What We Do
Boundless is a Series B technology company providing immigrants with the tools, information, and personalized support to navigate their immigration journey with confidence. We’re a team of immigrants and experts who have struggled with our own journeys through the complex, high-stakes U.S. immigration system. Just like millions of other families, we’ve had to choose between paying thousands of dollars in legal fees or spending months trying to figure out how to do everything ourselves. We knew there had to be a better way. That’s what we’re building, after hundreds of conversations with families, immigration lawyers, and government officials — a trusted partner and guide for your entire immigration journey.
Why Work With Us

To make a meaningful difference in the lives of immigrants, we think without bounds by reimagining the immigrant experience. We are building a culture that reinforces inclusion and belonging, not just for our employees, but also for our customers.
