Back

Back is a Berlin-based employee experience and internal service platform that gives HR, IT, Finance, and Office teams one place to receive, automate, and resolve employee requests. It brings conversations from Slack, Microsoft Teams, and email into a single shared inbox, answers common questions with a self-service knowledge chatbot, and automates lifecycle journeys such as onboarding, offboarding, and leave with approvals, forms, and integrations. Founded in 2018 and backed by Point Nine and Seedcamp, Back is used by companies including Loom, Netlify, Choco, Pleo, Marley Spoon, and Statista. This profile was surfaced as a VC portfolio company and enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline; Back offers an API for custom integrations on select plans, but publishes no public developer portal, OpenAPI, or reference at time of enrichment.

Back is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Employee Experience, HR, Help Desk, and Internal Support.

Back’s developer surface includes pricing and 8 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/back: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Submit an artifact on GitHub — free → Manage your own listing — the Influence plan, $499/mo →
