Being an outsider to the world of tech, I had an idea for a real estate review website without any idea how to bring that idea to reality. After a few dead ends in trying to find a designer who could provide the solutions I needed, I followed a referral and contacted Cause of a Kind. In our first meeting, not only did they grasp the core concept of HouseCrunch.com but already sketched out several key technology solutions and data sources. Since then, Cause of a Kind has been the technology partner that not only built HouseCrunch.com but also with whom we continue to collaborate to enhance the web application. Cause of a Kind has been an excellent collaborator in the development of HouseCrunch and I could not recommend them more.

Risefluence initially began working with the Cause of a Kind team to take our platform from idea to market and have continued the ongoing partnership together. We enjoy working with them because they bring not only technical expertise and marketing acumen, but a great sense for go to market strategy as well.
It's been a rock solid collaboration and we deeply value their commitment, process, and working style. The COAK leadership team has also served as an important sounding board when navigating product market fit and building the right features for our users.

During VeeFriends' Series 2 launch in April 2022, we worked with the Cause of a Kind team to develop an NFT pre-reveal html5 video game. We enjoyed working with the COAK team, as they were readily available, communicative, and open to feedback. We were on a tight timeline with the project, and COAK jumped in and worked hard to meet deadlines and revisions within a short time period. The end result was a fun, interactive game for our community to play.

COAK jumped in to make some very quick improvements to both processes and platform, and we've since extended the scope of our work with them to include a complete site rebuild. Our work with them continues to grow, as we've found COAK to be professional, productive and good strategic thinkers.

When launching my studio 10 years ago, I made the strategic decision not to bring technical development in-house, but to work with best in class partners who could provide the same level of service and imagination we strive to deliver. With the good fortune of some high profile and long term client relationships, we get solicited by tech partners often. I made the propitious of engaging with Justin and Mike from COAK soon before a major opportunity came to light, and they successfully won the work over some much larger firms. It is a decision that neither our client or we will ever regret, because COAK not only met but exceeded expectations. I hope to have a long term relationship with this collaborative team.

We love working with Cause of a Kind, and not just for their great product development expertise. They're also awesome to talk with about business strategy (they always make thoughtful suggestions), future product iterations (they're excellent problem-solvers), and macro trends (they've helped make us smarter about Web3), and they do it all with an infectious spirit and genuine curiosity that we definitely appreciate in a collaborator.

TakeTatt has the ambitious goal of making tattoo removal affordable, and a better overall experience. One of the challenges is servicing thousands of clients efficiently, with fewer labor resources. I think one of the many challenges posed when starting a new project is choosing the right solutions of technology, logic & user experiences. In my past experiences, working with even the most talented engineers, is that you simply take your idea to them and it's created only to discover that it really could have been done in a better way.
The moment we got started with COAK, I noticed the difference. They understood the entire tech landscape, and all the tools we had at our disposal. They listened to the problems that we were looking to solve, and asked questions that were intuitive. They provided solutions that were thoughtful, and provided pathways to future projects and features. I can confidently say that they will save us countless time, and money in the future by fully understanding our business and it's goals.

With the skill and obvious expertise of the CoaK team aside, the biggest thing that we can say about working with Justin, Mike, and their team is that they are a true partner. As we've built a product together, it has been a collaboration rather than a transaction. Our conversations go beyond the product itself, to include usability, customer experience, and growth roadmaps. We're looking forward to continuing to work with the team.
