Katsudon.tech ensures you hit the ground running by building bespoke developer relations strategies, and providing the effort to put those strategies in motion. With our help, you will move faster, while avoiding costly mistakes from the start. And your first permanent hires will appreciate having the path blazed for them.
You want developers using your products. And they are more likely to do that when their colleagues trust your products. DevRel is the art and science of building strong relationships with developers, so they are more likely to try—and fall in love with—your product.
DevRel requires more than marketing. We go beyond marketing to teach you how to build products developers love. From social media to developer experience, content to community, we understand that DevRel is more than just awareness—DevRel builds relationships.
Dig a little deeper into what developer relations is, and how we approach it.

I've followed Don and his work at Slack and GitHub over many years and was incredibly excited when I was able to work with him on our DevRel strategy at CoScreen. His reputation in the space and his tremendous expertise helped us shape our product positioning, define our developer-focused messaging, and our community and outreach efforts on all major channels. I'm deeply thankful that I was able to rely on his invaluable advice through all phases of our company up to our acquisition.
