About the company

We are Hiver. We are a bunch of folks with borderline devotional love for email, committed to the idea of making it noise-free and collaborative for teams. Why email you may ask? Email is one of the most common ways to communicate at work, is far less distracting than its chat counterparts, and lets you respond at your own pace. But it hasn’t evolved over the years to meet the changing collaboration needs of businesses. Teams have to rely on inefficient methods like Forwards and CCs to share information, often leading to messy threads and missed emails. Not to mention the toll it takes on your productivity, ability to concentrate and all things zen. We at Hiver are trying to solve this by giving email collaborative superpowers and, in the process, giving you back the most important currency there is - time.
