Summary

Bubble, a no-code platform that enables users to build web products without extensive coding knowledge, has raised its first round of financing totaling $6.25M. The investment is led by SignalFire and Neo¹, with additional backing from prominent entrepreneurs such as Nas, the founders of Warby Parker and Harry's, and New York investors BoxGroup and ThirdKind. After seven years of bootstrapping, Bubble aims to leverage its technology to open the industry to a broader audience, growing its engineering team and expanding its infrastructure to become the primary platform for startup creation. The company has already achieved significant success, with over 230,000 apps built by more than 270,000 visual developers, and doubling revenue in 2018 without marketing efforts.
