Team

The people behind the plugins.

Darwin Labs is small on purpose. The people who build the plugins are the people who answer you.

Oderic Nisen Development lead
Builds Darwin AI and Side Kick. Also leads development at Darwin, our agency, which is where both plugins started.
Matt Hughes Founder & Technical Director, Darwin
Matt is the founder of Darwin and Managing Editor of Global Good. He started freelancing at 14, grew his first agency to a 20-person team and £1.4m turnover, and has spent eight years teaching marketing alongside it. Darwin is deliberately small: a business that puts people first and helps impact-led organisations grow.
Ben Kansy Co-founder & Creative Director, Darwin
Ben is a trained journalist and multimedia content creator. Throughout his career he has worked with leading brands to create high-converting content that boosts brand presence and drives site visits. His background in journalism, digital design and multimedia production means he develops and executes well-rounded creative strategies for maximum impact.

But if you build for WordPress and like how we work, say hello.

Our sister agency builds websites, bespoke plugins and the marketing around them. Our plugins run on their client sites first.
