Our Story
We are Austin and Brennan, the co-founders of SLEKE.
Our inspiration for reimagining mobile phone software developed over several years as we worked, studied, and traveled in incredible locations around the world including China, England Malaysia, Morocco, and Thailand.
​
One random sunny day in 2019, we noted the stark contrast between the amount of time we spent with our heads down (absorbed in our phones), and the moments when our heads were up (living the life in front of us). As time passed, this realization fueled a growing desire to live anchored in the present, to fully engage with the diverse people, beauty, and experiences surrounding us.
​
Fast forward to early 2023, with us still earnestly searching the market for viable solutions that would give us the communications and utility we need, without access to other distractions. Phone/life balance we call it.
​
That's when it struck us ... the answer was Simple., quite literally (Simple. was our original name. We left this in to pay homage to our past). And the rest, as they say, is history in the making.
