Who We Are

At HigherPeople, we partner with innovative, high-growth companies to help them build exceptional teams. We are proud to call Roboflow one of our clients as they continue their mission to make the world programmable.

Sight is one of the key ways we understand the world, and soon this will be true for the software we use, too. Roboflow is building the tools, community, and resources needed to make the world programmable with artificial intelligence. They simplify building and using computer vision models, with over 1M+ developers, including those from half the Fortune 100, using their machine learning open source and hosted tools. This includes applications such as counting cells to accelerate cancer research, improving construction site safety, digitizing floor plans, preserving coral reef populations, guiding drone flight, and much more.

Roboflow’s team is small relative to its impact, and they believe their users’ success is their success. A team member summarized it best: “Roboflow is a company full of giant brains and tiny egos.” Software has a multiplier effect across all roles—not just product and engineering—so Roboflow employs developers in design, sales, customer support, marketing, and beyond.

Supported by great customers and investors, Roboflow has raised over $63 million from Google Ventures, Y Combinator, Craft Ventures, Sam Altman, Lachy Groom, and other leading software investors.
