About Katana
Running a business doesn’t have to be complicated, and we’re here to prove it. We’re on a mission to create loveable software that’s easy and delightful to use and makes complex tasks easy.
The Katana Story
Past
Before a single line of code was written, our co-founders Kristjan and Priit raised $700,000 from investors with a 10-slide presentation in April 2017.
With the help of two developers and a designer, they built the very first prototype a month later. And by the end of the year, Katana went live, and welcomed its first paying customers in early 2018.
Present
Since those humble beginnings, Katana evolved dramatically, becoming a cloud inventory platform, offering built-in inventory, production, and reporting features to give you an end-to-end inventory management solution for modern businesses.
From our HQ in Tallinn, with the help of staff across North America, Europe, and New Zealand, we’re helping businesses use the best software available for every element of their business with Katana, uniting them all in a single platform.
Future
Our product may evolve, but our mission remains the same — to empower businesses around the world by providing them with the tools and resources they need to flourish.
Businesses should be able to use software when they need it, without losing key data or seeing their numbers go out of sync.
