Netlify is the platform that taught the modern web to ship fast. Founded in 2014 by Mathias Biilmann and Christian Bach, it pioneered the Jamstack architecture and a Git-driven workflow that turned every push into a production deploy. Today, more than five million developers and companies like Twilio, Unilever, and Peloton run on Netlify's global edge network - and the company is reinventing itself again around AI agents that ship code on behalf of humans.
Mathias (Matt) Biilmann Christensen is a Danish-born entrepreneur who went from music journalist to Silicon Valley CEO. He co-founded Netlify in 2014, coined the term 'Jamstack' that reshaped modern web development, and most recently introduced 'Agent Experience (AX)' — the idea that software must be designed not just for humans but for the AI agents that increasingly act on their behalf. Netlify now serves 35 million+ websites and raised $212M total including a $105M Series D in 2021.
