Own The Outcome
No excuses. Your success is our reputation. We’re proud to put our name on all of our work.
We partner to empower.
Praxent cultivates low-ego, high-integrity partnerships. We strive to give you the benefit of our expertise while always valuing yours. We love our work, but it’s not about us — it’s about the people we empower. Here are a few ways we show our clients that they’re our top priority:
We show our work.
We don’t hide away in a dark room for months and only deliver the finished product. We show our work and share our decisions to ensure they are in alignment with your business priorities.
We dive deeper.
With respect, we challenge assumptions and push back on requirements if we see a better way. We say ‘our chairs don’t recline’ to describe our active engagement to maximize the value of our work and your time.
We start small.
According to research by the Standish Group, small projects are almost 4x more successful. Having delivered 300+ digital innovation projects successfully, we’ve experienced first-hand that starting small is the best way to build momentum and drive maximum value.
We’re here to serve.
The ideal Praxenter is hungry, humble, smart, and driven to serve. To prove how seriously we take this, ask our team about Praxent’s five-stage interview process, known internally as ‘the gauntlet.’
We cultivate a positive and supportive workplace of gratitude, recognition, and psychological safety.The result? Our clients are happy because our employees are happy.
At our weekly team huddle, we share current project wins and learnings, unite around quarterly themes, and “cheers” individuals for their accomplishments.
Team members collaborate freely on deliverables. We use pair programming to ensure work is done right the first time, and eventually, to empower client-side team members.
Clients often attend meetings in person at our Austin office, but flexibly choose web and video conference as needed. All meeting rooms are setup with cameras and screens.
Team members venture out for team gatherings, host weekly Practice Lunch, and welcome families to quarterly celebrations.
Our biannual hackathon is where teams experiment with new technologies and tools from robotics to facial recognition and machine learning.
Founder Tim Hamilton and Managing Partner Kevin Hurwitz care deeply about the success and satisfaction of our clients and the health of our team.
We believe in a thoughtful approach.We love to get things done.
The Praxent way is a practiced approach to digital innovation. We center our culture around empowering our clients. We like it here — and we think you will, too.
