Mobile utility studio · Est. MMXXVI
Small apps, shipped patiently.
We are a small studio that ships native iOS and Android utility apps in six fixed categories. Patient timelines, tight commits, no theatre.
/ 01 — what we build
Categories
we work in.
We work in a fixed set of utility categories. We do not take on every kind of app — the scope of what we know how to ship well is the scope of what we ship.

Scanners.
— documents, receipts, codes — edge detection done right

Converters.
— files in, files out — original stays where it was

Privacy utilities.
— local-first apps, transparent about what they touch

in detail.
We are a small studio on purpose. The team is small enough that the person who designs a screen is the person who ships it, and the person who reads the support email is the person who fixes the bug. There is no hand-off layer between thinking and shipping.
We ship native iOS and native Android because phones are not browsers. Cross-platform UI looks fine in a demo and worse in the field. Our maintenance cost is lower because of this, not higher.
We are good at the unsexy compounding work — the empty state that finishes the feature, the migration that does not lose data, the settings screen the user finds on their second visit. We are not the right fit for anyone hoping to win an award next quarter.
/ 02 — get in touch
Email is the channel.
We watch the inbox during the working day and reply by the next one. If your project has a real deadline, put a date in the subject line and we will prioritise honestly.
