Principles

Small studio, high bar.

The rules every product we ship has to follow.

Local-first and private

Your data stays in your browser. No accounts, no analytics, no selling data. Ever.

Focused, not bloated

One clear job per product. If a feature doesn't earn its place, it doesn't ship.

Fast by default

Instant search, one-click actions and keyboard-friendly interfaces that feel native.

Fair pricing

A genuinely useful free tier, simple upgrades and a 14-day refund window.
