Kaleidos is a values-driven open-source startup that created Penpot, a design and prototyping platform for product teams. Penpot is the first Open Source design and prototyping platform for cross-domain teams. Penpot is a web-based tool and is not dependent on any operating system. It is also the first open-source design-to-code platform, aiming to bridge the gap between designers and developers to facilitate a smoother workflow.
The company's business model is what they call the "Open Nitrate Model". While the specifics of this model are not fully detailed in the provided information, it is positioned as a unique open-source business model. Penpot is a free tool, and the company plans to ensure its sustainable development through a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription model. This suggests that while the core platform is free and open-source, there will likely be premium features or services offered for a fee.
Penpot's target clients are product teams, which include both designers and developers. The platform is designed to enable them to work in unison to build scalable software experiences. By being open-source, Penpot aims to foster a community of contributors and users who can help improve the platform. The company operates in the software development and design tools market, competing with other design and prototyping tools.
