How we use 
tools to help our 
startup clients 
#slush14
We build web tools 
for professionals
So naturally we believe 
in them and use them 
for our own work too
Here are 
8 
tools that are crucial when we 
are working with startups
TOOL #1 
GitHub 
We track our codebase and 
collaborate on Github. 
github.com
TOOL #2 
Heroku 
Our apps and prototypes hosted 
in minutes. No configuration. 
heroku.com
TOOL #3 
Travis CI 
We write tests and Travis runs them automatically. 
We always know that released code works. 
travis-ci.com
TOOL #4 
Trello 
Managing our projects is simple with Trello’s card 
based approach. 
trello.com
TOOL #5 
Webtranslate.it 
Easy collaboration with translators 
and copywriters for multilingual projects. 
webtranslate.it
TOOL #6 
Flowdock 
Team chat is a vital part of our communication. Integrations 
with our other tools makes sure we always know what is 
happening. 
flowdock.com
TOOL #7 
Weekdone 
We know problems and ideas from the whole company 
and are thankful for successes of each week. 
weekdone.com
TOOL #8 
Intercom 
We use and recommend Intercom for many of our projects. It 
allows to connect and engage our users directly. We think 
Intercom is crucial for any startups success. 
intercom.io
Do you have an idea for a tool 
you would like to build?
