§ The studio · est. small

Tools that do their job. Then leave you alone.

Stellandra is an independent studio. We build the tools we want on our own phones — each one does one job, properly. No dark patterns, no guilt mechanics, no data sold. The tool does its work, then gives you your time back.

The number, and how sure it is

550kcal

413688

It reports 550 — and prints the 413–688 range that number came from. Right panel, unretouched.

Two real screens from AI Calorie Camera: an AI scan result showing the photo, a “Medium confidence” label and per-item grams; and the nutrition panel printing an estimated range of 413–688 kcal around the 550 kcal it reports.

Point it at a plate. It commits to a number — and shows the range that number came from.

The app finishing a scan of a Buddha Bowl: it reports 450 kcal, and prints the 338–563 kcal range that number came from.

§ 01½ · The shelf

A short shelf — every app earns its spot.

No app factory here. Each of these exists because a small, real problem annoyed us enough to fix it properly.

AI Calorie Camera

Calorie tracking that never resets on you.

Two real screens from AI Calorie Camera: the Log Meal home with a “Snap Your Meal” card reading “10 free scans left”; and the AI Scan summary printing 550 calories for a salmon steak with grilled potato and salad, broken into 40g protein, 35g carbs and 25g fat.

Two real screens from Attic: an identification result for a gilt bronze mantel clock with a muse figure, valued at $2,625–$4,375 “based on comparable sales”; and the collection wall, a grid of nine photographed objects where two of them read “No estimate” instead of a price.

We ship when a thing is genuinely good, not when a roadmap says so. Peek at any card to see what it actually does.

§ The proofs · not for sale

Nothing here exists yet.

These are proofs — real screens pulled from a build that is not finished. There is no App Store listing, nothing to install, no date and no price. They are here so we find out which one is worth finishing first.

In the workshopNot on the App Store · nothing to install

Crease

It looks at the creases in your hand and says one thing about you.

Open your palm at the camera. It traces the creases it can actually make out, then writes a single observation. No daily horoscope, no feed, no streak to keep.

One observation per reading. The rest stays locked.
When the photo is too soft to read, it says so instead of guessing.
iOS first. Not submitted for review.
Concept image — not the finished appTwo screens from an unfinished iOS build. Left: a photographed palm with one crease traced, under the heading “Observation 01 — a long crease that runs all the way to the wrist”, followed by the line “You finish things. That is not the same as enjoying them.” Right: a photo too blurred to read, headed “This plate will not clear”, where the app says not one crease came through clearly enough to follow and offers Retake or Read it anyway.

Saying you would use one of these costs nothing and commits you to nothing. We are not taking money for anything on this page, and we will not until it is a real app you can install.

§ 01 · The playground

Stuff you can play with right now.

The apps are still in the oven, but the workshop is open: free calculators, honest food data, and guides with zero email walls. Go on, poke around.

All free, all no-account. The only thing we'll ever ask for is an email — and only if you want the launch news.

  1. 01

    One thing, done well

    Each app has a single job and a clear edge. We would rather ship a small thing that is genuinely good than a bloated thing that is merely fine.

  2. 02

    No dark patterns

    No fake urgency, no buried unsubscribe, no guilt notifications. The cancel button is exactly where you expect it. We win only if the app is worth keeping.

  3. 03

    Your data is yours

    We collect the minimum to make the app work, we never sell it, and we tell you plainly what we keep. Private by default, on-device where we can.

  4. 04

    A human answers

    We are small enough that a real person reads your email — usually the person who wrote the code. No ticket queue, no bot wall.

§ 02 · What we believe

Most apps want your attention. Ours want to be useful and get out of the way.

There's no growth team here optimizing for your screen time. We build things we want on our own phones, put a price on them, and get back to work.

Say hello

§ 02½ · Build with us

The roadmap listens.

No growth team also means no committee between you and the person writing the code. Tell us what the app should do — the best ideas get built, and paid for.

You write the idea

Describe the feature you want — in any of our apps. Specific beats polite; detail raises your odds.

Adopted ideas get paid

If we ship it, you earn 100 credits, tied to your email. Good ideas are work, and work gets paid.

Credits become Pro time

Once the app is live, credits redeem for Pro subscription time — more ways to spend them later.

Tell us what to build

A human reads every submission. What gets built is our call — but every idea gets read.

§ 03 · Follow along

Watch the shelf fill up.

Every app has its own page — poke around, leave your email if you like what you see. We only write when there's something real to ship: no drip campaigns, no "just checking in."
