On a mission to bring the power of AI
to business owners
We believe every business owner deserves enterprise-grade customer support without the complexity or cost.
The millions of local businesses handling support from shared inboxes shouldn't have to choose between drowning in emails or hiring expensive help.
Hoop puts an AI support team directly in your support inbox, learning your business from day one and answering customer inquiries in record time. We give owners their time back to focus on growing their businesses, while still providing top-tier service.
Our vision is a world where every local shop, service provider, and small business can deliver world-class support that drives growth, not stress. Because when small businesses thrive, communities flourish.
Built by the team behind Trello
All three co-founders spent over a decade building Trello together, from startup to Atlassian acquisition in 2017. They built one of the most successful project management tools in history, all while growing a remotely distributed team with a strong company culture. After staying through 2022, they reunited to build Hoop.
