How we work

• Everything the product claims, it has done in a recording. A feature is finished when a replay of a real conversation reproduces it exactly, offline, and when it has been judged by eye in the browser at three widths in both colour schemes.
• Nothing slow goes on the live path. The slide has to compose while the person is still speaking; anything that cannot keep up runs beside the conversation, never in it.
• Restraint is a feature. One main idea per slide, a few supporting pieces, calm motion, the subject driving the look. We say no to most things.
• Plain words, everywhere: in the product, in the code, on this site. If a sentence needs a diagram to be understood it is rewritten.

Roles

No role is open as this page is written. When one is, it is listed here and on ELAV8’s careers page.

If you have built something in this territory — real-time speech, live composition, the design of calm interfaces — write to [email protected] with a link to the thing you built and one paragraph on why. A person reads it; a real reply follows, either way.
