Shopify product studio
Shopify apps for the back of the store
We build our own Shopify apps for receiving stock, counting it, and getting purchase orders right.

What we do
We make our own apps, then we run them
Most studios build software for other people. We build ours, ship it, and live with the results.
One job per app
Every app does one job well. You should understand it in five minutes, on your first shift.
Built for the stockroom
Our apps run on cheap phones, bad shop Wi-Fi, and gloved hands. We design for that day.
We answer our own support
The people who write the code reply to the emails. No ticket queue, no offshore script.
Products
What we build
Small, sharp tools for store operations. Each one fixes a job we watched go wrong.
More on the way
We are working on stocktakes and supplier price files next. Tell us what breaks in your stockroom and we will look at it.

Our standards
The rules we hold ourselves to, and the reason our apps feel different to use.
- 01
Fast on a bad phone
Every screen loads in under a second on a five-year-old Android. We test on one, on purpose.
- 02
Plain words
No jargon in the interface. If a screen needs a manual, we designed it wrong and we start again.
- 03
Least data possible
We store what the app needs to work and nothing else. You can export it or delete it whenever you like.
- 04
Feels like Shopify
We build on Shopify Polaris, so our apps look and behave like the admin your team already knows.
- 05
Works without signal
Scanning keeps working in the dead spot behind the shelves. Everything syncs when the phone finds Wi-Fi again.
- 06
A person, same day
Support goes to the team that built the thing. Send it during your day and it is answered overnight.
The team
Nine people, no middle layer
Engineers, designers and one patient support lead. Everyone here has worked a stockroom shift.
