Beta

We built this because we were frustrated.

Not with any single app, but with the quiet assumption baked into almost every piece of software we used: that our data was theirs to keep, analyze, and monetize. Calendar events. Contact lists. Personal notes. Photo libraries. All of it living on someone else’s servers, under terms we didn’t negotiate.

So we built our own tools. Four apps that sync with Nextcloud — an open-source server you run yourself. Your data goes to your server. We never see it. We can’t hand it over, because we don’t have it.

What we believe.

Your notes, photos, contacts, and calendar are intimate. They shouldn’t live on someone else’s server.
Privacy should be a default, not a premium tier or a marketing claim.
Your files should be in open formats you can read anywhere, with or without us.
No third-party code, no telemetry, no analytics. What we say is what we do.
