Our Mission

Help Companies Build Better Products

Meet Amplitude

Amplitude was founded in 2012 by Spenser Skates and Curtis Liu after they worked on a text-by-voice app called Sonalight and realized that the available analytics tools didn’t let them dig deep enough. They set out to solve their own pain, and ended up building analytics that helps companies of any size gain valuable insights from user behavior.

Now, Amplitude is a fast-growing team located in San Francisco. Our investors include Benchmark Capital, Battery Ventures, and Y Combinator.
