In a LinkedIn post, Founder Cori Fain shared the inspiration behind starting Moxi.
“For the mom who is over-stimulated and needs a day of peace, for the parent who missed the big meeting because their sitter canceled at the last minute, for every caregiver who would pursue something new if only they had the extra support, we see you.
We are you. Moxi was built for you.”
