The Generalist Co. was amazing to work with. Our Generalist was smart, energetic, and brought a can-do attitude to every challenge we threw his way. He was excellent communicator and brings rigor to all of the experiments he works on. I’d absolutely love to get to work with them again

Do more. Get there faster.
Building a startup is tough.
In early-stage startup teams, you often lack skills, time or money. You need to conduct quality user research, but you don't have the skills. Or take on another project, but you need more time. Or hire a marketing specialist, but you need more money.
A generalist can solve all these problems.
We make it easier.
A generalist is a jack-of-all-trades - one person with multiple skills, who can effectively fill multiple roles. They can support you in pretty much any way - from simple daily tasks, to complex project management.
All without the faff & expense that comes with recruiting multiple people.
When building a startup, new challenges constantly arise, which need specific skills to solve. But hiring people with those skills takes time, and they'll only solve one or two of your problems. An in-house generalist can respond immediately, to multiple challenges, at once.
Become more resilient, and breathe a little easier, as your startup grows.
Let's get there together!
Hiring a Generalist is like getting another committed cofounder, without having to share the pie. It's a cost-effective, flexible way to rapidly scale your team’s capacity - enabling you to do more.
We'll free your time to focus on more important work, or provide you with new ideas, direction, and impetus.
