We are builders, investors, and optimists
Our Company Values
Velocity
We are like a shark; if we don’t swim forward, we die. We have to make difficult decisions, shoot for big outcomes, and work incredibly hard to rapidly advance our company and build a moat to competition.
Founder mentality
We focus relentlessly on helping entrepreneurs to build better businesses with the support of their investors. We are entrepreneurs ourselves, and every member of our team thinks like a founder. No one is too important to sweep the floor, and everyone’s help is needed to move our business forward.
Excellence
We strive for excellence in everything we produce through passionate craftsmanship and attention to detail. First moments matter. We go above and beyond to make our customers successful on the platform.
First principles thinking
In order to build towards the future, we need to challenge existing assumptions. We avoid analogies and seek the truth, and we build systems to help us do so. We document everything to help support our team’s distributed communication and learning.
Transparency
We believe in high transparency, which manifests itself in our product philosophy as well as the way we run our team. We are transparent internally about how things are going in every facet of our business. We are transparent with each other about concerns and feedback.
