About the company

Hey there! We are a Sequoia backed SaaS startup on a mission to help e-commerce brands embrace conversational commerce as the future of selling online. 


We helping e-commerce brands on Shopify move away from boring, impersonal marketing emails and embrace chat apps like FB Messenger & Whatsapp as the new way of selling to their customers.


Currently, 2000+ Shopify brands across 50+ countries use BiteSpeed to drive 20%+ revenue doing everything from Whatsapp marketing to chatbots & handling support across channels. (pretty cool right?).


Check us out here - **https://apps.shopify.com/bitespeed-fb-messenger-chatbot** and do read through the 200+ odd 5-star reviews to get a sense of what our customers say about us (we openly brag about this 😉).


Funding

We are pre-Series A funded and recently raised $3.5M. So far we have raised a total funding of $5.68M over multiple rounds. We’ve had some solid investors back us (making it easier for you to stalk us since you’d do this anyway)

About The Team


We are a bunch of BITS Pilani graduates that started BiteSpeed out of our dorm rooms. When we started we hardly knew much about running a company, in fact most of us hadn’t written a line of code in our lives.


We were inspired by companies like Postman and Freshworks which have built market leading software companies from India and had a desire to create something world-class which we could be proud of.


So we jumped off the cliff and built a parachute on our way down (just as Reid Hoffman likes to say).


We could make a long, boring list of 20 company values but by now you probably do get a gist of the kind of people we are. We are young, ambitious self-learners on a journey to create a globally competitive software company from India.
