We Believe…
- Swiping, tapping, and waiting for screens to load is slow
- A universal search UI can fix this problem
- Android was always meant to be an open system
- The raw data to build the most powerful universal search is there, but no one has stitched it together into a smooth experience
- Respecting user data = long term success. Your data stays on your device. We don’t store it. We don’t sell it. (see exceptions for bug fixing below)
- We make money by making a good product. Sesame is a 100% voluntary purchase
- In user centered development: www.reddit.com/r/sesame
