About Us

At Syndicate, our mission is to help Ethereum scale while advancing decentralization to fulfill the promise of a user and community-owned internet. We empower developers to create innovative applications by simplifying the complexities of web3. Our first product, Transaction Cloud, abstracts the intricacies of sending API-driven transactions, allowing teams to focus on delivering exceptional user experiences. Building on this foundation, we are now developing metabased rollups to further enhance scalability, decentralization, and economic empowerment for communities.

Founded in January 2021, we've raised over $28M from top leaders who represent a diverse array of industries and communities, including firms like Andreessen Horowitz, IDEO CoLab Ventures, Variant, Electric Capital, Coinbase, and over 200 other strategic and community investors.

We’re proud to be a distributed company that's remote-first. We’ve built a top-notch remote culture that includes perks such as an employee perks stipend, coworking space stipend, unlimited time off, regular in-person meetups around the world (including twice a year where we fly the whole company out to a shared summit), and many more benefits to help you do your best work wherever you are.

At Syndicate, we're committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and welcoming team. We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
