Netlify

Netlify is a web development platform founded in 2014 by Mathias Biilmann and Christian Bach, headquartered in San Francisco, providing an all-in-one workflow for building, deploying, and scaling modern web applications with continuous deployment from Git, global CDN distribution, serverless functions, form handling, split testing, and edge logic, serving over four million developers and teams at companies including Twilio, Mattel, Verizon, and Unilever for production web applications and marketing sites. The Git-based workflow connects to GitHub and GitLab repositories, automatically building and deploying on every commit with deploy previews for pull requests, atomic deploys that instantly switch traffic to new versions with one-click rollback, and deploy notifications through Slack, email, and webhooks. The global edge network serves content from over one hundred points of presence with automatic asset optimization including image resizing, CSS and JavaScript minification, and Brotli compression. The serverless functions support JavaScript, Go, and Rust with automatic API routing, background functions for long-running tasks, and scheduled functions for cron jobs. The form handling collects submissions from static HTML forms without backend code, with email notifications, spam filtering, and webhook integrations. The split testing enables A/B testing and branch-based feature flagging. The identity service provides authentication with GitHub, Google, email, and SSO. The analytics provides server-side and client-side metrics without cookies. Designed for web developers, frontend teams, and marketing departments.
