VSCO

VSCO is a photography platform founded in 2011. It provides editing tools, portfolio sites, client workflow tools and community features, serving photographers from those taking their first paid job to established practitioners. The company operates worldwide, and its stated mission is to narrow the gap between the creative life photographers want and the tools, confidence and community available to them.

The product range is organised around the working life of a photographer. Editing tools are aimed at developing craft; portfolio sites enable photographers to display work and build a business; client workflow tools support the running of that business; and community experiences are designed to bring photographers together to learn, connect and collaborate. The company describes itself as focused narrowly on photographers' needs across every stage of their journey.

Technical work spans photo editing software, mobile and web application development, portfolio and site-building tools, client workflow tools, community platform technology and scalable systems engineering. The engineering emphasis is on building reliable, thoughtful systems capable of serving a global user base; the company frames its task as building technology that powers creativity at scale.

VSCO states that it was founded to build a product for creative professionals. Its culture signals include a mission-driven orientation, investment in community experiences, and a team described as passionate about designing tools and solutions for photographers. No team size or funding figures are disclosed.
