Our values
We love great products and we love building them together even more. That's why we believe in the core principles of true ownership, transparent communication and a healthy support culture.
Customer first
At every step, we try to take our customers' perspective. In this way, we can deliver real value and solve real problems.
Always be shipping
True to the motto "Better done than perfect", we always deliver new features and enhancements as quickly as possible, trying to meet the highest quality standards.
Data never lies
There are always great ideas for new features and product improvements. At Mate, we focus on always making decisions based on collected data.
Forgiveness over permission
As Mates, we don't ask permission first. Every team member has his/her responsibility and stands by the results. We believe that it is better to tackle things that don't work than not to try at all.
Great UX always wins
We believe that a good and outstanding user experience is the main reason why customers love a product and want to use it again.
Always open for great ideas
Everyone on the team should contribute to our company culture. We welcome ideas and open discussions to grow together as a team.
»We have founded Mate to change the way, how people create visuals for different cases in communication. We build a product, that is as easy to handle, as writing an e-mail, and offers output, which can be created by top-notch design tools.«
