“With Tango, teams can rebalance and power the critical role of documentation and Process”

“We are honored to earn our spot on Fast Company’s Next Big Things in Tech list,” said Ken Babcock, CEO and Co-Founder of Tango. “With the rise of remote work, the normalization of job hopping, and the speed of technological innovation, companies have been laser focused on their people and technology—from trying to recruit and retain talent to building bigger tech stacks.
