I noticed something striking about companies using Ashby: they're heavily engineering-driven organizations that treat internal operations with the same rigor they apply to their products. The clustering of incident management tools (Incident.io, PagerDuty), compliance infrastructure (Vanta), and internal productivity systems (Golinks) tells me these are tech companies building serious, regulated products where uptime and reliability matter deeply.

The pairing of Ashby with Incident.io and PagerDuty is particularly revealing. Companies don't invest in multiple incident management layers unless they're running 24/7 services with real customer impact from downtime. When I see this alongside Vanta, it suggests they're selling to enterprise customers who demand SOC 2 compliance and security certifications. These aren't scrappy startups moving fast and breaking things. They're mature enough to need formal compliance but still growing fast enough to need modern recruiting tools. Golinks appearing so frequently reinforces this: it's a tool that only makes sense when your team is large enough that knowledge management becomes a real problem.

The full picture reveals companies in that critical growth phase between Series B and Series D. They're product-led in their DNA (hence the engineering operations focus) but increasingly selling to enterprises, which explains the compliance tooling. They likely have 100-500 employees, technical products, and engineering teams that represent 40-50% of headcount. The presence of UnifyGTM suggests they're also building out sophisticated go-to-market operations to support enterprise sales motion.

I analyzed these companies and found that Ashby's typical customer operates at the intersection of technology and transformation. These aren't just software companies. They're building infrastructure that didn't exist before: AI platforms that automate complex workflows, fintech companies creating new payment rails, healthtech firms redesigning care delivery, and deep tech startups tackling problems in defense, climate, and robotics. Whether it's "the operating system for benefits" (Noyo), "AI-powered demo platform" (Reprise), or "next-generation payment platform" (Payabli), these companies are fundamentally rebuilding how industries operate.

These companies cluster heavily in the growth stage. My analysis shows significant Series A through Series C representation, with funding rounds typically ranging from $10M to $150M. Employee counts concentrate in the 11-200 range, that critical scaling phase where hiring becomes make-or-break. Even the smaller teams (2-10 employees) often have YC backing or seed funding, indicating they're positioned for rapid growth. The mature outliers like Redis and Funding Circle (500+ employees) prove Ashby scales with customers long-term.
