Our Beliefs
- Swiping, tapping, and waiting for screens to load is inefficient
- A universal search UI can streamline this process
- Android's open system is meant to be leveraged
- The raw data exists to create a powerful universal search, but it needs to be integrated into a smooth experience
- Respecting user data is key to long-term success. Your data stays on your device, and we don't sell it (see exceptions for bug fixing below)
- We earn revenue by creating a valuable product. Sesame is a 100% voluntary purchase
- We prioritize user-centered development. Join the conversation at www.reddit.com/r/sesame
