We use our time to do good

We use our 1319 workweeks to craft the best digital products for conscious clients, to aid the regeneration of our planet and accelerate the transition to a sustainable and fair economy.

Conscious clients

We help good organisations do good things. This means we only work on projects that align with our mission and aim to have a positive impact.

Post-growth mindset

Our studio is small, and will remain small, fostering personal connections and close collaboration. We believe in fewer clients, to ensure focus, quality and a healthy and happy team.

Fair prices

We aim for maximum impact, not maximum profit. This means we offer fair pricing, for all parties involved. We have different rates for different organisations to ensure accessibility to our services.

10% Volunteering

Around 10% of our time is spent on initiatives that we believe will have a great positive impact, but don't have the resources (yet) to hire a product team.

We measure impact

Whenever possible we make impact measurable through a life cycle analysis, for free.

No flying

We opt for sustainable and low-emission transportation, refraining from air travel for business.

1319 workweeks to go before 2050: the year emissions need to reach net zero to preserve a liveable planet - as called for in the Paris Agreement.
