Founder story

Imagine you're a developer. What if a third of your time at work — 693 hours a year — was wasted? What if it was wasted because you had to use developer tools from a different era?

Having worked with many Salesforce developers from all over the world I have noticed one common theme — their productivity was significantly constrained by a single factor. That factor was what tools they used. As a result of having inadequate tools, developers' everyday workflow had many manual tasks that accumulated and snowballed into massive productivity losses. For companies, that manifested into revenue losses, project budget overruns, and unhappy users.

Why do these talented people have to waste so much of their time on things that could be automated? They were hardly envisioning doing the same boring thing over and over again when they were getting their CS degrees.

When I looked at development workflows used on Salesforce projects, I sometimes couldn't sleep at night because what I saw reminded me of Frankenstein's monster. That's when I realised that many companies do not have the in-house expertise to create the workflow they need — to create the workflow that would make their team happy and unlock their team's potential.

Nothing great happens when we have to operate in an environment that's not conducive to our success. Having the right tools at our fingertips, in contrast, can change everything.

Imagine if Lewis Hamilton didn't have a Mercedes F1 car available to him but had a bicycle instead. What kind of record would he set? The reality for many Salesforce developers today is exactly that — all they have is a bicycle but they need a F1 car.

So, late in 2019, I quit my job at a consultancy firm in London to change how Salesforce developers work. I am on a mission to give developers the cutting-edge technology they need to succeed and the tools that can take them to the next level.
