Each one has its own site. Here's what they do and where to get them.

01

Orma

Available

Your whole day, in one clear picture.

Orma quietly tracks where your time goes: every app, every coding session, every song, your heart rate and your sleep. It turns all of that into one dashboard, weekly insights and correlations you'd never spot yourself. It has a public API and an MCP server for your AI tools. Free during early access. Formerly called xeve.

Cribbit app icon
02

Cribbit

Beta

A baby monitor made of two phones.

One phone watches, the other tells you. It uses live video and cry detection that knows a cry from a door, and every frame is timestamped so the picture can't lie. No account, no cloud, no internet.

■ iPhone · iPad · Apple Watch

Rogr app icon
03

Rogr

Coming soon

Talk when there's no signal.

A walkie-talkie for iPhone that works phone to phone over peer-to-peer Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Built for festivals, treks, ski slopes and cruises, with crews, open channels, friend finding and SOS.

■ iPhone

DriveStream app icon
04

DriveStream

Beta

Ride together. Stay in sync.

Group road trips without the "where are you?" calls. Everyone's car is on one live map, everyone shares one destination, the fuel gauge is visible to the whole convoy, and there's a hands-free press-to-talk channel.

TidyBug app icon
05

TidyBug

Available

Reclaim your disk. Precisely.

TidyBug finds regenerable caches, build artifacts, duplicates and forgotten installers on your Mac. It shows exactly what each item is, and moves only what you approve to the Trash. Free, open source, and notarized by Apple.

■ Mac · macOS 26

Gobbl app icon
06

Gobbl

Available

Your notch has a pet.

Gob, a tiny retro computer, moves into your MacBook's notch. It holds your files and clipboard, plays your music, takes dictation and writes in any app, and cheers on Claude Code. Free and open source, with no account.

■ Mac · macOS 14+

02How we build

The same principles run through everything we make.

Private by default

Cribbit and Rogr have no server at all: your video and voice travel straight between your devices. DriveStream ships with no analytics library.

Works offline

A baby monitor that works with the Wi-Fi off. A radio for places with no signal. Your apps shouldn't give up just because the internet does.

Pay once

Where there's a paid tier, it's a single payment that works on every device your family owns, not another subscription.

Honest about limits

If iOS won't let a camera run in the background, or a phone's radio only reaches tens of metres, we tell you so on the page.
