We work with people building things. That's the short version.
The kind of clients we work best with
People who know what they're trying to do, even if they don't know exactly how yet. People who have real constraints and are honest about them. People who want someone to tell them the truth, not just confirm what they already think.
We've worked with founders, nonprofits, journalists, and established teams. The industry doesn't matter much. What matters is whether they're building something real and whether they want a direct working relationship.
What we're not
We're not a large agency with layers of account management. We don't have a sales team or a standardized package. We're a small team that works directly with clients, which means whoever you talk to at the start is the person doing the work.
We're a poor fit for companies that need a large vendor relationship, for projects where everything has to go through a formal approval process, or for clients who want a team that will agree with everything they say.
What we're trying to build
A practice that does good work and is honest about what it is. We're not trying to be everything to everyone. We're trying to be genuinely useful to the people we work with.
That's the whole thing.
