We are growing fast as a company and do our best to bring our SaaS cloud-based backup services to the global audience.

Our platform is designed to provide customers with an immutable historical archive of their primary data in systems such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Entra ID, Dynamics 365, and Zendesk. It aims to protect them against everything, starting from ransomware to simple accidents.

Most of our back-end components are written in clean, modern C++ using mainly purpose-built components. Several components that deal with business processes and data mining are built using Common Lisp. Everything runs on Linux.

Backing up billions of objects over foreign APIs using imperfect networks on systems with finite memory and making it all happen in as little time as possible, is no small feat.
