ABOUT
The people behind Aventide
Aventide is client management software for independent professionals and small teams: consultants, coaches, designers, agencies and creatives, whether they run one business or several.
We’re Christian Quiver and Eric Baxter. We’re building Aventide to give people more room for their craft, their clients and the life around their work.
Aventide is made by Second Spring Design Inc.
Meet Christian and Eric
Christian Quiver
Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer
I’ve worked at Amazon and with Google, helped nonprofits set up their technology, and spent the past five years supporting startup ventures. Across that work, I was the person choosing the software, connecting the tools and holding the scattered pieces together. I’m building Aventide because I wanted one place to think things through, keep track of my business and turn ideas into work I could move forward.
Eric Baxter
Cofounder and Chief Design Officer
I’ve spent 25 years in product design, mostly at agencies, for clients ranging from small studios to Amazon Alexa, Nike, Cisco and Google. Across all of it, the work I cared about was the work with clients, never the admin wrapped around it. At Aventide I lead design: the brand, the product and the system it runs on. I care about craft, clarity, and tools that are still working for you five years from now.
Why we’re building Aventide
Christian works in spirals, moving between ideas and making connections as he goes, and kept losing the thread when every part of the business lived in a different tool. Eric spent 25 years designing other people’s products, and when his wife asked what actually brings him joy, the honest answer was the work with clients, never the admin around it. Aventide is the thing we would both have wanted: one place that holds the business, so the people we build for can get back to the work.
What matters to us
More room for the work you care about.
Each morning Aventide shows you what needs attention today, so the day starts with a short list instead of six inboxes. Running a business should leave more time for the clients and the craft that made you start it.
Your judgment stays central.
Client drafts wait for your approval. A few things you turn on, like booking reminders, send on their own; the full list is on our information page.
Clarity is part of the product.
We say what Aventide does, what it does not do yet, and what it costs. Prices on our comparison pages carry the date we checked them, with a link to the source.
