Description

Rally is a brand-new company, building storytelling tools for teams.

Over the past few years, teams have gotten used to working apart. The office is no longer the center of gravity for work. Slideshow presentations and meeting recordings aren’t ideal solutions for teams outside the office – do you feel engaged? Does your audience?

Rally is working on tools to help distributed teams stop relying on in-person, office-first communication strategies – and get better at async.

We believe stories can rally teams – so let’s empower some storytellers.

About the team

We’re funded, fired up, and hiring a core team to bring the product to market. That’s where you come in.
