Who We Are
Pro Sound Effects is a founder-led, self-funded, small business that is a leading force in the industry.
A true passion for sound and its storytelling power is at the core of who we are and what we do, as our sounds show up in our favorite TV shows, films, games, clips, ads, and more. The excitement of hearing them never gets old. Never.

How We Work
We help creators bring their ideas to life through sound.
We’re “scrappy” (a.k.a. agile, creative, resourceful, adaptive), and at the same time “classy” (a.k.a. organized, purposeful, clear, efficient) and we’re proud of that. Our “Bennifer” name is obviously “Clappy” but we don’t go around saying that. We have little tolerance for bureaucratic bottlenecks, resistance to change, or voices left unheard. We are small by design, highly virtualized, and tech-savvy. Oh, and we’re a sh*t load of fun. Just ask any one of us.
We pioneered the remote workforce back in 2004, and our employees are trusted to design and optimize their days to leverage their best selves. We offer lots of freedom, balanced by dashboards, KPIs, OKRs, and a culture of accountability. Put simply: we don’t care when you do your work or where you do it from, as long as it meets or exceeds the expectations we’ve set. We’re all about results.

We are Human
