OutSystems is a Portuguese low-code development platform designed to assist organizations in creating, deploying, and managing omnichannel enterprise applications seamlessly.

Established in 2001 by Paulo Rosado in Lisbon, Portugal, OutSystems has evolved into a key contender within the enterprise software and digital transformation sectors.

In June 2018, the company attained unicorn status after securing $360 million in investment from KKR and Goldman Sachs. Subsequently, in February 2021, it raised an extra $150 million through a funding round co-led by Abdiel Capital and Tiger Global Management, which valued the company at $9.5 billion. Expanding its mobile development offerings, OutSystems acquired Ionic in November 2022.

Operating as a privately held firm based in Boston, Massachusetts, OutSystems focuses on its core product, the OutSystems platform. Additionally, it holds membership in the Consortium of IT Software Quality (CISQ).
