Algolia’s social impact

When founding Algolia, we wanted to make sure that we shared the same values, and that we envisioned how we would work with each other and future team members in line with those values. We wanted to become a culture-first company and make culture the driver of our growth.

One of the values that drives us is Care. We care about what we do each day, we care about our impact on our customers’ success, we care about our impact on people’s lives, and we care about our impact on the society.

We have been fortunate to build an incredibly fast-growing business, and we consider it our responsibility to give back to the communities who made it possible, and to the society of which we are part. We are proud of the Algolians who suggested and implemented many of the initiatives described on this page. To them, and to all of you who contribute, thank you!
