We are...
Customer First
Always start with the end user in mind—every time. At the end of the day, we are nothing without our customers. Every decision we make, every line of code we write, must answer one question: How does this benefit the customer?
Rational
Create value. State facts. Use logic. Avoid embellishment. Minimize emotion. We prioritize rationality in decision-making—aim before firing, measure before cutting, and think before acting.
Minimalists
Simplicity is elegant. Simplicity is timeless. Simplicity is scalable. Every time we’ve made things simpler, we’ve made them better. From our direct mail flow to our marketing experiments. We spend hours removing a single char.
Fast
Decide fast. Learn fast. Speed isn’t the enemy of quality—it’s the path to it. Every day, we aim to move faster than the day before.
Fundamentalist
To invent anything, we believe in digging deep into systems, laws, and code of what has been done in the past. Only after we deeply understand the past can we invent new ways of making them better.
