About Us

Pendulum empowers companies and governments to uncover, understand, and act on current and potential risks and opportunities contained within narratives. We are building a powerful, multi-medium, always-on narrative and community intelligence platform for our customers, while tackling one of society’s biggest problems - combating harmful mis- and disinformation. We are deeply inspired by our mission, motivated by solving hard technical problems, and obsessed with our customers.
Fulfilling our mission demands bringing together a team with a broad range of backgrounds and experiences. Diverse teams are the strongest teams because their plurality of experience enriches and expands the solution space and enriches decision-making. Diversity and inclusion are, therefore, core to our values and at the forefront of our hiring philosophy and day-to-day operations.
