Productboard

Productboard is a leading cloud-based product management platform that has grown from a 2014 startup to a $1.72 billion unicorn company serving over 6,000 customers globally. Founded by Hubert Palan and Daniel Hejl, Productboard emerged from Palan's realization while working in Silicon Valley that there were no clear, consistent product management best practices—only chaos. This insight led him to create a platform that would bring structure and clarity to product decision-making.

Headquartered in Oakland, California with significant presence in Prague, Czech Republic, Productboard has established itself as the customer-centric product management platform that empowers teams to get the right products to market faster. The company serves notable customers including Salesforce, Zoom, Microsoft, British Airways, Cartier, Korn Ferry, JPMorgan Chase, UiPath, and thousands of others across various industries.

Productboard achieved unicorn status in 2022, just 8 years after founding, following a $125 million Series D funding round led by Dragoneer Investment Group and Tiger Global Management. The company has raised a total of $262 million from investors including Sequoia Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Kleiner Perkins, Index Ventures, and Credo Ventures. With approximately 332-500 employees across 5 continents, Productboard has built a diverse global team committed to transforming how products are built.

In 2024-2025, Productboard made significant strides in artificial intelligence, launching Productboard Pulse for AI-powered customer feedback analysis and Productboard Spark, a specialized product agent designed to supercharge product managers. The company reported $71.8 million in revenue as of November 2024, representing substantial growth from previous years. Productboard's platform re-architecture and investment in next-generation AI positions it as a leader in the evolving product management software landscape.
