§ 00Crew File · Declassified

A small crew
with a long memory.

RFway is a remote-native AI automation practice founded in 2016. We stay small on purpose. Every mission is run by people who've shipped production software for more than a decade — and who now spend their days deploying agents, not chatting with them.

§ 02Operating Principles

Four rules
we actually follow.

These aren't values on a wall. They are the disagreements we keep having in meetings, which means we're still taking them seriously.

V-01

Direction Over Speed

Shipping the wrong thing fast is just expensive. We spend extra hours on scope so every hour after moves in a straight line.

V-02

Written, Not Said

Decisions, trade-offs, and postmortems live in documents you can find. If it isn’t written, it didn’t happen.

V-03

Operable By Others

Every system we build is handed to a team that isn’t us eventually. We write code as if that handoff is tomorrow.

V-04

Boring Is A Feature

We choose the unglamorous tool that’s been in production for a decade over the shiny one that launched last quarter.
