To help coders help each other become better coders by sharing their knowledge with one another.

Stack Overflow is one of the 50 most popular websites worldwide: a Q&A style forum for developers, gamified with upvotes, downvotes, and badges, with over 14 million registered users and upwards of 21 million questions. It's grown to become a go-to resource in the community.
The site has proven a good springboard into providing other knowledge sharing services too - most notable among which is the company’s teams platform. This, along with advertising and jobs listings make for a strong revenue model that saw the company valued at well over $1B when it was acquired back in 2021.
This pricey acquisition means Stack Overflow has a secure buffer it can use to expand. This seems likely to take the form of growing its global product audience so it can boost revenue - as things stand, its teams platform is used mainly in the US. If Stack Overflow can get a foothold in developing countries like India and Brazil, it could continue its strong history of impressive growth.
