We are a B2B SaaS company that is re-imagining how companies use sales incentives to motivate their employees. We believe great results are only achieved when people are motivated - and our product is nothing but an extension of that philosophy.

On a more day-to-day level, our product takes away the ambiguity and grunt-work behind manual sales incentive calculation, and allows companies to experiment with incentive plans that actually work for every employee - and not just top performers.

We are backed by some of the best angels and institutional investors in India - and are growing at breakneck speed.
