Hi, we are Sharetribe. Our mission is to democratize the sharing economy by making platform technology accessible to everyone. We are also trying to find alternative ways of running a company. Join us on our journey to build a better, balanced working life.


Here you'll find our thoughts on working together, decision making, funding, and the fun and not-so-fun stuff that is part of building a company.
