About Us
Why we built Mindcrate
Our Story
With over 20 years in the digital agency and tech product sectors, our team at Mindcrate knows how time-consuming documentation can be. From SOWs and BRDs to Creative Briefs, we’ve spent countless hours on these essential documents, often at the expense of business development and creative ideation.
Since ChatGPT's launch in late 2022, LLMs and generative AI have transformed our work. With layoffs, shrinking marketing budgets and many of us juggling multiple roles, efficiency and speed are crucial. We built Mindcrate to leverage these technologies to significantly reduce workload and help soloists and agency pros move faster.
Our Vision
Mindcrate is dedicated to providing a fast and accurate task + document automation platform for the SMB agencies and freelancers.
Our Commitment
Built for Our Tribe: We design our products specifically for agency professionals, freelancers, solopreneurs, startups, and small businesses.
Effective Tools: We strive to create products that actually work well and make a difference for you, and us.
Always Listening: Reach out to us anytime via email, phone, SMS, or carrier pigeon! Seriously, we want to hear from you.

Why the name Mindcrate?
Our founder, Tim Perry, has a background as a college radio DJ and mobile/club DJ. In the vinyl days, DJs would carry their records in milk crates, each crate meticulously organized with a playlist of records guaranteed to rock the party. Mindcrate is a metaphor for this process – it helps you compile your "killer set" of ideas, proposals, and documentation to save you time, win deals and grow your business.
