Our Team
We’re nice people. Except when playing Mario Kart. Then watch out.





Our History.
TubeBuddy launched in December 2014, but we have been building tools in the YouTube space for 16+ years now – since before it was owned by Google!

Our Motivation.
We report to you. We strive to keep you happy and help you succeed on YouTube; not to squeeze every last dollar out of you to satisfy an investor.

Our Mission.
Being a YouTuber is tough. Our mission is to build tools that help make you and the entire YouTube community a happier and more productive bunch.
