The Team Behind Keel

Operators who built the tools they wished existed.

Keel was founded in 2021 by three former executives from Echo—Europe's fastest growing online pharmacy, later acquired by Pharmacy2U. As CEO, CTO, and CPO at Echo, the founders built custom software to run operations shipping 50,000 medicines to 600,000 customers daily, scaling the business to $130 million in annual revenue. They experienced first-hand how legacy software couldn't keep pace with rapid growth, so they built the solution they wished had existed. Headquartered in Altrincham, Cheshire, and backed by $6 million in seed funding from leading European investors Earlybird and LocalGlobe, Keel is on a mission to empower operators everywhere with flexible, powerful tools they truly own.
