Jouke Waleson - Founder & CTO

Hands-on software leader for 15 years, and I still love software. As Fred Brooks said 'The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure thought-stuff'. However, software systems are such a black box for many decision makers and even many engineers. Being a very creative person, I want to change that.

Over the last years I've been a software engineer, product manager, security consultant and a CTO. In all of those roles I would have loved to have a platform like Comper to help me rapidly understand the software landscape, or explain it to others. In a way, I started building Comper for myself, and then it turned out to be useful for a lot of people.

Juan Uijtewaal - Cofounder

As a former founder and COO, I've seen how technology drives a business - yet remains a black box for many decision-makers.

After experiencing the power of visual collaboration at Miro and Lucid, I'm building Comper to bring clarity to software - so teams can truly understand the bigger picture and collaborate on building the future.

Melanie L. Argento - CMO

I've spent the past 15+ years helping technology companies grow through moments of scale and change.

As a non-technical executive, I repeatedly ran into the same blind spot: decisions were being made on systems I couldn't truly see. Comper is the first product I've encountered that closes that gap. It turns complex codebases into something leaders and teams can actually understand, discuss, and act on together.
