a new category

we call it company
culture
as a service.

Quotelijst is our first form. One small, daily tool that captures culture not in posters, but in habits. More forms are coming — they just haven't shipped yet.

Manifesto

the real story.

Culture doesn't live in your offsite. It lives in what was said by Tim at the standup on May 3.
— How it started —

Quotelijst started years ago as a private joke at Traffic Builders in Almere. Tije kept track of the things his colleagues said. A text document. Nothing fancy.

At some point it became a ritual. Every new tab a quote, a little jolt of recognition, and back to work. Nobody planned for this to become "culture" — it just did.

Once we realised the ritual wasn't about the quotes, but about the feeling that you're part of something— we started sharing it. That's why Quotelijst isn't a tool. It's a small, daily reminder of who you are together.

Index

six things
it does.

01
01

a random quote, every tab

No algorithm. No AI curation. Pure entropy. Sometimes the same quote three times in a row — that's called karma.

02
02

add your own quotes

Heard someone say something daft? Immortalise it on the spot. A few taps and it's canon.

03
03

customise the look & feel

Pick your own colours, fonts and background. Make it dull grey or neon pink — whatever your colleagues deserve.

04
04

import existing lists

Already have a spreadsheet, Notion page or Slack channel full of quotes? One upload and it's all in.

05
05

order merch with your quotes

Mugs, t-shirts, posters, a box of stickers for your team day. Print-on-demand, boss pleasantly startled.

06
06

privacy by default

Zero tracking. Zero cookies. Zero accounts if you'd rather not. Your quotes stay yours — or your team's.

07

laugh daily.

not a feature — a side effect. included in every plan, free, unsolicited.

✱ included
How it works

three steps.
zero onboarding.

01

import what
you already have.

CSV, spreadsheet, Notion or a long-forgotten Slack channel — upload it and your whole archive is in. We do the first import for free.

02

invite your team.

One install link, magic-link login, done. No IT tickets, no 47-page onboarding PDF.

03

celebrate your
culture.

A quote in every new tab. A winner every month. And at the end of the year, a Yearbook nobody saw coming.

Claim to fame

a small selection
of real classics.

Who's it for?

every kind of team.
the same ritual.

01

agencies

Studio life produces gold. New hires get a five-year highlight reel on day one — instead of a 47-page PDF.

“Is this a client brief? Or a meme?”

02

dev teams

Turns that forgotten Slack #quotes channel into a ritual that lives in every new tab. Stand-up gold, archived at last.

“It works on my machine.”

03

sales floors

Quote of the Month + a poster on the wall = a culture you can feel. And a sales rep strutting around with their very own quote.

“I'm in the car right now, actually.”

04

remote teams

The lightweight ritual that makes a remote team still feel like a team. Not another tool screaming for attention — one moment per tab.

“You're still on mute.”

By the numbers

the numbers.

Quotelijst — new tab quotes

offered by tije.io
★★★★★4.9 (132 ratings)·Productivity

“Inject humor into your team's workflow. Random, funny office quotes straight to your new browser tabs.”

what we actually mean

it's a little reminder of who you are together.

The sentence above — that's what people google. It's accurate, and it gets us into the store. But what happens when you install it is something other than “injecting humor into your workflow”.

What happens: you open a tab. You read a sentence. You recognise a colleague. You smile. And the rest of your day feels a little less like going it alone.

— that sentence doesn't fit in an SEO tag.
Questions

frequently asked questions.

is this serious?+
Half. The extension is real. Most of the site is too. The animations are 100% serious.
why would I install this?+
Because your colleagues say beautiful things and nobody listens. Until now. Also, your new tab is currently a sad grid of bookmarks you never click.
does it work in firefox?+
Yes! Chrome, Edge and Firefox — all three. Safari follows as soon as Tije has a free weekend.
what does it cost?+
Start-up is €7.50/month for your whole team (up to 10 users). SMB is €1 per user, Corporate €1.25. See pricing →
can I upload my own quotes?+
Absolutely. CSV, Notion export, Slack archive, or good old copy-paste. One-off import or continuous sync — both work.
can I customise the look & feel?+
Yes. Colours, fonts, backgrounds, layouts. Make it as loud or as dull as your colleagues deserve.
is there merch?+
Yes — print-on-demand mugs, shirts, posters and stickers with your quotes on them. The perfect gift for the colleague who actually said it.
