S8 Bonus: The $45M 'GitHub for Docs' Experiment: Engineering Git-Style Version Control for Asynchronous Business Teams with Adam Nathan, Co-Founder & CEO of Almanac
Aug 24, 2023 · Season 8 · 31 min
The Github for document collaboration
Adam Nathan was born and raised in New York. His parents were small business owners, his brother is entrepreneur, so starting a business was just in his blood. He has always been interested in complex systems, working in the government and in the airline industry. Outside of tech, he is a big skier, cyclist and works out every day. He's also a big reader, and reads 60-70 books a year.
Adam found himself inundated with messages and emails, all surrounding the workflow of reviewing and approving documentation. Keying off what Github accomplished for developers, he wanted to became a centralized, beautiful place, for business users to collaborate on documents.
This is the creation story of Almanac.
