Our Manifesto
What we believe about Rails expertise
1. Expertise has value beyond time
The expert who solves your problem in 2 hours because they've seen it 100 times? They're worth more, not less. We champion project-based pricing over hourly billing.
2. Character matters as much as code
Technical skill without humility is incomplete expertise. We only work with experts who are respectful, collaborative, and ego-free.
3. Focus creates excellence
We're not a marketplace for everything. Just Rails. That focus means everyone speaks the same language and ships faster.
4. Quality over quantity, always
We'd rather have a small community of exceptional experts than thousands who are just okay. Every expert here can ship production code.
5. Trust is built by humans
No algorithms ranking experts. No automated vetting. We personally review every expert because trust can't be automated.
What we reject
✗ The race to the bottom on price
✗ Treating developers like interchangeable resources
✗ Brilliant jerks who make teams miserable
✗ The hustle culture of nights and weekends
✗ Surface-level keyword matching
The future we're building
Imagine a Rails ecosystem where experts are known for their specialties. Where businesses find the exact expertise they need. Where quality work is the norm, not the exception.
That's what we're building. One expert, one business, one successful project at a time.
