Oyster × Lokalise
Oyster x Lokalise: Hiring across 45 countries without a single new legal entity
142 hires across 45 countries in 30 months
Geographically constrained to globally distributed
Why it works
The story earns its New Capability tag because Lokalise could not legally or practically hire in 45 countries before using an EOR. The shared-mission framing, two companies both removing barriers in their respective domains, is a genuine structural parallel that makes the vendor fit feel earned rather than promotional. However, the piece is light on hard business outcomes beyond headcount stats, which limits its evidential weight.
Steal this
The shared-mission parallel: articulating how vendor and customer solve the same problem in adjacent domains makes the fit story feel logical rather than sales-driven, and gives the customer a compelling reason to recommend the vendor on values, not just features.
