When you set out to invent a new kind of software—and company—one day you’ll come to work and find that you don’t know how to do something. You’ll meet new kinds of problems that you’ve never solved, or start a conversation you're not sure how to have, or discover a need for something that’s never been made before.

Innovate with purpose Build diverse teams to sharpen ideas with different perspectives. Focus on creating moments of delight. Build the better mousetrap only when it differentiates.
