About us
Mudstack is building the next generation asset management and collaboration platform for artists, developers, and producers. We shorten development times by improving communication and collaboration across all members of the team, encourage risk-taking and creativity by ensuring no work is ever lost, and foster the creation of community by opening up the development process to a global audience.
