Tide's mission is to save SMBs time and money so they can get back to doing what they love. SMBs are burdened by a myriad of business management tasks that are repetitive and time consuming. Incumbent solutions are complex, disjointed and rarely tailored for SMBs. Tide has created a connected business management platform, designed to tackle all SMB jobs to be done. Tide’s integrated platform is simple, intuitive, and a digital-first product that is easy to set-up in real-time.
