A: HiPPO stands for "Highest Paid Person's Opinion"

A: We actually love the animal.  Squeezing a HiPPO helps relieve stress when a feature decision is made on the basis of opinion alone. The "Highest Paid" part of the acronym refers to people who have final responsibility for product feature decisions. We want those important decision makers to have access to high quality data. The Experimentation Platform uses one of the best methods ever devised to gather high quality data—the controlled experiment.

A: For one, you can come join our team!  Check out our listings in our jobs page.   Or if you're lucky to catch one of us in various industry conferences, we might be carrying them with us.  Wherever you see the ExP logo on the top left, you can find a toy HiPPO.  We don't leave home without them.
