A SMALL STUDIO IN A BIG UNIVERSE

Birds.
We make tiny software
for curious people.
Independent apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac —
built because we wanted them to exist.

01 / OUR CURIOSITIESSMALL IDEAS, TAKING FLIGHT
Things we couldn’t
stop thinking about.
Useful little things.
With a life of their own.
Inside the idea +
What if your windows belonged to a thought, instead of a pile? Orbit explores small, intentional workspaces for your Mac. Try Create and Focus in the preview above to see the direction. This is an interactive concept, with no download or release date yet.
02 / THE FLOCKDIFFERENT FEATHERS. SHARED CURIOSITY.
Small team.
Big curiosity.
A few personalities.
An unreasonable number of ideas.
01 — THE CURIOUS ONE
Asks “what if?” approximately 47 times a day.
02 — THE EXPLORER
Takes the scenic route. Usually finds something.
03 — THE BUILDER
Builds things that probably didn’t need to exist.
Our studio alter egos. Same birds, different hats.
03 / THE STUDIOINDEPENDENT, AND INTENTIONALLY SMALL
Small software.
Made with
curiosity.
We’re an independent studio exploring small ideas, useful tools and delightful experiences for Apple’s platforms.
Built with care. A little off the beaten path.
Always with a reason to exist.

04 / STILL EXPLORINGNOT EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE A PRODUCT
From the
field notes.
Half-formed thoughts. Happy detours.
A look inside our curious heads.
01Building tiny Mac apps
DEVELOPMENT+
A smaller window into a better day.
The best tools can have a very small job. We’re interested in apps that remove one little friction, work quietly, and feel at home on your Mac. Orbit is our first sketch of that idea.
02Designing delightful interactions
DESIGN+
A little feeling, in the details.
A button that responds at just the right moment. A transition that helps you find your place. Delight starts with making something understandable, then adding a little warmth.
03Exploring SwiftUI
EXPERIMENTS+
Learning by making something small.
Our sketchbook is full of little interface experiments: a new way to browse, a softer transition, a control that feels good to touch. Small prototypes give curious ideas room to grow.
04Making software feel more human
STUDIO NOTES+
Useful is the beginning.
We like software with a point of view, a sense of care, and room to breathe. Fewer interruptions. Clear words. Thoughtful defaults. Tools that fit into your life and leave you a little more space.
