Contest Details
Brief description:
- I want to recreate my company with my beliefs. I believe in the intersection of humanity and business (SB). We’re a SB, and we target SB. We respect the dignity of our team and our clients. More than anything, we know how to be human. There is too much BS in business. We shun that. We believe in simple, easy-to-use services and we obsess over the user experience in our offering. We build web-based tools that help SB.
