AI work management and workflow automation
monday.com builds an AI Work Platform for managing projects, customer relationships, service operations and software development. Its products include monday work management, monday CRM, monday service and monday dev. Teams organize work in customizable boards, connect workflows and automate repetitive tasks. monday vibe builds custom business apps, while Sidekick provides an AI assistant. Native agents can qualify leads, close support tickets and onboard employees under human supervision, using the platform’s existing permissions and governance.
Founded in 2012 by Roy Mann and Eran Zinman, who remain co-CEOs, monday.com launched its product in 2014. Its engineering approach centers on flexible, user-defined tables rather than fixed workflow schemas. mondayDB uses DuckDB for columnar reads, with separate read and write paths and board-specific database files synchronized from an external write-ahead log. This architecture supports sorting, filtering and aggregating changing workflow data without forcing every board into the same structure.
The company reported over 250,000 customers worldwide in 2026. It sells subscriptions priced by feature tier and user count, with AI credits powering specific tasks and additional credits available to purchase. In May 2026, monday.com completed the acquisition of substantially all OneAI assets for $14.1 million in cash to accelerate native voice AI capabilities.
