Our goal is to make every work day a great one
Our story
We believe work apps should do more than just work.
Starting as a budding suite within the Adaptavist portfolio, our apps rapidly gained popularity for solving everyday work problems on leading platforms like Atlassian, monday.com, and Slack.
And so, a new brand was born: Upscale—built on the idea that work tools should actually make your work day better. Backed by industry leader, The Adaptavist Group, we are a fast-growing company with our own identity and ambitions, keen to shape a new future of work.
Why Upscale? It means to make something better, bigger, and more powerful and that's exactly what we do. Our goal is to elevate your work and your day to new heights!
Our Mission
Work apps are often viewed as functional tools to get through the day. Not something you look forward to using.
But we see things differently.
We believe work apps should be as enjoyable as your favourite personal ones.
They should help you out, support your goals, and make your day easier, not eat away at your spirit.
That's why we've crafted a suite of apps that work like a dream with the platforms you already know and love. Our goal? Free you from tedious tasks and get you to greatness every day.
Our Values
At Upscale, our goal is clear: to bring our customers a helpful and enjoyable app experience every single time. Our core values play a big part in making this happen. Here’s why…
Customer-centric
At our core, we're all about you—our valued customers. We're obsessed with understanding what makes you tick, not in a creepy way, but in a genuinely curious way. Our aim is to craft apps that simplify your work, spark those "aha" moments, and unleash your full potential.
Thoughtful
We're dedicated to crafting apps that go beyond the basics, bringing you real value while keeping you, the human, at the heart of everything we do. Our measure for what we design and build is simple: does it make your day easier?
Value-first
We’re creators and innovators, always looking for ways to stay ahead and be at the forefront of the future workplace. So we explore, experiment, and embed our learnings, always striving to make our apps the best they can be.
