Our Journey So far
It started in 2011 when Ritesh Arora and Nakul Aggarwal set out to launch a website for their tech consulting business. Nakul built the website in two days, but when Ritesh had to test it, things got out of hand. The website had to be tested for compatibility across different devices, operating systems, and browsers.
It was a tedious process and it was slowing them down, as always. They decided to take a quick look at the market to understand the problem better, and they found out that they were not alone. The struggle with cross-compatibility testing was universal. This realization gave birth to BrowserStack.
