About Middesk
Middesk makes it easier for businesses to work together.

Our platform helps companies across industries confidently verify business identities, onboard customers faster, and reduce risk at every stage of the customer lifecycle.

"Velocity" is the rate at which we effect realized value for our customers, not the rate at which we ship code. We believe that great products result when technical excellence and craft is combined with deep understanding of our customers and the problems we can help them solve. We’re a humble, self-motivated team that seeks to ship early and ship often; we pride ourselves with being willing to roll up our sleeves to solve even the messiest problems our customers present to us. Middesk Engineering is customer-first engineering.
