about nifty
We kept seeing the same problem
Great tools, but no real adoption. Consultants who delivered and disappeared. Builders who built but never understood the business.
The gap was always the same, no one owned the outcome.
So we built Nifty to do both. Design and build the system, then stay close to ensure it works.
The people behind Nifty
Andrew Akib – Co-founder
Andrew came up through Accenture and Deloitte before starting Nifty. His background is in digital transformation, from stakeholder management, to change programs and adoption.
At Nifty, he drives how we engage, how we deliver, and how we stay accountable to outcomes.
Nathan coffey – co-founder
Nathan spent two and a half years as Airtable’s top internal consultant before co-founding Nifty. In that time he built over 500 systems across industries, developing a rare ability to see both the product and problem at the same time.
At Nifty, he focuses on making sure what we build is structured properly and enabled for scale.
How we work
Five things that are true of every engagement we run.
We show up with working tools
We don’t come in with slides and talk about what we might build.
We bring real tools into the room and work from there, so you can see how it actually functions.
We deliver outcomes, not outputs.
It’s easy to ship something and call it done.
We stay focused on whether it’s being used and whether it’s solving the problem it was meant to.
We engage early and communicate clearly.
If something isn’t right, we’ll say it early.
We’d rather have a direct conversation than let things drift or get lost in long documents.
We become part of your team.
We don’t sit on the outside and throw work over the fence.
We work alongside your team so we understand the context and can move things forward properly.
We keep it simple.
There’s always a temptation to overbuild.
We focus on what’s needed, get it working, and make sure it can be maintained after we step back.
Let's start a conversation.
Whether you’ve got a full brief or just an idea, we’re happy to chat and help you figure out what’s next.
