Get to Know Us

Alipes is a full-service digital agency focused on moving audiences to action. We produce results for clients that activate excitement, galvanize engagement, and establish influence on the audiences that matter most to them. We specialize in innovative digital experiences and communications campaigns that seamlessly blend strategy, messaging, technology, design, execution, and measurement.

We’re small, and sometimes that means flying under the radar. We’re comfortable with our level of anonymity. It’s what makes us special. We’re like your favorite band before they go mainstream. Though knowing of us may give you some street cred, you probably have some questions about who we really are.   

Pronounced “ah-lip-eez”

Ya, this is a hard one. Don’t beat yourself up. We got our name from Greek mythology and the legend of Hermes. Hermes was better known amongst his friends as Alipes. He was the messenger of the gods and like him, we’re here to help tell your story.   

Boston-based agency

We’re located in Boston’s North End. We may have a tendency to drink too much Dunkin and drop our “r’s,” but we’re proud of where we come from. Though New England is our home, we serve clients throughout the US, even if they don’t root for the Patriots.

Proudly independent

We swim less than an hour after eating. We sample our dessert before dinner. We take risks and play by our own rules. Our independence gives us flexibility and our flexibility is what makes us different from other agencies.

Founded in 2003

It’s not polite to ask someone's age, but we’re proud of every wrinkle we’ve earned.

Nonprofits to Fortune 100s

We judge a book by its content not by its cover. Our values are at the heart of everything we do. We’ll partner with the big guys or the little ones as long as there's respect, kindness, and a desire to create something amazing. Sound like you? Step into our office. 

Agile methodology

We’re determined, nerdy, and agile by design. We’re the mad scientists who can’t stop tinkering. Our cross-functional approach, which is inspired by best practices in software development, encourages flexibility and rapid responsiveness to external changes that can impact a project, enabling teams to stay on task and on deadline even when circumstances change. The approach involves adaptive planning, evolutionary development, early delivery, and continuous process improvement. It also allows us to interact with your team to make sure everyone is aligned throughout the various project stages. Priorities, deliverables, and timelines shift during any project. Our laces are always tied and we’re ready to pivot at a moment’s notice if needed. 

We hope this blog helped fill in some gaps about what makes us different. If you’re interested in learning more, shoot us a line. We’d love to chat.
