An introduction.

Hello. 👋

We're Mike Mathieu, Matt Lerner, and Dave Peck.

Here at Front Seat, we're experimenting with new ideas that fall under the broad umbrella of "tech for good."

We're interested in:

  • Personal health. How can we use technology to help people live healthier lives?
  • Civic engagement. How can we use technology to help people participate in their communities?
  • Climate change. How can we use technology to help people live more sustainably?

Past projects include:

  • Walk Score - The leading measure of neighborhood walkability shown on more than 30,000 real estate websites.
  • Two Screens for Teachers - Helping teachers with a second computer monitor during COVID so they can see their students on one screen and lesson plans on another.
  • Dave's Redistricting - Empowering citizens to advocate for fair and transparent redistricting.
