## Products

### Pressbear, Marketplace · Digital PR
A marketplace where founders work directly with vetted publishers. Articles, citations, podcasts, newsletters, video. **5,200+ publishers** across **47 countries**, six formats. No middlemen. No agency markup. Transparent prices, clean inbox.

### Network, Owned media & tools
Twelve small websites and a handful of browser tools. Built slowly, ranked organically, monetised cleanly. **12.4M monthly views.** The part of the studio that compounds while we sleep.

### Royal Ring, Hospitality IoT (MK-IV)
A brushed-aluminium button on a restaurant table; a waiter feels a buzz on their wrist in **under half a second**. Hardware we machined ourselves. **230 restaurants live, 11 markets shipped.** Manager dashboards surface wait-time, response rate, and hot-spot heatmaps.

### Selective Engagements, Conditional services
Up to six outside engagements join the work each year. Outcome-based; the engagement is unpaid if agreed placements don't ship. Direct line to a partner, no junior account managers, no status meetings.

## What we believe

1. **Small is the point.** Twelve people, deliberately, since launch.
2. **Products before services.** Service work is a research instrument, not a business.
3. **Things that compound.** A website ranks. A marketplace gets denser. A device collects telemetry.
4. **Everything in one room.** Engineering, design, content, partnerships, all on payroll, same floor, same time zone.
5. **Everyone gets a share.** 10% of revenue paid quarterly; equity after three years.

## Hiring

We hire rarely and carefully. Our philosophy is Steve Jobs's: **hire smart people so they can tell us what to do, not the other way around**. We hire to never fire, so onboarding is strict and the bar is loud.

We look first for mindset, respect, responsibility, growth orientation. Skills follow. We hire people whose work we've already noticed through writing, code, side projects, or a teammate who vouches.

**No open roles at the moment.** If you can bring strong value for the whole team, send us your best work and a short note on why you'd thrive here: **hr@deltadroplet.com**
