We are the people behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, WordPress VIP, Jetpack, Tumblr, and more. We believe in making the web a better place, and democratizing publishing and commerce for all.

We're a distributed company with more than 1800 Automatticians in 75+ countries speaking 90+ different languages. Our common goal is to democratize publishing and e-commerce.

We believe in Open Source and the vast majority of our work is available under the GPL.

We're improving diversity, equity, and inclusion in the tech industry. At Automattic, we want people to love their work and show respect and empathy to all. We welcome differences and strive to increase participation from traditionally underrepresented groups. Our DEI committee involves Automatticians across the company and drives grassroots change. For example, this group has helped facilitate private online spaces for affiliated Automatticians to gather and helps run a monthly DEI People Lab series for further learning. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is a priority at Automattic, though our dedication influences far more than just Automatticians: We make our products freely available and translate our products into and offer customer support in numerous languages. We require unconscious bias training for our hiring teams and ensure our products are accessible across different bandwidths and devices.
