Dworkz is a San Francisco based UI/UX design and development firm for data-driven B2B SaaS companies.

We congratulate our client Cellanome on the successful closing of its Series B financing today.

Cellanome has developed a powerful new system that enables scientists to dynamically isolate, probe, and characterize live cells. Using a combination of computer vision, AI-driven analysis, and proprietary “CellCages” — semipermeable, reversible enclosures formed on demand — live cells can be observed in action and studied longitudinally over time. Scientists can not only watch how individual cells move, signal, or differentiate in real-time, but can also directly connect that behavior back to each specific cell’s genes, proteins, and metabolites. This linkage of functional biology to multiomic biology is a game-changer.

Gett, the taxi-hailing app, which was formerly known as Get Taxi, has been acquired by Pango, a parking payments app. Pango is paying $175 million for Gett, which is close to the valuation that was reported by "Globes" in March. This acquisition is only slightly above the fair value of $160 million, which is attributed to Gett by its largest shareholder, Swedish investment fund VNV Global.

We have been working with Gett from the very beginning when the founder of the company Dave Waiser came to us with his idea literally on the napkin. We designed Gett's first two releases for passengers and drivers. The company quickly grew, and it needed an internal design department.

When the internet was still trying to find its identity, Dworkz was founded on the belief that innovative ideas and engaging interactive experiences created with skill and creativity would propel our clients' businesses forward.

Our ideals and commitment to our work, team, and clients have remained consistent since our establishment in 2004. This is still true today. As we have expanded our skills and experience, we can make an even greater impact on helping our clients build streamlined, user-friendly software that drives adoption and distinguishes their brands.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has helped to uphold our ideals, including our team, clients, friends, and supporters. The people around us continue to inspire us, and we are motivated to tackle the challenges ahead.

Cheers! 🥂
