Our mission
We make it easier for small teams to operate with the clarity that large teams pay consultants to achieve.
No VC pressure. No growth-at-all-costs mentality. Just thoughtful software built for the teams that already exist and the work they actually do.
Our principles
Calm over notification noise
We will never send a notification you don't explicitly ask for. Your dashboard should be the first place you look, not your fourth.
Accountability without surveillance
Transparency is about work status, not about when you check your email. We track what's due and what's done, not when you're online.
One source of truth for daily work
No toggling between Slack, email, and a calendar. All operational work lives in one place. All your team sees the same dashboard.
Mobile-first parity
The mobile app is not a compromise. It is the equal of the web app. Your team can run your workspace from their pocket.
Honest pricing, fully on the page
Three plans, each a base price plus a small per-person fee. Every number is public. No "contact us" wall and no "upgrade to unlock" paywalls hidden in the UI.
What we explicitly don’t build
Clarity comes from focus. We’ve decided not to build these things because they complicate the product or go against our mission:
- −Time tracking or productivity surveillance
- −Slack, Teams, or messaging integrations
- −Complex workflow automation or Zapier-style rules
- −Gantt charts, critical path, or Agile ceremonies
- −Resource planning or capacity management
- −Third-party app ecosystem or marketplace
The long view
We’re building software that lasts. Not software that optimizes for quarterly metrics or investor excitement. We want teams to use Relay for years, through multiple changes in their business, and for it to still feel as clean and clear as the day they signed up. That only happens if we prioritize depth over breadth, quality over velocity, and the actual needs of teams over the perceived needs of a theoretical market.
