About Peoplebox
Peoplebox is an OKR platform that makes it easy for large companies to align teams and execute faster.
The thing that makes Peoplebox different is that it integrates with all work-tools (SQL, Jira, Asana, Hubspot, etc) to provide real-time visibility on all your goals, initiatives and what’s blocking the progress in one single dashboard.
We are techies turned product guys, having built our first startups in Dublin, Ireland, and SF (YC S12) respectively. We joined Practo, one of Asia’s largest health-tech startups, when it had 250 employees and saw it grow to 3,000 in just a couple of years.
We witnessed the challenges of hypergrowth companies first-hand. We realized as companies grow, the problems of misalignment and lack of cross-functional visibility only becomes larger, resulting in poor execution speed, missed goals, high talent turnover, and sometimes death.
Our vision at Peoplebox is to become the Operating System for strategy execution to help companies align and achieve moonshot goals.
