company.

dear friend,

open source is the foundation of all modern software. every app, website, and system we use today is built on open source. it is the most important driver of global GDP growth, powering innovation and businesses worldwide.

but building and maintaining open source is not easy. for open source to thrive, we need a sustainable model. that’s where commercial open source software (coss) can come in: one of the best ways to create open, future-proof software while ensuring long-term success.

coss.com is the new holding company of cal.com, the pioneers of open source scheduling infrastructure and cal.com continues to be the 'google search' of our alphabet.

our mission is to build a home for amazing open source projects, giving them the support they need to grow and succeed.

for developers we are building the coss stack, a one line npm install @coss package that includes everything you need to build your application, from email, sms, calendar APIs, scheduling, video conferencing, notifications and more.

to achieve that, we are partnering up with the best-in-class coss companies in the space to offer a unified infrastructure API, react package and a single .env environment key: COSS_KEY=ITSTIMETOBUILD

think of this as react-on-rails, but with a commercial service attached.

let us run the infrastructure, so you can focus on writing code.

open source is the future. and with coss, we’re making sure that future is bright.

and who knows… maybe one day you can purchase $COSS on your favourite stack stock exchange.

if you are interested in coss.com, consider joining the early access waitlist or apply for our open positions.

best,
