Thumbtack

Paws up for National Pet Day! 🐾 Thumbtack's virtual-first working model means plenty of purr-fect moments with our pets. Think lap naps during meetings and extra playtime throughout the day. We even offer pet insurance because we're serious about their wellbeing. Happy National Pet Day to all our furry (and not-so-furry) friends!

Despite the real estate market slowdown, Thumbtack is stronger than ever. It was great chatting with Steven Melendez at Fast Company about the business is doing better than ever and how AI is going to reshape our experience. 2024 was our best year yet, with revenue hitting nearly $400 million, up 27%. And our best is still to come. Our goal has always been to make it easy to find and hire pros, and we’re just getting started leveraging AI to reimagine that experience.
