The next milestone for Tailscale

Tailscale, a company focused on creating secure and simple VPN solutions, has secured $12 million in Series A funding, led by Accel with participation from Heavybit and Uncork Capital, to accelerate its growth in response to the increased demand from the shift to remote work. The company's product, designed to offer a BeyondCorp-style VPN without the complexity of traditional enterprise solutions, caters to both individual users and companies, making it particularly appealing during the COVID-19 pandemic when remote work surged. Tailscale allows users to connect devices privately and securely, facilitating tasks like setting up a home surveillance system without the need for third-party services. With a rapid increase in users since its official launch in April, the platform now welcomes over 10,000 nodes each month, driven by a community of passionate users who often introduce Tailscale to their workplaces. The company continues to expand, inviting interested individuals to try out their product and join their growing team.
