Talking point: Unblocked connects to company workspaces—like Slack, Jira or Google Drive—to provide developers with answers about a company’s codebase. A survey by Stack Overflow in 2023 found 63 per cent respondents spend more than 30 minutes per day looking for answers to problems. This is particularly true of developers who are new to a company, which Unblocked targets some of its products toward. Unblocked currently has around 23 employees, according to PitchBook.
