Our Story: Why We Do This

Our founder, Matthias Frank, trained to be a lawyer.

There, he saw first-hand how talented people were constantly slowed down by inefficient systems and clunky tools.

That frustration sparked a bigger question: What if internal operations could be as inspiring and empowering as the products ambitious teams create?

From that moment, the mission became clear: to help ambitious people do great work.

Since then, we work with teams that really care about their work by building systems that people actually enjoy using – systems that are simple, scalable, and human-first.

Curiosity

We ask the right questions to uncover your biggest bottlenecks

Tailored To You

Your business isn't a cookie-cutter template – and your system shouldn't be either.

Simple & Powerful

Complex systems aren't helpful. We design for clarity and ease-of-use.

Built For Adoption

The best system is the one your team actually uses.

Our Design Philosophy

How We Design With Notion

Every system we create is guided by a set of design principles. They keep us focused on building workspaces that are simple, scalable, and – most importantly – a joy for people to use every day.

Radical Simplicity

We focus on delivering simple and effective systems rather than creating unnecessary complexity

Clarity Over Cleverness

Workspaces should feel instantly understandable, never confusing.

Scalable by Design

Built to handle today's work and tomorrow's growth.

User-Centric Workflows

Technology follows real workflows, not the other way around.

Sustainable Maintenance

Systems should be easy to update without outside help.

Environment & Behaviour

Systems should naturally nudge your team toward the right habits – making adoption automatic.

I used to be a lawyer. I hated the inefficiency.

I spent years training for the courtroom, but I quickly realized something: Law is infrastructure. It surrounds innovation, but it rarely enables it.

During my time in legal practice, I saw brilliant minds drowning in bad processes. We were billing thousands of euros per hour, yet we were wasting hours clicking through broken interfaces and chasing lost files. It felt like "bullshit work" – tasks that exist only because the system is broken.

Then I found Notion. For the first time, I had the agency to build my own tools. I traded my case files for databases and never looked back.

Today, my goal is to build Europe's leading Notion consultancy.

We bridge the gap between your tools and your workflows so that your team gets the world-class systems that it deserves.

To a Perfect Foundation

Rigorous Architecture.
Radical Hospitality.

We've all hired consultants who ghost you, miss deadlines, or speak in jargon. That doesn't happen here.

We believe that a perfect system is useless if the process to build it was a nightmare. That is why we treat our communication with the same level of architectural precision as our databases.

Our clients often tell us they learn as much from how we run the project as they do from the system itself.

When you hire consultants, it can feel like it goes on forever. You guys set clear expectations and held us accountable. It was a masterclass in professionalism.

Unrelenting Momentum

Projects shouldn't drag on. We push the pace, communicating proactively every week so you never have to ask "what's next?"

Radical Ownership

No finger-pointing. If it breaks, we own it. We don't explain away problems with external factors; we just bring you the solution.

Guided Accountability

We are the guide. We set clear expectations and hold your team accountable to them—ensuring we actually cross the finish line on time.

We work with leaders
who care deeply.

Most companies tolerate operational chaos. Our clients refuse to. They know that a world-class product requires world-class internal systems.

The Standard Setter

You refuse to accept "good enough." You demand the same level of excellence from your internal operations as you deliver to your customers.

The Scaling Realist

You know that at your current growth rate, adding more people to a broken system will only create noise, not output. You need a foundation.

The Team Advocate

You hate seeing brilliant people fight broken tools. You want to empower your team to focus on their actual work, not administrative busywork.

Here's what other leaders have to say about us

70% of our manual processes – gone! Matthias transformed how our investment team works.
