Easel

Website

Overview

Easel was borne out of our frustration with the current state of design tools. Development tools have improved as the web has matured but design tools haven't. We started Easel because we want to create better design tools for the Web.

Easel is a member of the Summer 2012 Y-Combinator batch and is located in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Source-based assessment · automated evidence rules

Maturity is an evidence-based assessment, not a success rating. It may understate the current stage where evidence is limited. Coverage records documented areas, not a complete or independently audited company history.
