About

Built the way we run it.

The Smithy is a Glass Umbrella Inc company, founded and run from Virginia, USA. Before we operated anyone else's business, we built the workshop to run our own: same coworkers, same operating loop, same weekly numbers, this site included. What we sell is what we use.

Why "The Smithy"

A smithy is a working shop: heat, iron, and a smith who takes responsibility for what leaves the anvil. That's the standard here.

The founder

The discovery call, the approval on every change that ships, the response when something matters — all the founder. The roster is deliberately small.
