Notes from our studio on product, brand, and the thoughtful work behind useful digital experiences.
Artificial Intelligence
AI-generated content is entering a new era of invisible watermarks, provenance data, and content credentials. But will these technologies actually solve the problem of knowing what is real?
Linux
Linux is still far from replacing Windows on the desktop, but gaming is changing the equation. SteamOS, Steam Deck and compatibility technology are giving Linux a much bigger role.
Artificial Intelligence
Open-weight AI models are moving from an alternative to a serious foundation for modern AI development, giving developers more control over cost, deployment and customization.
AI Industry
Open-weight AI is becoming a strategic issue as developers seek cheaper, more customizable models and countries compete to shape the next AI ecosystem.
Artificial Intelligence
Developers are downloading smaller AI models at enormous scale. Here is why efficient models may matter more than trillion-parameter headlines.
Web Technology
AI agents are becoming active participants on the web. The x402 protocol aims to give agents and software a native way to pay for APIs and digital services.
Dev Projects
Mindmerge is a self-hosted coding agent with a real plan-execute-verify loop, a live file explorer, and zero dependency on OpenAI, Anthropic, or any cloud API — everything runs through Ollama on your own machine.
AI Tools
Skip the 40-tool hype lists. Here's the lean AI stack founders are actually paying for in 2026 — one tool per job, ranked by what it replaces on your team.
Product thinking
A useful digital product is more than a tidy interface. It earns a place in someone's day by making the next step feel obvious.
Brand systems
The strongest identities are built to move: across a launch deck, a support email, a storefront, and every small moment in between.
Design practice
Attention is expensive. We make digital spaces that respect it: focused journeys, intentional motion, and content with room to breathe.
