About Circle
Circle is the world’s leading community platform for creators and brands.
Our mission is to help the world build transformational communities.
We have three core beliefs:
- Creators transform individuals and change the world.
- In the coming years, millions of new creators will follow their life’s calling.
- The best way for creators to thrive is for them to build transformational communities.
Circle was founded by Sid Yadav (CEO), Rudy Santino, and Andrew Guttormsen in early 2020. Circle's founders were formerly on the founding team of Teachable, which has helped entrepreneurs generate over $1 billion and was acquired for $250 million.
We've raised $30m from 30+ world-class investors, including the founders/CEOs of companies like Zapier, Hubspot, GitHub, Superhuman, Teachable, Gumroad, ConvertKit, Morning Brew, Adobe, Codecademy, Front, Framer, and ProductHunt.
We’re fully remote international 🗺️
Circle is a fully remote company of 130+ team members based out of 30+ countries in the world. We strive to find exceptional talent around the world, set them up to do the best work of their lives, and in turn, create a meaningful impact in their own lives. We don't track hours, but we do manage for high expectations very closely. We collaborate across time zones, are highly async when possible, and like to document a lot. Twice a year, we bring the whole company together for incredible company retreats in beautiful places around the world.
Our most recent retreat was in Bodrum, Turkey (March, 2024):
