About Doneref
Free to explore. Free to create.
We collaborate without many boundaries. We bring together different skills, ideas and perspectives, following what sparks our curiosity and giving every project the time and attention it deserves.
Being independent means being free to choose. What to make, how to make it and, most importantly, how far to take an idea. No unnecessary compromises, and no losing our curiosity along the way.

Our core values
What we build around
We build responsibly, embracing AI and staying at the forefront of our craft. Technical excellence is a belief behind everything we ship.
We aim to surpass our community's expectations and our own. From the smallest interaction to the biggest release.
We believe in daily experimentation. Testing, learning from mistakes and repeating. That loop shapes the best of us and our products.
Continuous learning is a way of life here. A safe space where anyone can grow into mastery, at their own pace.
