CommandBar is a platform for helping software companies make their software easier to use.
How many times have you been frustrated by software? Maybe you didn’t know how to make the software do what you wanted. Maybe you had to wade through pages and pages of support documentation — or stay on hold with a chatbot — to figure something out. Or maybe the software you were using took 12 clicks to do something basic.
CommandBar makes any software product simpler, faster, and personalized. We do this by enabling product teams to embed a collection of widgets inside their products that can proactively guide users and react to what they seem interested in.
Today, CommandBar serves forward-thinking SaaS companies like Gusto, Hashicorp, Netlify, Freshworks, and AngelList.
Despite our scale, we’re a tiny team today that’s just beginning to grow, which means tons of opportunities to do trajectory-altering work. If you’re inspired to upgrade how humans use software, come join!
