Our storyAs a user, giving feedback was always disappointing. We're setting out to change that. With roots from Facebook, building product is our bread and butter. We're using what we're great at, building great products, to have the impact we want to have on the world.
Our teamCanny’s team is small and nimble. We are fully bootstrapped and we work remotely. Individually, we are masters at our own craft. Together, we make a killer combo; laser-focused on creating the best product experiences and helping others do the same.
