As founders, we take a great deal of pride in how far Jar has come as a company, not just in terms of the product and service we have built, but because of the many incredible people who have trusted us and joined us on our journey.

We know that the next great idea can come from anyone and we strive to foster the kind of environment where those ideas get carried to execution without losing their greatness.
