The Intuit mission in action
At Intuit, our mission is to power prosperity around the world. But we don’t just pay lip service to this idea. Our commitment to helping QuickBooks app developers thrive is evident in every tool we create, every support interaction, and every program we offer. We strive to empower developers to build innovative applications that serve the needs of millions of dedicated accountants and small to medium-sized businesses globally.
The Intuit Developer Growth Program
A standout example of our mission at work is the Intuit Developer Growth Program. Launched as a pilot in late 2022, this industry-leading initiative has evolved and continues to help developers amplify their marketing efforts, refine their apps, expand their customer base, and boost their app revenue. Participants who have completed the program sing its praises, highlighting these key benefits:
- Access to an exclusive network of accountants, experience design experts, solution architects, and go-to-market managers.
- A deeper understanding of their users’ perspectives.
- Actionable insights from shared app analytics that included connection trends, customer landscape, and customer product usage.
- Valuable app feedback and recommendations for improvement, leading to revised roadmaps.
