Unqork is a cloud computing and enterprise software company based in New York, NY that offers a no-code development platform-as-a-service (PaaS) for building enterprise applications. Unqork supports organizations in finance, insurance, healthcare, and government.[1]
History
Unqork was founded in 2017 by Gary Hoberman, who serves as the company's CEO.
In February 2020, the company completed a series B funding round of $131M.[2] In March, the New York City Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications used the Unqork platform to build a digital portal that would allow free meals to be delivered to New York City residents during the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] In August, Crain's New York Business reported that the company was one of New York City's fastest growing startups.[4] In October, Unqork announced that it had raised an additional $207 million in a Series C funding round led by accounts managed by BlackRock, Inc., bringing the company's valuation to more than $2 billion.[5]
In May 2021, Chicago's Department of Housing, in partnership with the Resurrection Project, used the Unqork platform to distribute rent relief funds to Chicago residents.[6][7]
Platform and services
Unqork's no-code platform allows enterprise clients to design applications and other digital solutions from an entirely visual interface.[1] The platform includes configurable components that enable users to build applications without code.[8]
The company's software includes a Marketplace featuring pre-built apps and third-party consultancy services, including integrations with software including SendGrid, Twilio, and DocuSign.[9]
