About us

Our mission is to improve the user experience for all. Specializing in user research, we help companies optimize their user experience. We do so by gathering and analyzing feedback from actual end-users, thanks to a combination of UX testing and consultancy. Founded by alumni from Coca-Cola and BlaBlaCar, we’re preparing for a new chapter by bringing new UX services to our customers, covering all their user listening needs.

Within 6 years, we have built strong relationships with leading companies such as Air France, Auchan, BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole, Engie, FNAC Darty, Leroy Merlin, L’Oréal, LVMH, and many others.

Our culture

We are a liberated company with a ratio of 60:40 women to men. We have an organic organization where experts make the final decision, not managers. If you have an idea, we encourage you to explore it and take the initiative. Honestly, we are still discovering all the benefits and challenges of a liberated company, but we find the ride extremely motivating and enriching.

Behaviors we encourage:

  • Stick to why
  • Demonstrate empathy
  • Be curious, seek improvement
  • Always ask, always share
  • DIY or consult
  • Leader-leader: you’re the captain
