What Baddies in Tech does

Baddies in Tech (BiT) is a privately held, founder-led career development community and platform for women of color working in technology. Founded in 2019 and operating as a New York LLC, the company operates a free + premium membership model: a Free Baddie tier provides Discord access, newsletters, and essential career resources, while Baddie+ Membership is priced at $350/year (or $99/quarter) and unlocks full event access, mentorship, the content Vault, member directory, and partner perks. Beyond individual membership, BiT runs a B2B employer line through its Job Board, Resume Bank (Recruiter Membership), and event sponsorships targeting companies seeking diverse tech talent.

The product portfolio centers on a web-based member portal integrated with Discord, plus a stack of programmatic offerings: BaddieCon (annual flagship conference, with the 2025 edition AI-themed and an Atlanta AI Edge Summit scheduled for September 2026), Glow Together Sister Circles (virtual monthly mentorship groups), Spark Chats (small-group mentorship with senior WOC leaders from Yahoo, Nasdaq, Warner Bros. Discovery, Reddit, Meta, and others), The Vault (content library of workshops and templates), Glow Baddie resume/cover letter templates, and Career Coaching. AI is layered into the experience through Jack (generative AI that auto-crafts resumes/cover letters and applies to curated roles) and Career Companion (AI-powered career-leverage intelligence). Payments run via Stripe; member login via Google and Facebook OAuth.

Revenue is generated across four streams: recurring Baddie+ subscriptions, employer-paid job postings and Resume Bank access, event ticket sales ($175–$249 GA for BaddieCon), and partner perks/affiliate referrals. Employer-side customers include Amazon, Yahoo, Uber, Accenture Federal Services, Warner Bros. Discovery, Reddit, Meta, Mastercard, JPMorgan Chase, TD Bank, Intuit, Equitable, Morning Brew, and People Inc. Scale signals include 6,000+ Discord members, 16,000+ newsletter subscribers, 120,000+ combined social followers, and operations across NYC, DC, Atlanta with virtual global reach. The team is small (1–10 employees), no external venture funding is disclosed, and there is no evidence of M&A or public-market activity.
