Open source for a better world

Open since day one

RStudio (now Posit) was founded in 2009 with the vision of creating high quality open-source software for data scientists. We’ve grown exponentially over time but our culture remains unchanged. We invest heavily in open-source development, education, and the community with the goal of serving knowledge creators 100 years from now.

Our Charter

We want Posit to serve a meaningful public purpose and we run the company for the benefit of our customers, employees, and the community at large. That’s why we’re designated as a Public Benefit Corporation. As a Certified B Corp, we must meet the highest verified standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Our directors and officers have a fiduciary responsibility to address social, economic, and environmental needs while still overseeing our business goals.

Our People

The code we live by

Open

We aim for transparency in the way we make and share tools—and the way we manage our company. We believe that great ideas come from anywhere—and that we’re better together.

Resourceful

Intelligence is more than ‘book smart’ or ‘tech smart.’ It’s a mindset. To better serve everyone in our community we value continuous learning, curiosity, and emotional intelligence.

Generous

We collaborate with our customers, the community, and each other with open hearts and minds. And we believe the effort, capital, and care we put out into the world benefits everyone in the end.

Lasting

We want to remain an independent company for the long term. We make investments with this goal in mind, starting with our people. Our benefits programs are designed to ensure the long-term wellbeing of our teams.
