[01] About

A senior engineer's firm, built to outlast trends.

TrendsMT exists because most software is shipped by teams optimized for handoffs, not for outcomes. We are optimized for outcomes.

[02]Origin

Why we exist.

Trends Media & Technology — TrendsMT — started in 2015 the simplest way a firm can. People asked our Founder for help, and the work was worth doing. Putting a name on it made the next call easier — easier to scope, easier to refuse, easier to do well.

The name is the thesis. Technology changes faster than most teams can absorb, and software is the medium most things flow through now. TrendsMT stays aware of which trends are worth building on and which aren't, and to bring serious engineering to the work that is — whether the surface is a marketplace, a fintech rail, an AI feature, or a mobile app.

[04]What we say no to

We refuse more work than we take.

Saying no is part of the work. These are the projects we turn down even when the rate is right.

  • 01Pure staff augmentation. We are not a body shop.
  • 02Greenfield work where the customer is not yet validated.
  • 03Engagements that prohibit us from talking directly to end users.
  • 04AI features designed to demo well rather than to be used.
  • 05Rewrites for reasons of fashion rather than fitness.
