ABOUT US

 

 

Crusher is a free service for sending invites.

Make engaging invites using photos, video, etc. It's a great utility with RSVP, maps, a date poll, PayPal, bring-list, and an 'add to calendar' feature.

For organizations, Crusher can extend your current site with an invitation service that carries over your brand and look/feel.

Russell (left), Ericson (right) in the living room of a living room start-up.

We are an ultra-small independent group of designer/developers in the Bay area who decided to work on their own invitation service out of frustrations with Evite and the unbelievable lack of better options. Crusher's process is based on agile development principles, good user experience, and personal customer relationships.

Why the "3" in the URL?

Because all plain English words were already taken. Believe us, we tried hard to get CRUSHER.com but the folks sitting on it weren't returning our calls. "Please, we don't need the whole word. We already have most of it. We just want to buy a vowel!" exclaims Doug ...(dial tone). And we're not about to settle for a made-up name like every other start-up out there. We were set on the name "Crusher", so we went with CRUSH3R.com for an address. If you dislike the number three we've got a back-up for you. We figured if we can't have the word, then we'll have it twice (: ...you can go to crushercrusher.com and find us there as well.
