What We Do
Identity tethers us to the world we live in, gives us meaning. Brand identity helps to situate and differentiate companies, products, and services from one another in the market. It is both visual (logos, color) and discursive (copywriting, communication), and a compelling, consistent brand identity is essential. BetaKillers draws upon a diverse understanding of visual and communicative theory to craft brand identities that work. "Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." - Steve Jobs
BetaKillers innovates radically new ideas and concepts designed to change the ways consumers and businesses interact. By identifying problems in the marketplace, we develop clever, innovative solutions based on our core principles of simplicity, functionality, and beauty. We then wireframe these solutions and flesh them out to fully-functional, market-ready prototypes.
BetaKillers flourishes on the cutting edge of technology. We believe in open source development, using frameworks of HTML5, CSS3, JADE, Bootstrap, LESS, PERL, Javascript, JQuery, PHP, MYSQL, NOSQL, Mongo, NODE, and occasionally other developmental plugins and languages. Everything we build is from scratch.
Why Choose Us?
We’re Creative
We specialize in creative solutions to problems. With our team's diverse backgrounds, skill sets, and dedication to out-of-the-box thinking, we are capable of identifying problems and shortcomings in a number of industries and developing truly innovative--even disruptive and revolutionary--solutions.
We’re Punctual
With our team's full-time dedication to our work, in addition to our extensive list of partners and contractors, we have a proven track record of exceeding project deadlines regardless of the scope of project. We also pride ourselves in remaining on-call for clients, investors, and partners. Efficiency is key.
We have magic
We've been referred to as today's Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Steve Wozniak. We're quite proud of this comparison. In our early stages, we were literally a handful of guys in garages and coffeeshops churning out truly innovative, complex, fully-functional technology that wowed clients, partners, and investors.
We love minimalism
"Simplicity, simplicity, simplicty," Henry David Thoreau once wrote. Thoreau believed our lives were "frittered away by detail"--a sentiment we believe applies to technology. While detail is crucial, complexity and complications don't have to be. The simplest, cleanest, and most efficient means to solve problems remains the guiding principle behind our work.
We’re responsible
Intregity. Ethics. As a business, profit and the bottom line are both key to our survival and partnerships. But we live in an age where we no longer have to accept that profit comes before people, revenue before relationships. We have never sacrificed our integrity, our word, or our ethics in the pursuit of either, and we have no plans to change that.
We're Friendly
We pride ourselves on being approachable and warm. We know how to walk the line between formal and friendly, and we've struck deals as much over beers as we have in boardrooms. We also believe that ongoing, friendly relationships with clients, partners, and investors make the relationships between us stronger and more enduring.
