Our values
We’re a small team with big dreams - and the culture we create is just as important to us as the product we’re building.
Growth oriented : We invest in people and growth as the company grows.
Humility : Everyone has a lot to give and a lot to learn. Egos are not allowed.
Customer focused : We love our customers. We make decisions by focusing relentlessly on them - and accept if this means changing our ideas. Customer success is our success.
Intellectual honesty : We believe in creating an environment where the best ideas win and acknowledging when we are wrong.
Hack to success : We move fast and take big swings. We always aim for a solution that addresses 80% of the problem in 20% of the time. We make educated bets, launch MVPs, and iterate.
Having fun : Be unapologetically you! We love our game-nights, ping pong tournaments, bufo emojis, and cow jokes (the CEO knows over 100 of them and TechCrunch made fun of him for it).
