Opening soon
The Circle is nearly open.
One membership, three things: the first look at everything we make, a quiet letter from the workshop, and a place among the people funding the work.
No dues yet · No mailing list yet · Just an open door
Three strands, one membership. You get all of it.
First Looks
Before anyone else.
Beta invites to every app we build, early builds to break, and the occasional physical thing sent to your door before it exists anywhere else.
- TestFlight and early web builds
- A say in what we fix first
- Named in the app, if you want to be
The Letter
An occasional note, never a newsletter.
What we are making, what broke, what we learned, and what we are reading. Sent when there is something worth saying, and not one week sooner.
- Roughly monthly, sometimes less
- Written by hand, not by committee
- No tracking, no drip campaign
Founding Members
For the people who make it possible.
A small group choosing to fund independent, slow-built software. Founding status is kept for life, along with everything that comes after.
- Lifetime access to every app
- A hand in shaping the roadmap
- Kept to a genuinely small number
A circle is not an audience. It is the small number of people who get to know a thing while it is still being made.
We are not building a list to sell to. There will never be a sponsored letter, a referral scheme, or a reason to email you that is really a reason to email ourselves. When the doors open, membership will be small on purpose.
There is no form yet.
We would rather open the door properly than collect addresses we are not ready to write to. If you want to be among the first, say so — a real person reads it, and your note will be the first one answered.
