Work at the speed of thought
We've built Slapdash to bring all your apps into one place with a fast, low-latency file system for cloud apps and a Command Bar interface. It makes modern computer work less tedious by letting users search, launch, and switch between cloud tools instantly, speeding up workflows that otherwise involve many clicks and context switches.
We live in San Francisco and remote locations. After YC, the company would be based in San Francisco with a distributed team.
We are in San Francisco to be close to the tech ecosystem and talent, but we maintain a remote-friendly culture to access the best people wherever they are.
