The purchase was [Makerpad]( for an undisclosed amount (and wonderfully, the ball got rolling with a [tweet]( 🐦 that got noticed from Zapier's CEO). Makerpad is a no-code tool and community — a place where you can learn to build without code, then build things, and get hired. Congratulations to Makerpad's founder, Ben Tossell, who is a former Product Hunt employee 🥳 . Zapier has been an early no-code success. Despite only having one round of fundraising in 2012, it has managed to achieve a [$5 billion valuation](, reaching $10M in annual recurring revenue last summer. Now they’ll have a new built-in community with Makerpad, too.
