Alex Montague

Creative technologist

I'm a co-founder of Metro Mobility, and was on the founding team at Nametag. I've also done projects for Shark vacuums and Universal Tennis, studied psychology and human-centered design at Dartmouth, built an app with over 160,000 users, and run a 4:19 mile.

Nametag identity verification illustration

Nametag is a vision-based authenticator that helps many of the world's biggest tech companies keep AI deepfakes out while letting their real employees in. I was the fifth hire at Nametag, and led everything from technical product design (patents pending) to branding and marketing – taking it from a fledgling startup with no product to a brand trusted by Reddit, Hubspot, Autodesk, and many more.

Metro Mobility charging dock rendering

Metro Mobility is a bid to make e-bikes and scooters actually affordable, with charging docks at a fraction of the price of 'dumb', non-charging docks that are standard in US cities and around the world. We operate over 250 docks in Massachusetts, and have customer deployments at 15 hotels in California. Read about us in Fast Company or The Boston Globe!
