I noticed that Nordlayer users are predominantly modern software companies building digital products, likely SaaS businesses operating with distributed or remote teams. The heavy presence of development infrastructure tools like Retool, Sentry, and Linear alongside security solutions like Cloudflare Zero Trust tells me these are tech-forward companies that prioritize both rapid product development and security. They're building software products while maintaining secure access for remote engineering teams.

The pairing of Nordlayer with Cloudflare Zero Trust is particularly revealing. These companies are implementing layered security approaches for distributed workforces, suggesting they have employees accessing sensitive systems from multiple locations. The extreme correlation with Linear and Retool points to engineering-heavy organizations that value modern, efficient tooling. Linear users tend to be fast-moving product teams, while Retool suggests they're building internal tools quickly. Sentry's presence confirms they're running production applications that require error monitoring and performance tracking.

The full picture suggests product-led growth companies in their scaling phase. They've moved past the earliest startup stage (they're investing in proper security infrastructure) but still prioritize developer velocity and operational efficiency. The presence of Jira Service Desk indicates they have customer support operations mature enough to require ticketing systems, while Wistia suggests they're creating video content for customer education or marketing. These aren't sales-led enterprise companies with massive go-to-market teams. They're likely product-led with self-service models supplemented by customer success teams.

I noticed NordLayer's customers span a remarkably diverse range of industries, but they share a common thread: they're primarily service-based businesses that depend heavily on distributed teams and digital operations. These aren't manufacturing plants or retail storefronts. They're software developers, accounting firms, healthcare technology companies, marketing agencies, professional services firms, and digital-first businesses. Many describe themselves as providing "end-to-end solutions," "innovative technology," or "expert services" to their clients.

Most appear to be in the scaling phase, what I'd call the "mature SMB" category. The majority employ between 11 and 200 people, with a sweet spot around 50- employees. They're past the scrappy startup phase but haven't reached enterprise scale. Many have been operating for 10-20 years and describe growth trajectories or expanding office locations. The funded companies typically show Series A or B rounds, not seed stage. They're established enough to have "offices in multiple cities" but small enough that security and IT infrastructure is still a hands-on concern.
