About · Since 2019
Fourteen people on South Main who like the messy first version.
Ottavia Varner and Delmar Haskins started Sidecar after building three startups’ first products from a back table at a Little Rock coffee shop. The idea was simple: ride alongside founders for one quarter, then get out of the way.

What we believe
Four rules on the wall above the workbench.
1.
Ship by Friday
Something real, every week. A slide is not a demo.
2.
Sit where it hurts
Barns, kitchens, truck cabs, clinic back offices. We go to the user.
3.
Say the hard thing early
If a feature should not exist, you will hear it in week two, not week ten.
4.
Leave it better owned
The goal is a founder who no longer needs us. Most still call.
The team
Everyone you would work with.
14 people
The studio
An old print shop in the SoMa neighborhood.
We work from a two-story brick building on South Main Street, ten minutes from the airport. Founders who visit get the big table, the good coffee and a pin-up wall of everything we have sketched for them.
It is 10:00 a.m. in Little Rock. The studio is open.
