Our Philosophy

The best swordsman in the world doesn't need to fear the second best swordsman in the world.
No, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a sword in his hand before.
He doesn't do the thing he ought to do, and so the expert isn't prepared for him.
He does the thing he ought not to do, and often it catches the expert out and ends him on the spot.
- Mark Twain

At Algernon Solutions, we pride ourselves on creating products and solutions that are as unexpected as they are effective. We believe in the genius of radical ideas and ambitious dreams. We might say we think outside the box, but in truth we can't even see the box from where we are. Our programmers are clinicians, and our analysts have worked in homeless shelters. We've lived these problems, and that gives our technical work an edge others can't.

It also gives our work a humanity and passion that can be lost in data schemas and functions. We understand the need for transparency, which is why all of our products are open source. We know how thin the margins can be, so we make every solution deployable on the lowest cost hardware available. We get that the best providers in the world may not know how to type, and we respect the doctor who refuses to have a computer in their treatment room. Our products are designed from the ground for accessibility, availability, and ease. Because we know you can't afford anything else
