ABOUT PADLET 

We are building more beautiful and fun alternatives to traditional documents. They're less of a pain-in-the-ass to create, and a lot less waterboard-y to view. Think Microsoft Office, but not as soul crushing. 

Over ten million people use Padlet, making it one of the largest sites in the world. The company is profitable and well-funded.

GOOD TIME TO JOIN 

Because we're small, there's a lot of energy. And because we have tremendous traction, your work and insight can go in the hands of millions. This combination is rare and quite satisfying.

About Padlet

We are easily bored. It's the one thing that unites humanity in 2020. No one wants to read twenty paragraphs of text, or sit through forty verbose slides. Yet, we keep making them, boring everyone out of their minds.
