Multiplayer Raises $3M in Funding

-

Multiplayer, a NYC-based provider of a collaborative tool for teams that work on distributed software, emerged from stealth with $3M in funding.

The round was led by Bowery Capital with participation from Okapi Venture Capital, Mitch Wainer, co-founder of DigitalOcean, and Edith Harbaugh, founder of LaunchDarkly.

Started in 2023 by Steph and Thomas Johnson, Multiplayer is a collaborative tool for teams that work on distributed software. The tool brings together all the elements of backend software development in one platform to allow teams to both visualize their system and work on it collaboratively.

Key features include:

  • AI Assist generates everything teams need for distributed software, including: system architectures, APIs, service implementations, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), documentation and more
  • Visualizes system architectureĀ at the highest level and enables detailed views of specific features and changes in real time
  • Communicates design intent by pulling together multiple document types  (i.e. platform diagrams, APIs, sketches, rich-text docs, source code) for a feature
  • Enables formal design reviewsĀ and allows for feedback from all parties (team leads, developers, QA, CTO’s DevOps, etc.) before moving to implementation
  • Facilitates real time team collaborationĀ among distributed teams (akin to Figma but for the back end)
  • Enables version controlĀ + branching
  • Ensures that system architecture will be recordedĀ in a shared, company-owned space where the architecture can be maintained and the evolution of the platform is retained
  • Tames the SaaS sprawlĀ by integrating with source control providers, SaaS and cloud providers and provides a centralized system dashboard for teams

Multiplayer will be available as a public beta this fall.
