they need to focus on, and what actions they need to take to increase loyalty.
With the increasing amount of companies offering subscriptions as their main or additional revenue streams, the type of insights Hook provide are particularly relevant. They want to change how businesses engage with their customers by harnessing the power of technology, which will require a strong technical team.
Backed by some of the top early stage investors in Europe – including LocalGlobe and Mulesoft founder Ross Mason – Hook has already started working with customers, including some of the fastest growing companies in the world.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Hook
Firaas Rashid (Founder & CEO)
- We live and breathe diversity through everything that we do - our primary goal as a company is to build the best workplace for ambitious people that want to be part of a team; the only way we do that is by having true diversity weaved through our DNA
- We think diversity is more than just ticking boxes - it means bringing in people from different backgrounds, experiences and opinions, and providing a safe space to work and express your opinions
- We believe that truly having a mixed team generates diverse opinions and thoughts leading our direction and this is the only way to create an incredible working environment that remains innovative and fun
- We're 50/50 on gender, many of us grew up abroad, our first software engineer and sales rep were both female and we've found pizza is the only universally liked food in the team (with a vegan option!)
- We make sure that our investors and suppliers match our company values and are are as diverse as we are - we don't work with suppliers that don't agree with our values
- We encourage you to stalk us on LinkedIn to see more about our backgrounds and understand more about our team

The scale of the challenge we're facing is enormous; by far the biggest I've faced in my career so far. We’re taking on one of toughest data projects in the world - building data pipelines which will ultimately need to scale across hundreds of customers. If you enjoy problems of data ingestion and analysis, and employing thoughtful approaches to problem solving, join us.

Challenging work
Sep 2021
We have an unbelievably diverse set of people, from an array of different backgrounds, all of whom have come together to form our amazing team. One of the great things about this therefore, is that it presents an amazing opportunity to learn from one another. Speaking personally, even after just a few months working at Hook, I've learnt so much - whether it be in the field of software development, infrastructure or development of our ETL data pipeline - the amount of knowledge I've been able to gain has been incredible.

The B2B SaaS market has seen massive growth over the last few years. We know now that a huge amount of software is being sold, but only a fraction of it is actually being used. We're on a mission to change that. We want to help organisations understand who is using their product, and just as importantly who isn't. Using product led data to predict churn, and provide data-driven insights in how to reduce it, is game changing. I love seeing how our customers - now for the first time - are able to use Hook to fully engage with their customers.

10 weeks at Hook has allowed me to explore all departments of the business including engineering and product which gave me the opportunity to ask any questions I had and learn more about what they do. Through being mentored by the CEO and Head of Operations, I have developed both personally and professionally as I've learnt so many new skills!

We have a challenging data problem and believe we can be the first in the industry to solve it! It's a learning curve every single day, being it making a new data source fit our schema, optimising processing time or coming up with smart and useful insights. And this is just the beginning!
