01 —The studio

Small enough to care, deliberate enough to ship.

01

Private by default

Row-level security on every record. No selling, no sharing, no training models on your data. We treat your information the way we want ours treated.

02

Country-aware

Software that knows where it is. Local schedules, local schools, local payment rails — built in South Africa first, with sensible defaults everywhere else.

03

One thing, well

We work on one engagement at a time. The team you brief is the team that ships — no handoffs, no juniors learning on your dime, no surprises in week ten.

02 —Selected work

Kiduvo — a private health record for every child.

Retiring the paper folder under the bed.

Kiduvo is the complete health record every parent eventually wants — vaccines, illness, medications, growth, milestones and every doctor's letter, in one private, country-aware app.

We took the project from sketch to closed beta on Google Play in under a year — with row-level security on every record, curated South African vaccine schedules, family sharing, and one-tap PDF summaries that doctors actually read.
