About Rewst

Rewst is a venture-backed B2B SaaS startup founded in January 2021. We’ve raised over $50M to date and have hundreds of paying customers.

We’re a low-code workflow automation platform targeted at the Managed Service Provider (MSP) market. To get an idea of how Rewst works and what it does, take a look at our YouTube channel. There you can find training videos from our education team, demos of the product by our ROC (Robotic Operations Center) team, and even customers showcasing how they use Rewst in their business.

We don’t have dedicated managers and we don’t put people in charge who don’t know how to write code themselves. We’re a relatively flat organization that prioritizes talented engineers who want to take charge. We see management, rules, and performance metrics as roadblocks to creativity and innovative thinking. We expect engineers to adhere to a single rule: create value for the organization. We tell you the problem, provide some constraints or example scenarios, and expect you to work with product management and stakeholders to craft the right solution and maximize the value to the business.
