OUR STUDIO

### We’re small by design.

| Army of Bees | Traditional Agency | Doing It Yourself |
| --- | --- | --- |
| The partners do the work | A junior team you’ll never meet | You, at 2am, learning as you go |
| You talk to the people building it | An account manager relaying messages | You’re the whole team now |
| One team, no departments | Handoffs between siloed teams | Disconnected tools in different tabs |
| Built for you to run yourself | Built so you’re dependent on them | Yours to run... and yours to debug |
| Low overhead, priced like it | A Midtown lobby that you’re paying for | Cheap upfront, expensive when it breaks |
| We’ll tell you when you shouldn’t build | Whatever’s in the brief, billed hourly | Nobody tells you when you’re wrong |

#### The People on Your Calls

Trusted senior specialists pulled in when a project needs more hands.

TENETS

### Rules we work by.

#### A user interface is like a joke

If you have to explain it, it’s not very good.

#### We’ll tell you when you’re wrong.

That’s what you’re paying for. Your call still wins.

#### Sometimes the boring solution is the right one.

Conventions are conventions for a reason.

#### You should outgrow us.

We build systems your team runs on their own. No retainer required.

#### Accessibility is just good design.

The curb cut helps everyone.

#### Scrolljacking is almost always a bad idea.

There’s been loads of studies about this. Just don’t.

#### The unglamorous work is the work.

Data plumbing, integrations, edge cases. That’s where projects live or die.

#### Rules are just guidelines.

Including these. An expert knows when to break them.
