The team
Small, and specific about why.
Fuzzy runs lean on purpose. These are the people who decide what ships, what it claims, and what it refuses to store.
The founder
Built by someone it happened to.
“I saw his face. Two or three times a week, for 8 months.”
Kalie spent 14 years selling software to the most heavily regulated buyers in America. Then someone she met on a dating app turned out to be almost entirely invented, and none of that experience protected her. She went looking for a simple way for one person to confirm another is real, found it did not exist, and built Fuzzy.
She also hosts Just Lookin’ Out, a podcast about how scams work and how to spot them, built to help people and never to sell.
The people who build it
Technology and the law.
