No is the aggressively anti-consulting experiment for startups.
We improve every team’s ability to deliver extraordinary results reliably.
The main reason that everyone on your team is not a 10x employee is that limits are artificially imposed by dysfunctional systems.

Why we’re the best
What we do is not magic. It’s usually common sense which has been buried in many layers of bureaucracy, ego, and overeducation. Most individuals and organizations would prefer to think they know or can learn how to run a successful team. This has driven the certification frenzy and pseudo-expert economy. They try Agile or XP, or hire new strategic advisors, but nothing seems to change. Our experience combined with our unique approach enables us to break through roadblocks of all sorts, including:
- Demotivated or unproductive teams
- Failure to launch
- Stagnating innovation
- Missing product/market fit
- Ineffective leadership
What’s more, we do it with you, not for you, teaching you the skills, processes, and team building you need to do it over and over again.
Who we are
We are failed corporatists, successful entrepreneurs, and problematic non-conformers who now find it difficult to do anything other than build great teams. We are solution architects, program managers, heads of design, engineering leads, and change managers. Despite our myriad backgrounds, the primary unifying force of No is that we have honed a process that makes teams more efficient, resilient, and performant. We’re passionate about what we do because we know there’s a better way to work, for individuals and for companies.
We’re on a path to maximize the potential of your teams and products. We’ve been on bad teams. We want everyone to benefit from the power of amazing teams that deliver.

What we do
We extend your team. We maximize potential. Unlike other consultancies, which win engagements and then try to shortcut victory, we fundamentally change your business. Our only objective is delivery through system-wide optimization. We straddle the line between insider and outsider. We truly consider ourselves part of your team, but we’re not beholden by the normal hierarchy or expectations of an employee, therefore we will perform the wild experimentation and provide the candid feedback that your teams often can’t exercise.
Not every team needs us – if you feel your well-oiled machine can’t be more… oiled… that’s fine. We know that most don’t feel that way, and their performance proves it.
We work with all types of companies

Growing SaaS companies
We can’t help you with accounting, HR, or documentation, but we can help guide your growth to maximize results. Sometimes that means saying no to partnerships or customers. Sometimes that means ignoring the advice of your favorite founder or thought leader.

Whatever-series start-Ups
Unlike larger companies that have become pigeonholed in their ways, you have the opposite problem. Growth is replete with forks in the road and growing pains: Who to hire, how to build an actual culture, when to pivot, and where to take risks, all while not jeopardizing the mission you’ve set out upon.

Brave large corps
If your large corporation is struggling to deliver and you’ve tried the usual consulting companies, you know they can’t help you. They’re too focused on the details of their SOW, not on the big picture of creating a healthy team. They know telling you the truth is risky, so instead they work within the boundaries you’ve set. The boundaries you’ve set are part of the problem
