Our goal is to help professionals reach their career ambitions through the power of peer feedback.

We believe: 🏆 Peer feedback is the silver bullet to reaching your aspirations. 👩‍🔬 People perform better when they hear monthly peer feedback (proven by science too!). 🧙‍♂️ Everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve mastery, learn, grow, and be respected by their peers.

✨ Matter makes feedback easier, pleasant, and more productive. ✨

How do we know? Because our customers told us! The app is amazing. Everything about it, from the interface to the way in which I am able to send and receive feedback is amazing. - Product Manager at Dribbble

Matter is an empathetic experience which directly speaks to your heart, connecting yourself to your peers and driving betterment. - Designer at Adobe

As knowledge workers, we are paid to use our brains. We spend too little time improving how our brains work. Matter is an incredibly powerful way to grow your skills. - Product Leader at Airbnb

Engineering at Matter

Engineering team and processes

Our company meetings quarterly to determine what we want to accomplish in the next quarter.

After the company quarterly meeting, our team operates on a weekly sprint cycle. Each sprint begins with a retrospective to ensure we are all improving how we work with one another. During our sprint planning, we discuss time estimates for features to ensure everyone is prepared to have a fun and productive week.

Engineers typically work with a designer and any other interested parties to spec a feature, then work on the feature individually. We use Pull Requests on GitHub to conduct code reviews.

Technical Challenges

We're using several emerging technologies and patterns like a monorepo, GraphQL, a separate UI component library, etc... This results in us solving problems which haven't been solved before.
