Architected · Commissioned · Launched

The right one is never off the shelf.

Most software is built for everyone, which is why it fits no one in particular. We make the other kind. Seven products of our own, free to try, and a few builds a year designed, fitted and finished for the person who asked.

Portfolio

Seven titles
01

Meetingpad

One schedule across every calendar you live in.

Consultants and fractional operators run their week inside several client Workspaces at once. Meetingpad gathers that availability into one Mac menubar, so nothing double-books and a single link works for everyone.

02

Pinpoint

Pin a comment on anything, get back a checklist.

Feedback arrives as a thread and dies there. Pinpoint anchors each comment to the thing it is about, then collapses the lot into a deduplicated list of actions that lands in the tracker your team already uses.

03

RaceAtlas

Know the current before the gun.

A tidal current atlas for San Francisco Bay, indexed to the tide cycle rather than the clock. Split-tack scenarios, historical snapshots and race playback, for the people who win races on current.

04

Campaign Previewer

See the campaign before it ships.

Every post, on every platform, as it will actually appear. Threaded review, explicit approval, then scheduling. Built so agents can do the drafting and people are still the ones who say yes.

05

Club Trophies

Nominations, from open call to awards night.

Built on commission for a yacht club. Members nominate, the committee deliberates, the ballot closes and the awards list comes out, with reminder mail and nightly backups running behind it.

06

Tiki Notes

Meetings captured, nothing uploaded.

Menubar capture with transcription that runs on the machine and stays there. Built for ourselves, kept because we use it every day.

Productivity · macOS In house
07

VoiceReply

Voicemail, delegated and declared.

Hand a callback to an assistant that says plainly what it is, to whoever picks up. In build.

Communications Under way

Designed, not assembled.

01

One idea, carried through

A product is a single idea taken all the way, not a list of features bolted together. That is what keeps the surface small while the thing underneath stays complete.

02

We run what we build

Every title here is operated, not just shipped. Our own infrastructure, our own deployments, our own pager. Software that nobody operates stops working quietly.

03

Fit and finish

The last ten per cent is the part people feel, and it is the part that always gets cut when a deadline arrives. It is also most of the reason anyone chooses one thing over another.

Commissions

Commission a build.

Most software a small business needs already exists. The rest is the part that would actually change how the place runs, and no one sells it, because it is specific to you.

That is the work we take on: a handful of commissions a year, built to the same standard as anything in the portfolio, and operated afterwards if you want it operated.
