At Accredible (https://www.accredible.com) we're making education count for careers. We believe that we're all lifelong learners and wherever, however you learn it should be recognized by employers. We're building credentials (certificates, badges, blockchain) for the information age.
We are a small, profitable team and we've scaled revenue over 2.5x this year. We're keeping the quality bar high and every team member is able to have a gigantic impact. We make decisions democratically and place a lot of trust & autonomy in team members.
I was a long time iOS user from the 3G to the 5S. At that point I decided to try the Pixel 1 and I really preferred the Android experience. It's clear that the quality of the UX is subjective and it takes a little time to get used to the nuances of a new OS but 18 months on I'm still very happy with the move to Android.
The main concern I have is for device lifetime. It's hard to know anything more than an anecdote until a particular model is too out of date for the information to be useful but my Pixel broke within a year. I was given a free replacement under warranty but I don't have that same feeling of long-term hardware lifetime I got from Apple.
Thanks for the thought on layers. We're hoping to add more shapes/images to the left hand side including things like icons so I hope it'll make more sense then. With the current set of mostly pre-made badge SVGs you're absolutely right!
In terms of making money, we provide a badging and certification service at https://www.accredible.com. We're aiming to keep this tool free so that it can be useful to people getting started. It's something we want to keep improving and it seems a shame to lock it down to our customer-base.
I'm using Chrome on Android, and it the site doesn't seem to work correctly on mobile (maybe it isn't intended to- in that case, sorry!) The initial badge selection screen isn't cleared after one is selected, and by scrolling to the right, I can see a clutter of other elements underneath.
Thanks for pointing that out! We didn't check things out on mobile so we'll add a notice for mobile users in the short term and look at real support in the longer term.
Fun to mess around with. I wasn't able to change the text size though. It was either 30 or, if I completely deleted the size, it seemed to default down to 14. On Firefox 59
