About Cello

Cello is the leading referral automation platform designed specifically for modern SaaS and digital businesses. It enables companies to launch, manage, and scale both partner and user referral programs without manual overhead, harnessing the power of word-of-mouth marketing to accelerate business growth. The platform automates the entire referral lifecycle—from participant enrollment through reward distribution—while seamlessly integrating into existing business workflows. Trusted by industry leaders like Typeform and Fellow, Cello empowers growth teams to create viral loops that compound user acquisition and retention. Through AiDOOS, Cello deployments benefit from enhanced governance frameworks, optimized integration orchestration across marketing stacks, and scalability across multi-tenant environments. The platform's automation capabilities reduce operational friction, allowing teams to focus on strategy rather than program administration, ultimately creating a sustainable competitive advantage through referral-driven growth.
