The Products

Three tools. One bench.

Different industries, one way of working: study the domain, build the smallest thing that does real work, then run it in production ourselves before anyone else does.

The Approach

We don't ship what we won't run ourselves.

01

Capital preservation first

Across every product, the default bias is to protect the downside before chasing the upside. Slow is fine. Wrong is not.

02

Local where it counts

Sensitive work stays on the user's machine. Sibyl processes calls with zero bytes sent. Privacy is an architecture choice, not a policy page.

03

Surgical engineering

Every line traces to a need. No abstractions for single-use code, no features nobody asked for. The smallest thing that does real work.
