Software on your side.

For problems big companies won't touch.

One app shipping — Three in the studio — Founded 2025.
01 / Thesis Why a studio, why now.

Most software still asks humans to bend to the machine. We think the arrow should run the other way.

AI is a leverage event, not a product category. A small team can now tackle problems that used to require a company — and do it with more care, not less.

So we pick problems that big companies won't touch, build quiet tools that respect the humans using them, and ship.

Then — 1995
The internet gave anyone a voice that could reach millions.
Now — 2026
AI gives anyone the software team to match.
