Powering the community-led business revolution
January 2021
🐣 The beginnings of crowd.dev
Jonathan (Co-Founder, CEO) was responsible for go-to-market at a DevTool company. He was soon frustrated that the work required him to switch between endless platforms and work with incomplete data. During this time, he also realized there were no tools available that had all the integrations and features he needed for the developer space.
July 2021
🎉 crowd.dev is officially founded
Working on a solution that was making his own life more manageable, Jonathan figured out that other companies struggled with the same problems. So he teamed up with Joan (Co-Founder, CTO) and they decided to found crowd.dev. They also started to think about the future and that a critical tool like this, should be open source. This would enable to, over time, form a strong developer community around crowd.dev that could add use-cases to the software.

📈 The team starts to grow, and so does demand
After releasing the first MVP developer-focused companies found crowd.dev and signed up to the alpha version. At the same time, Jonathan and Joan started to build out the team with the first engineers.
October 2022
💰 2.2M€ in funding to execute on our roadmap and grow the team
To incorporate all the valuable feedback from early users in our community, it was time to bring in external funding to accelerate the building process. We are super happy that we found investors who believed in our mission to be the go-to-market tool of choice for developer-focused companies. With that, we hired more passionate individuals growing the team to 10 people.
November 2022
💡 Releasing our updated product and open source offering
We released our open-source product into the world with enhanced applications and features. We have a strong belief that our open-source approach will create value beyond our own product offering. We want to collaborate with everyone building software for the community-led era and create a vibrant and open ecosystem around our project. If you want to go far, go together.
Until 2030
