Paperform remote jobs and company guide

Paperform was founded with a vision: to facilitate a world where small business owners spend less time on work and more time on the things that matter.

Every idea starts with a problem. For our founders, Dean and Diony, it was simple: they loved their work, but were sick of it being replaced by tedious, boring, busywork. Spending hours sitting in meetings, responding to emails, filling in spreadsheets. Diony ran into her fair share of this as a Manager at Google, and as a web dev for a startup, Dean was no stranger to this kind of thing either.

Now, maybe it was Dean’s degree in philosophy, which made him particularly aware of the futility of it all. Maybe it was that, like most of us, the mere sight of the Excel icon made him break out in hives. Either way, he knew there must be a better way to do things—which is when he realised he could set up forms to automate these processes, and cut down on all this so-called ‘work’.

As it turned out he was good at it. Really good at it. And his bosses loved him, because these forms let computers do the heavy lifting and freed up time for them to do other things. Things that mattered. That meant something. Playing with their kids. Taking their dogs to the beach. Going to salsa lessons. Avoiding the office. Watching The Office. For Dean and Diony, it meant they could spend more time together.
