What Dauntless does

Dauntless is a UK-based, full-service digital transformation agency delivering strategy, design, development and video production services to global enterprises and growth-stage SMEs. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in London (with a listed Leatherhead mailing presence), the company has operated on a 100% remote, globally distributed model since early 2019, enabling a small crew (11–50 employees) to serve clients across multiple time zones. Its three core service lines — Digital Strategy, Creative & Design, and Development & Engineering — are complemented by an in-house Video & Motion Graphics capability covering VR, 360°, AR, animated web graphics and commercials.

Underlying technology includes modern web stacks such as React and Next.JS on a headless CMS for corporate websites (e.g., Vodafone.com), bespoke multi-site CMS architectures on WordPress (e.g., MarketForce Live), and cloud-based enterprise platforms (e.g., the Apple Device Enrollment App unveiled at WWDC 2018). Delivered products span recruitment portals with immersive video (Amazon EMEA), device enrolment platforms (Apple), corporate and non-profit websites (Vodafone, Vodafone Foundation), equipment rental ecosystems (BlueLine Rental), and full digital sales and marketing ecosystems (United Site Services, MarketForce Live).

Dauntless generates revenue through project-based professional services engagements — strategy consulting, UX/UI design, web and app development, video production, and digital transformation programmes — sold directly to enterprise clients and SMEs via consultative field sales, content marketing, and Typeform-driven inbound enquiries. Pricing is bespoke and not publicly disclosed, and the agency is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or institutional investors. Leadership comprises CEO Glen Davison and Chief Digital Officer Josh Chesney.
