Independent studio born in Mexico. Source: https://yungle.ai/about/ About Yungle # The websites marketing teams love to use. Yungle is an independent web design and development studio from Mexico City. Most websites still belong to development. Every change waits in a queue, and marketing can't move as fast as the market. We build sites that marketing teams own: designed for your buyers, built for the people who run them after launch. Born in Mexico Our story ↓ _Image: Engraved illustration of Lake Pátzcuaro, Michoacán: a hillside village above calm water and a fishing boat_ Why Yungle exists ## We were our own first client. I wanted to build many different businesses, across different industries. At one point I was running three at once, and I noticed they all needed the same thing: marketing and sales that actually worked. So instead of solving it three times, I built one company to solve it for all of them. That company is Yungle. — Jorge, Founder _Image: Engraved illustration of the Tamul waterfall falling into a jungle canyon_ _Image: Engraved illustration of a giant tree with hanging moss beside a river in the Lacandon jungle_ ## Why "Yungle"? We love everything natural, and we were looking for a word that meant diversity. A jungle is exactly that: countless different species growing in the same place, all fed by the same system. That's what we wanted to be for the businesses we work with. Every jungle domain was taken, and the name was crowded. So we kept the idea and changed one letter. How we got here ## From a side hustle to a growth partner. 1. _Image: Engraved illustration of the canals and trees of Xochimilco_ ### The first site. A free website for a school. It grew so much that I left university to commit to Yungle full time. 2. _Image: Engraved illustration of the Agua Azul cascades surrounded by palms_ ### Growing up. We grew to a team of eight. We learned that more people doesn't mean better work. 3. _Image: Engraved illustration of the Sumidero Canyon with a river between steep cliffs_ ### Getting lean. We rebuilt around a small core team and a curated network of specialists. 4. _Image: Engraved illustration of cypress trees and green hills in the Sierra Gorda_ ### Today. 100+ websites for brands, plus 20+ projects for clients of top NYC studios. Manifesto ## What we stand for. And against. Eight rules we work by, with brands and with studios. _Image: Engraved illustration of Las Pozas in Xilitla: gothic concrete arches and stairs overgrown by the rainforest_ Inspired by Las Pozas, Xilitla, MX ### We stand for 1. The simpler solution. It's usually the right one. 2. Fixing it fast. Then finding out why, so it doesn't happen again. 3. Caring about your site, your team, and the planet it runs on. ### We're against 4. Websites that weigh more than an apple. 5. Meetings that could have been a message. 6. Long texts that say nothing. 7. Overkill. 8. Drama and dishonesty. ## The people behind it.

Yungle was born in Mexico, a country where jungle grows through stone. In Las Pozas, Xilitla, concrete arches stand inside the rainforest, and the forest keeps growing around them. That's how we see websites: a solid structure that stays alive and keeps growing after launch. _Image: Engraved illustration of Las Pozas in Xilitla: gothic concrete arches and stairs overgrown by the rainforest_ Inspired by Las Pozas, Xilitla, MX Next step ## Let's talk _Image: Engraving of a jungle panorama with mountains_ Inspired by Tulum, QROO, MX
