Built for teams
without borders.

Remote by default, with working patterns adjusted to your market rather than ours — and the regulatory detail that comes with each one.

How remote actually works

Your working week,
not ours.

We are remote-first and have been since 2017, which means distributed working is the operating model rather than a concession made during a pandemic. Senior people sit in New York and London, and the rest of the team is spread across European and UK time zones.

What that buys you is not cheapness. It is that the working week is arranged around your market instead of ours: Sunday cover for UAE engagements, an overnight cycle for Australian ones, and a written handover every day so progress does not depend on two calendars agreeing.

What differs between these five markets is mostly regulatory and commercial rather than technical — accessibility exposure, privacy regimes, payment expectations, procurement paperwork and how early a security questionnaire arrives. Each market page names those specifics rather than repeating the same paragraph with a flag changed.

The operating model

Four habits that make
distance irrelevant.

Distributed work fails when it is a co-located process performed over video. These are the practices that replace it.

01

Written before spoken

Decisions, trade-offs and rejected options are recorded in your repository. A distributed engagement only works when the record is authoritative and the meeting is optional.

02

A deployed preview, always

Every branch gets a preview environment, so feedback lands on the real thing at whatever hour suits you rather than on a screenshot in a call.

03

One live session a week

Reserved for the things that genuinely need a conversation. Everything else moves asynchronously, which is why time-zone distance stops being a tax.

04

Contracting in your currency

GBP, USD, EUR, CAD or AUD, under your MSA where you have one, with the tax documentation your finance team expects.
