We don't really do marketing. Apparently this is the marketing page, so here is the honest explanation of what we do instead.

The Word

Our word matters. We should not promise one thing while quietly constructing the opposite behind the scenes. Saphira may make mistakes; the promise is to tell the truth about them and fix them when we find them.

  • We will not turn Saphira into an advertising platform.
  • We will not build our business around selling consumer data.
  • We will not deliberately cripple open software to manufacture a subscription tier.
  • We will not pretend a referral link is impartial when we may benefit from it.
  • We will tell people what exists now and what is merely planned.
  • We will publish software under the licence we say it is published under.
  • We would rather lose a sale than gain one by misleading somebody.

There is a tiny BOFH corner here, because enterprise pricing pages that say “Contact Sales”, dashboards that merely renamed a button “AI-powered”, documentation that explains everything except the useful bit, and licence servers having a bad Tuesday are objectively funny. You may like us, dislike us, or feel about Saphira approximately the same way people feel about suspiciously brown yeast-based toast spread. Fine. We are not forming a focus group to adjust the dragon.

GoodA person is worth their word. Saphira should be worth hers. Build it. Document it. Tell the truth about it. Let people decide.
