If you’re like us, you agree that open source software is a wonderful and unique gift that the community of software developers across the world have given to each other. At FOSSA, we want to proliferate its usage with our software supply chain management platform that helps our customers know what licenses, vulnerabilities, and dependencies go into their software as they utilize open source software packages. And we won’t rest until all companies, big and small, love and feel as comfortable with using open source as we are.
FOSSA is a rapidly growing series-B company with a truly distributed team. While our roots are in San Francisco, our growing team has members in several countries across many time zones. We’re always working to find the perfect balance of effective approaches to distributed work, while maintaining the direct personal connections that help us work better together and love our jobs.

What We Do
Open Source has become the critical supplier for modern software companies, changing everything about how people think about their code. FOSSA builds the infrastructure for modern teams to be successful with open source.
FOSSA's flagship product helps teams track the open source used in their code and automate license scanning and compliance. Since then, over 7,000 open source projects (Kubernetes, Webpack, Terraform, ESLint) and companies (Uber, Ford, Zendesk, Motorola) rely on FOSSA's tools to ship software. If you are in the software industry today, you're now using code that runs FOSSA.
