Merge is an API-first platform that revolutionizes how B2B companies build and manage customer-facing integrations (think Plaid for B2B Saas companies). Our unified API allows our customers to seamlessly add integrations into their product for their customers to directly sync their data. We currently support +60 HRIS, ATS (Recruiting), Accounting and Ticketing platforms with accessible API design, SDKs in multiple languages, and easy-to-use documentation.

Why join us?

  • Raised $20 million in capital: 4/2021 - Seed led by NEA (+ came our of stealth mode), 9/2021 - Series A led by Lee Fixel.

    Additional investors include: Greg Schott (Former MuleSoft CEO), Matthew Prince (Cloudflare CEO), Jean-Denis Greze (Plaid CTO), Alex Solomon (PagerDuty CTO & Founder), Harry Stebbings (20VC), Packy McCormick (Not Boring Capital).

  • Since coming out of stealth in April 2021, we've grown our team from 7 to 38 across our offices in San Francisco and New York City.

  • We've grown from about 100 to over 1000 customers on the platform, reaching that milestone in only 9 months since launch. We launch new integrations weekly and plan to expand into different integration verticals/categories.

  • As an API-first company (think Stripe, Plaid, etc.), we're providing mission critical but non-core functionality to our customers. B2B Integrations are a necessity for growth but build outs take away engineering time & resources. Merge is changing that by allowing our customer to integrate once & fast.

Projects you might work on
