We didn’t just design Oyster. We lived it. Our team relocated for the dream job—then faced paperwork, housing chaos, culture shock, and isolation. It drained our focus and energy.
So we built what we wished we had: a service rooted in empathy. We care deeply about helping people feel safe, seen, and supported from day one.
