Company Description

Otter is leading the way as the #1 waiver creation system for liability waivers for non-profits and the guiding industry.

We are a young, international, and entrepreneurial start-up who are passionate about shaping the future of our forests. Every year the U.S. cuts down 17 million trees to produce paper for printing and writing. 

We love trees so we decided to build a company around digitizing paper and planting a tree for every tree we save. Otter is built for the small business owners that can’t afford the systems out there currently because of price.
