## **Why we spent $100K on a domain.**  
The story behind upgrading our domain, and what it says about where we're headed.

We've been running the company on joinwarp.com since we started. I still remember vividly when I hit purchase on that domain, a total of $12.99. It was the night before our YC batch started. I didn't have a logo. I didn't have a customer. I barely had a product.

Since then, that domain has processed over $500M in transactions. We've grown revenue 5x, two years in a row, on track for a third. Our team has tripled in just the last 4 months.

So today, we're upgrading the domain. Our customers trust us with one of the most critical pieces of their business infrastructure: their employee management. A 4-letter domain is worth it. We're here for the long-term.

This year, the foundation we spent two years building is compounding. Pipeline is the strongest it's ever been. We're signing customers faster than we can hire. Shipping new capabilities every single week.

## **Bigger team. Bigger ambition.**
