Adaptive is a rapidly growing vertical software company of 34 building world class financial tools for real estate and construction. We have raised $26m from Emergence, a16z, and other top funds as well as a collection of angels from companies like Brex, Ramp, Airbase, Square, and Shopify.
We serve the small businesses that are building communities across our country. Your favorite local café, the new house on the corner, or the ADUs helping to solve the housing crisis were all built by our customers--those that have lived in their cities for their entire lives and have a true passion for their craft. These are creative, dynamic, skilled individuals who bring neighborhoods to life by conceiving of and constructing environments where people connect and build memories. We're powering these businesses with access to the same world class financial services and software that the large developers have.
We have built a culture rooted in collaboration and execution - and experience! We have deep backgrounds in finance, technology and construction and a fast-growing customer base. We have the momentum, team, and vision to win in this massive market. We'd love for you to join us.
