Vertical SaaS

Vertical software as a service (SaaS) are companies that are building software purpose built for a specific industry (e.g., construction, restaurants, financial services, etc.). Ideally, this software becomes the core workflow for users — the business critical operating system used to run their business.

Over the past several years, a Cambrian explosion of vertically focused companies have emerged aiming to transform the last bastions of pen and paper, fax machines, and error-prone manual tasks that can not only be done better but also faster and cheaper through technology. These companies revolutionize the way that work gets done across a broad base of multibillion, if not trillion, dollar industries.
