The Rivveo Manifesto

Hey, Harry here, the founder of Rivveo. This manifesto is a collection of 5 statements that underpin our thinking and decision making around the future and growth of Rivveo. I’m making this manifesto public because I think you deserve to understand the values and principles behind the tools you use.


01/ We’ll never sell out. We care.


For decades we’ve used the current industry standard tools and frankly we feel we’ve been sold out to appease investors and ultimately ever growing revenue. We care about the design professionals in the trenches solving the worlds problems. Rivveo is for them.


02/ Code is the designer's medium.


We believe code shouldn't be exclusive to engineers. When designers work with code, they’re more powerful than ever. Rivveo is leading the way to move design from vectors to code.


03/ Our mission is singular and unwavering.


Everything we do is focused on building the best design tool possible for design professionals. No compromises, just relentless dedication to this purpose.


04/ We champion designer ownership.


Designers should maintain control throughout the product journey. Rivveo empowers designers to own their designs through to production and beyond.


05/ We not us.


Rivveo isn't just built for design professionals, it's built with design professionals. We aspire to have a strong tight knit community that drives our roadmap and direction. It’s we not us.
