Algolia’s flexible workplace model is designed to empower all Algolians to fulfill our mission to power search and discovery with ease.

Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.
