Our Story
How it started (2021)
xdge was founded in the pre-GPT era with a simple thesis: fast-growth companies needed a better way to organize knowledge and make it instantly useful. We began by building internal tools focused on knowledge structure, collaboration, and organizational clarity, laying the foundation for what would become xdge.
When GPT Arrived (2022)
The arrival of GPT reshaped the entire landscape. We paused our original roadmap and rebuilt xdge around generative intelligence, launching the first versions of Search and Assist, and designing a platform centered on real-time reasoning, context understanding, and cross-tool orchestration.
Where We Are Now (Today)
Today, xdge is the only platform that brings together deep search, workflow automation & a breadth of productivity tools into one unified system. Teams of every size use xdge to turn scattered information into structured, discoverable, and actionable intelligence or workflows, instantly.
Mission & Vision
We are on a mission to create a workplace where every employee feels deeply connected to their team, their purpose, and the work that matters. We imagine a future where work simply works. Where knowledge flows effortlessly, workflows feel intuitive, and decisions reach the right people at exactly the right time. In this world, employees stop fighting complexity and start shaping meaningful outcomes. The workplace becomes not just more productive, but more human.
