Company History
A story worth building
Years of ideas, lessons, and progress — here’s how we got here.
2019
Four people and a room
We started as a studio taking on work nobody else wanted, which turned out to be the best possible way to learn what people actually needed built.
2020
The first product
We stopped billing by the hour and shipped something of our own. Three hundred people paid for it in the first quarter, and every one of them told us what was wrong with it.
2022
Twenty people, four countries
Remote from the start, not by accident. We wrote the handbook before we needed it and it is still the first thing a new joiner reads.
2024
Profitable, on our own terms
No outside money, no growth targets set by somebody else. We chose the slower road and it left us with the company we wanted to work at.
2026
Where we are now
Forty thousand teams and the same question we opened with: what is still harder than it needs to be?

March 2021
Incorporated
Two founders, a laptop each and a bank account with enough in it for eight months. We gave ourselves until it ran out.
2023
February 2023
The platform rewrite
Six months of rebuilding on foundations that could take the next five years of load. Nothing visible shipped and it was the best decision we made.
2025
June 2025
Series of our own
We opened the second office, doubled support cover and kept the pricing where it was.

Two brothers, a rented unit behind the station, and a contract to repair machinery for the mill that had just reopened.

Spring 1958
The first factory
Forty staff and the move out of the town centre. The original unit stayed in the family until 1994.
1972
August 1972
Exporting
The first shipment abroad, to a distributor in Rotterdam who had written to us twice before we answered.
1989

A second generation
The founders retired within a year of each other and the company passed to their daughters, who kept the name and changed almost everything else.
2004
June 2004
Rebuilt after the fire
Eleven weeks of closure and a rebuild that let us design the floor properly for the first time.
2026

Project Timeline
Project plan
Eighteen weeks in four phases. Open a phase for the week-by-week.
Week 1
Kick-off and stakeholder interviews
Nine conversations, one page of notes each, circulated the same day.
Week 2
Content and data audit
Everything that exists today, catalogued, with a keep-or-cut against each row.
Week 3
Scope sign-off
One document, signed. Changes after this point go through the change log.
Week 4
Wireframes
Every template at low fidelity, so the argument is about structure and not colour.
Week 6
Visual design
Two directions, one chosen, then applied across the set.
Week 8
Design system handover
Components documented and named the same way in design and in code.
Week 10
Templates built
Every page type, responsive, against the real data.
Week 13
Content migration
Scripted, run three times, with the diff reviewed after each pass.
Week 16
Client review
Two weeks of feedback, tracked in one list with an owner on each row.
Week 17
Pre-launch checks
Redirects, analytics, performance budget and a rollback we have actually tested.
Week 18
Go live and handover
Launch on a Tuesday morning, training in the afternoon, two weeks of cover after.

Sprint 5
Performance pass
A budget per template, enforced in CI so a regression fails the build rather than the launch.

Accessibility audit
External audit against WCAG 2.2 AA, with the fixes budgeted in this sprint rather than after launch.
Agency Project
A recent project
Six months, start to results.
