Launchmetrics is the leading Brand Performance Cloud used by Fashion, Lifestyle and Beauty (FLB) executives to make smarter decisions around their branding efforts.

With over a decade of industry expertise, we have helped more than 1,200 customers create inspiring, impactful and measurable experiences.

THE TEAM

We are a team of passionate engineers distributed across the world, always eager to learn new things. We are building state-of-the-art modern applications and scale it on the cloud. We innovate to solve customers problems, focusing on high-performance implementations without neglecting the user experience.

We recently moved our Product and Tech teams to a pod model:

A pod is a small group, 1 to 4 people, that owns a single mission end to end: from scoping and building through cleaning, enablement and watching adoption. Pods form around a mission and dissolve when it's done. Everyone is a pod owner, from the most junior person to the most senior, because ownership is the point.

Your domain is your product-area home, the part of our software suite you know best. Pods change with every mission; your craft and your domain don't.
