Glassfy
The business, the turning points, and the decisions behind them.
01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Glassfy was an Italian app revenue management platform that let mobile teams build, manage and grow subscription and in-app purchase offerings. Founded by Marco Pifferi (creator of the viral app Around Me), Alex Kudelka, Luca Garbolino and Fabrizio Bazzoni, it reduced the complexity of in-app payment infrastructure across app stores so publishers could focus on their core product.
