We Believe...

• Swiping, tapping, and waiting for screens to load is inefficient
• A universal search UI can streamline this process
• Android should remain an open system
• The necessary data for a powerful universal search exists, but it needs to be cohesively integrated
• Respecting user data leads to long-term success. Your data stays on your device; we don't store or sell it (see exceptions for bug fixing below)
• We earn revenue by creating quality products. Sesame is a 100% voluntary purchase
• In user-centered development: visit www.reddit.com/r/sesame
