Scriven Labs is built in Bhutan, for engineering teams around the world. The distance is not a disadvantage to work around. It shapes how the product gets made.

Being far from the usual startup noise forces a certain discipline: ship the thing that has to be true first, prove it, and don't confuse motion with progress. The context layer and its guarantees came before any meeting feature for exactly that reason.

The teams we build for are anywhere: distributed, busy, and tired of losing the answer that was in the room last week. Building from Thimphu keeps us honest about that, because nothing about the work depends on being in the same building as the people we're helping.

More of the story of why a meeting-intelligence startup is being built here lives in the origin log.
