OUR MISSION
Make Developers’ Lives Easier
Life is Complicated
Why software engineers and testers always need to be “lost in code”? We’re here to help you, no matter you’re coding alone in your garage or sitting on a 100-person dev team at a large corporation. We want to make your life easier.
We Feel Your Pain
We know how challenging it can be to get your software to deliver the experience you want. Customers now expect seamless digital interactions. But here’s the thing, the way we build, test and deliver software has changed, fundamentally. Continuous Testing and Continuous Delivery is a challenge for most software engineers.
Designed for Devs
That’s why we made Bitbar the most flexible testing platform in the purest DevOps spirit! Bitbar helps you to be Agile, flexible, and efficient so you can deliver better software experiences to your customers as fast as possible.
A Cool Idea
Bitbar started as the idea of two brothers ice skating on a lake above the Arctic Circle. It grew to automating Google’s AR testing, supporting Angry Birds becoming the most successful mobile game ever, and supporting devs the world over.
We Made It
And we’re very proud of it. We can make it work for you too! We are here to help you to become a New Software Organization. Let’s talk!
Moi! Cześć! Hi!
We’re just about everywhere from the Arctic Circle to sunny California. Whichever office you visit you’ll always find hot coffee and warm people eager to make new friends.
