Who We Are:
Cotiss is not just another software company. Though we’re in our early stages, our mission is bold: be the worlds most used vendor platform for critical industries.

Our vision became clear: to help the real world to buy. These are the people that enable us to travel, keep us safe and connect us to each other. We are dedicated to empowering them to thrive in a sustainable and modern way. Where these organizations choose to spend their money is the way they can make the biggest impact on the world - it means better water, better roads, better outcomes.
We’re backed by some of the best investors in the world including Blackbird Ventures (investor into Canva, SafteyCulture, Culture Amp), 645 Ventures (Order, Fiscal Note), GTM fund (Vanta, Pocus, Munity) and Icehouse Ventures (Halter, Partley, Tracksuit).
