About us

Most people dream of being able to play an instrument – and at flowkey, we're dedicated to making that dream a reality. With our innovative app, we provide an easy and motivating way to learn to play the piano.

What sets us apart is not just our product – it's the journey we've taken together. Thanks to our early success and sustained profitability, we've been able to grow independently and foster a culture that truly reflects our values.

At flowkey, mutual respect, authenticity, and trust are at the heart of everything we do. We believe different perspectives drive creativity and innovation, which is why we celebrate our differences and offer equal opportunities for everyone. Our goal is to create an inspiring environment where both personal and professional growth are not only possible but actively encouraged.
