Ballpark is our answer to making research faster, easier and more accessible. The majority of people conducting research in companies aren't researchers - so let's create a platform that meets them where they are.
We want to build the 'Canva of research' and create a research platform that is visual, real-time and filled with pre-made templates, questions and tasks so that every team can get deeper insights that leads to better products.
Since our beta launch in 2023, we've added tons of new Enterprise customers like Monzo, Soldo, Guild, Honeybook and Vodafone.
In summer 2023, we raised a seed round from InReach, Haatch, Caffeinated Capital and Bungalow VC who have invested in amazing companies such as Notion, Soldo and Airtable.
Why join Ballpark? We're biased of course, but we have a super exciting stack that includes real-time collaboration, video streaming and data processing. Our engineering team is highly talented and tight-knit, working together to create a product that truly stands out. We have an amazing roster of customers who are actively providing feedback to help us improve the platform. The chance to attack an industry that is ready for change.

Excellent mentor who can elevate the skills and performance of their teammates through effective guidance and knowledge sharing.
