About VWO
VWO is a leading Digital Experience Optimization platform trusted by over 3,000 businesses in 100+ countries, including global brands like Samsung, Vodafone, Toyota, HBO, and Domino's. What began 15 years ago as one of the world’s first A/B testing tools has since evolved into a comprehensive, enterprise-grade platform used by product, marketing, and growth teams to experiment, personalize, analyze behavior, and build exceptional digital experiences.
Today, VWO offers a full-stack suite for A/B testing, multivariate testing, feature rollouts, heatmaps, session recordings, behavioural analytics, surveys, personalization, and more across web, mobile, and server-side applications — all in one unified platform. We enable teams to make confident, data-driven decisions that drive user engagement, retention, and conversion.
VWO is a profitable, founder-led business with $50M+ ARR, strong EBITDA margins, and a history of capital-efficient, sustainable growth. In January 2025, Everstone Capital acquired a majority stake in the company to help accelerate our global expansion — both organically and inorganically.
We are a fully remote team of 450+ people, with go-to-market teams across the Americas, Europe, and APAC, and product and engineering anchored in India. Our culture values deep thinking, fast execution, and strong ownership — with minimal bureaucracy and high autonomy. Despite our scale, we continue to operate with the agility and ambition of a startup.
