Apps owned by the people who use them
Try every app free. One $5 payment — never again — unlocks all of them for real, plus Cast, our $20 voice studio, free. Not a subscription. Every app runs at its true cost on a public bill — even the team is a line on it — and nothing is skimmed off the top.
The workshop
Read later — a calm, ad-free home for everyone Pocket left behind. Save a link, get a clean reader.
Your money in one calm place — accounts, budgets, where it went. For everyone Mint left behind.
Calm notes in markdown, yours to keep — and to publish. For everyone Evernote left behind.
AI voice studio — our $20 app, free to download for every member as it joins the portfolio.
A private document scanner that works entirely on your device — for everyone Microsoft Lens left behind.
Whatever gets killed or walled off next, we rebuild to belong to you — and you choose which.
You steer
Real votes, not a mockup. Vote and propose now, free; membership adds weight to your voice once it opens.
The money, in three lines
Every app has a live demo — the whole thing, on sample data, no account needed. See exactly how it works before you pay a cent.
One payment unlocks using every app we build — Haven, Means, and 10+ more landing this year — plus Cast, our $20 macOS voice studio, free. It funds a small team to build full-time and verifies you're a real person, which keeps the apps and the votes honest. The only money the company ever takes from you. Not a subscription. Not equity. Not a stake you can sell.
Each app shows what it costs to run, per person — usually pennies — and the team is a line on that same public bill. As the portfolio grows the bill grows with it, covered openly: voluntary chip-ins first, opt-in ad slots only as a last resort. No markup ever sits on top, because there's nothing above cost to take.
You won't own a share of any of this, and that's deliberate — a token you could flip would just rebuild the casino we're leaving. What you get is sturdier than equity: a say in what gets built, and apps that can't be turned against you. Read the manifesto →
Five dollars, once. Every app we ever build — at cost, on a public bill, with your say in what comes next.
