Front is on a mission to enable better relationships at scale. Relationships are everything in business, but they’re hard to maintain as a business grows because traits like trust, compassion, and empathy are human qualities that have been difficult for technology to scale. We’ve reimagined the way businesses communicate by bringing customer conversations to the center of one’s focus. Today, nearly 8,000 businesses have discovered that they can still grow their business and keep the human touch.
With $204M in funding, Front is backed by Sequoia Capital and other leading venture capital firms, as well as independent investors including top executives of Atlassian, Okta, Qualtrics, Zoom, and PagerDuty. Front has received numerous Great Place to Work accolades, including
Y Combinator’s list of Top Companies in 2023,
#4 on Fortune’s Best Workplaces in the Bay Area™,
Inc. Magazine’s 2022 Best Workplaces list,
Forbes Best Startup Employers 2022 List, and
Best workplaces for Millennials 2022 list.
