Our take

Orb founders Morales and Grover worked together as engineering leaders at Asana for five years, and during their time at the company they witnessed a plethora of changes to pricing and packing. The major changes were a burden not only for the financing team, but for the engineers themselves.
Realising they wanted more flexibility over how software-as-a-service (SaaS) products are billed and monetised, the pair developed Orb. It's a cloud-based software platform helping businesses create and manage pricing models, with a specific focus on helping businesses that are seeking flexible pricing options for their customers, such as subscription-based services or pay-as-you-go models.

Orb is backed by a number of investment organisations as well as founders and executives at the forefront of enterprise software. It expanded its team in 2023 and, in 2024, enjoyed $24 million in funding to accelerate its mission. It's now well-equipped to fulfil its vision of leveraging software so companies can be at their most effective.
