Values
Simplicity, Reliability & Feedback
Our aim is to achieve a delightful user experience, backed by superior technical quality. We are continuously improving by harnessing customer feedback, making constant incremental changes.
Belief
- Feedback from real users drives real product development.
- Immediate delivery on big ideas.
- Change is a prerequisite for success.
- Quality for us means usable, simple, fast, reliable and modifiable products.
- Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Achieving it will improve something unexpected.
- All our activities must create actual customer value, or be removed.
These principles are designed to bring customer satisfaction and employee pride of workmanship resulting in effective and enjoyable products for real users.
We believe that sustainable growth, longevity and financial success follows from creating success for our customers. Happy and successful customers makes our effort worthwhile. Another key to employee satisfaction is to provide the freedom to deliver something that makes us proud.
A long-term perspective is important to our success. As a daily priority, we will make decisions to invest long term while managing short-term demands.
How
We work by agile and lean principles.
This means that you do not have to commit to huge risks to work with us. We discourage you to make too many assumptions about the future by writing a specification covering all possibilities.
We value ongoing planning over far reaching plans.
Let's talk about two things at all times during product development: a) about your vision, and b) about what you currently find is the most important problems to solve. Then, let's start solving your current biggest problems right now (it will only be days or weeks until they are solved). We do this while working steadily in sync with your vision.
Our ability to deliver new functionality immediately on important ideas harness our customer's inspiration.
Incremental work gives the added benefit of being able to harness value by using the software early on. Incremental work also means that you can stop the project at a moments notice, still having a fully operational, working software.
We adapt to your changing needs. We solve your current problems right now. You can use it tomorrow.
