The 10 mantras of STIK

(a.k.a. the code we live by while building the future)

We’re not just building tech.
We’re building Drop Reality — a new way to connect people through the things they love.
And to do that, we need a culture that’s just as bold, sharp, and alive as the world we’re creating.

So here it is:
The way we think.
The way we work.
The way we drop.

01 – Default to Wild

Safe is boring.
We chase ideas that scare us a little — or a lot.
If it’s never been done before, we probably want to do it.

02 – Build Fast. Drop Hard.

We move. Fast.
Launch it, test it, break it, rebuild it better.
Speed isn’t everything, but it makes everything possible.

03 – No Bullshit. No Politics. Just Work.

Zero drama. Zero ego.
We say what we think. We debate with respect.
And then we get back to building. Simple.

04 – Users First. Fans Always.

We don’t build for “users.”
We build for fans, creators, weirdos, superfans, and people who give a damn.
Their joy is our KPI.

05 – Make It Real

Ideas are cheap. Execution is everything.
We don’t just imagine the future—we prototype it, test it, and drop it.
Over and over again.

06 – Launch Loud, Iterate Quiet

We launch like it’s a world tour.
Then we listen, tweak, and upgrade nonstop behind the scenes.
Hype + craft = magic.

07 – Own It or Drop It

If you touch it, you own it.
We don’t wait for someone else to fix it.
We lead from wherever we are.

08 – Talent > Titles

We don’t care where you come from or what your resume says.
Great ideas win. Period.
We hire people, not pedigrees.

09 – Protect the Vibe

We work hard, but we laugh harder.
We take the mission seriously — but never ourselves.
Kind people only. High vibes only. No assholes, ever.

10 – Future Over Everything

We’re not here to optimize yesterday.
We’re here to invent what comes next.
And we won’t stop until Drop Reality is everywhere.

That’s our culture.
Messy. Brave. Fast. Obsessive. Human.
If this feels like your kind of tribe — come build it with us.

Welcome to STIK.
Welcome to Drop Reality.
