We believe in…

The Power of People

Everyone has knowledge. Everyone has a lever. We work in equal partnerships where everyone’s expertise is recognized and used to build solutions that work for all.

The Power of Technology

Technology is a tool, not a solution. We use it as an ally to address real human needs. Every service we shape is a mindful mix of analog and digital components.

The Power of Us

Collaboration is the key to creating new ideas and building better approaches. We combine our expertise at the intersection of humans and technology with your mission, vision, and passion to create positive, measurable impact together.

Solana Rice, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of Liberation in a Generation
The Alice Paul Institute partnered with Trimtab to create an award winning traveling suffrage exhibit. Working cross country, our teams had an extraordinary collaboration. Trimtab was very skilled at incorporating our knowledge of the subject into dynamic concepts and was open to our feedback throughout the project. We are delighted with the results.

Lisa Hendrickson, Board Member, Alice Paul Institute
Trimtab designed a beautiful report for us, and we have had a great response from donors. I would strongly recommend Trimtab to folks looking for strong designers that care about their clients!
