Our Mission
Proudly based in the growing tech hubs of Cleveland and Chicago
Imagine how many more problems we can solve as a society if our greatest single accelerator, the development of software, is accelerated.
We started Bloomfilter with the aim of creating a more measurable and efficient software development process -- after seeing first-hand the negative impact that failed software development can have on people, communities and the world.
Since we began this journey, we keep being told this is a really hard problem to solve — the interesting problems always are. That’s the reason we have assembled a team with the experience to meet the ambition of the challenge. But we also keep being told that if we can just move the needle a little bit, it will create massive amounts of good in the world. That’s what gets us up in the morning and gets us so excited.

The name Bloomfilter reflects both our technological roots and our vision for the software development lifecycle (SDLC). A Bloom filter is a data structure known for efficiently filtering large datasets, detecting potential matches while never missing critical signals. Similarly, Bloomfilter’s SDLC process mining helps CTOs and CIOs sift through complex development processes, identifying potential issues early while ensuring nothing important is overlooked.
Our commitment to an OPEN SDLC—one that’s Observable, Predictable, Efficient, and Nimble—further embodies this idea. We provide clarity in complex environments, allowing teams to spot bottlenecks, forecast risks, and optimize workflows, all while staying agile.
With Bloomfilter, you can move through the SDLC with confidence, filtering out noise and focusing on what drives success.
