How Did We Get Here?
It started with two passionate developers, a small office in Cincinnati, and a shared belief that mobile apps could be crafted better. In 2012, smartphones were fundamentally changing how people interacted with technology, but too many apps were being rushed to market without attention to detail or user needs.
Our founders saw an opportunity to build a different kind of digital agency—one that would prioritize craftsmanship, user experience, and long-term partnerships over quick fixes. They assembled a small team of like-minded specialists who believed in doing things right the first time.
The early days were filled with late nights, coffee-fueled brainstorming sessions, and the excitement of building something meaningful. Our first project, a modest app for a local business, set the standard for everything that followed: listen carefully, design thoughtfully, build expertly, and stay engaged for the long haul.
Word spread. One successful project led to another. Our team grew, our capabilities expanded, and our portfolio diversified. But one thing remained constant: our commitment to quality and our belief that the best digital experiences come from true collaboration between creators and clients.
A Team Distributed Across the United States
While our roots are in Cincinnati, our team now spans across the United States. This distributed approach allows us to bring together the best talent regardless of location, creating a diverse team with unique perspectives and experiences.
Our remote-first culture emphasizes collaboration, communication, and connection. We’ve developed robust processes and leveraged cutting-edge tools to ensure seamless teamwork across time zones, while maintaining the personal relationships that fuel our creativity and success.
This distributed model also enables us to better serve clients nationwide, with team members who understand local markets and can meet in person when needed. The result is a company that combines the agility of a remote team with the personal touch of a local partner.
