Our Mission

Our mission is to ensure software development teams can do their best work. That’s why we created Shortcut—the most intuitive, lightweight and enjoyable project management platform teams actually want to use. By breaking down barriers, we help teams focus on what matters: working together to create products their customers love.

Our Values

Treat people right

We are respectful, thoughtful, and empathetic when interacting with each other, our clients, and our partners.

Spread joy

Our work should make people smile. There’s plenty of boring software in the world, we don’t need to add to the list.

Take ownership

We own our decisions, take action, and independently adapt to circumstances to deliver the best possible results.

Be open by default

We work and communicate openly, honestly, and responsibly.

Have a bias for action

We make swift decisions and move forward quickly using our best judgment. Deep deliberation is reserved for times where our actions are irreversible.

Meet the leaders behind Shortcut

We break down barriers so teams can focus on what matters – working together to create products for their customers.
