We put the customer at the center of all we do. At a basic level, we believe business success comes down to talking to customers and building something they want.

Customers are the core of everything we do, and our business exists to serve them. We prioritize their needs over all else within the company.Move with urgency. There are times when we need to move slowly and deliberately, but we default to acting fast and with urgency. We slow down when necessary, but this should be a deliberate choice. Businesses become more lethargic as they grow, this principle is designed to fight this fact.Be curious. We understand the world by being curious and asking why. We aren't satisfied with surface level understanding, and seek a deeper understanding of why things are the way they are. Don't take someone's word for it or the answer that it's how we do it. Understand why and dig deep.Excellence in execution. We know that what separates good from great is a high level of execution. We commit ourselves to excellence in everything that we do, from delivering an amazing product to writing a great email.Act like an owner. We're all owners of the business and act like it. We follow through on commitments, own our results and think long-term.Fight for simplicity. The law of increasing functional information states that systems evolve to become more complex over time.
