Alloy is a modern iPaaS used by Amazon, Best Buy, Typeform, & other enterprises. The company is backed by $27M in funding from Andreessen Horowitz, Bain Capital Ventures, Shopify, Y Combinator, & others. I cofounded Alloy in 2019 alongside my good friend and longtime collaborator Gregg.
We started the company simply because we wanted to build a better no code automation platform. Since then, we’ve expanded our platform to support embedded integration and unified API use cases. Today, billions of API requests flow through our platform and thousands of companies directly and indirectly use the integrations we power. I’m extremely proud of the team and the work we’re doing at Alloy, and continue to stay involved from the board.
