About our company
Schematic delivers strategic design and technology solutions that are beautifully simple yet impressively powerful. We believe that creating engaging digital experiences is the best way to help our clients forge meaningful and lasting relationships with their customers.
Our teams work across all the digital platforms people use every day, including the Web, PCs, televisions, and mobile devices. Lots of times, the work we do blurs lines between those screens and others, so we’re always open to exploring new technologies and techniques.
We partner with world-class organizations such as ABC, BMW, Dell, GE, Microsoft, NBC, Nokia, Scholastic, and Target. Recently, we worked with Microsoft and NBC to bring over 3,500 hours of Beijing Olympics coverage to US viewers online, forever changing the Olympics-viewing experience. That’s our sweet spot – redefining how people interact with companies (and each other) through technology.
Of course none of this would be possible without the talented designers, strategists and technologists who make up the Schematic family. True, we try not to take ourselves too seriously, but our people are nothing to joke about.

Freelancing is my life. It's what I know, it's what I'm good at, and I can't imagine doing anything else. You can call me "Freddie the Freelancer"… because I'd prefer not to use my real name for reasons that I'll tell you about in a moment.
