We started Knock to solve problems we faced ourselves as consumers: the process of renting an apartment sucked. It was disorganized, time consuming, and frustrating. It seemed landlords were stuck in the past and didn’t understand how to use technology to their advantage. But the problems and solutions seemed obvious to us, and we had a vision for what a better experience should be. After validating our insights with a few early customers (who became investors) we got to work partnering with real estate companies to deliver on turning that vision into reality.

Five years later, we have helped our property management customers find homes for millions of renters. We’ve developed an industry-defining SaaS platform that automates marketing, accelerates sales, lifts customer retention, and delivers critical business insights that help our customers operate their business. Our customers trust us to deliver the consumer experiences and business applications that are essential to their bottom line. The proof is in our 10x revenue growth over the past two years, in addition to our numerous industry awards. In March of 2019 we announced we raised a $10m Series A round to continue to accelerate growth and product development, led by Madrona Venture Group: https://www.geekwire.com/2019/madrona-leads-10m-round-knock-crm-communications-service-apartment-landlords/

The real estate industry is continuing to undergo an incredible technology transformation, and Knock is one of the companies driving innovation and shaping the way an entire vertical works. But even with a number of accomplishments in our past, we continue to push our vision forward and build the solutions of the future. We are on a mission to modernize the way property management companies run their businesses, by delivering the tools and insights to optimize all aspects of their sales and marketing operations. Practical uses for applied machine learning, connected IoT devices, and AI powered communication technology are all in our future here at Knock. It's a fun space with interesting problems, and provides all kinds of opportunities to get creative and build solutions our customers simply haven't seen or thought of before. If this sounds exciting, we want to hear from you!
