A clearer picture of every flight.
A tracking device is only part of the picture. We built software that connects to a crop duster’s tracker, bringing its flight information into a system people can use.

Problems
we’ve solved.
From a flight over a field to a question on a city block. The contexts change. Our starting point doesn’t.
A neighborhood’s knowledge, within reach.
Zone updates, available capital, answers to everyday questions. We built a chatbot that helps BID members find what they need—turning the district’s information into shared infrastructure.
Member information / Conversational access
The right paperwork. Without the hunt.
A shipment raises a specific set of questions. For a South African customs project, we built a retrieval system to help people find the relevant HS codes, legal forms, and requirements.
Document retrieval / Shipment information
Try the look.
Before the commitment.
Choosing a nail style shouldn’t mean guessing how it will look. We built an AI-powered iOS try-on experience that lets people explore different styles on their own hands.
Virtual try-on / Personal expression
Find the moment.
Keep the footage local.
Useful moments get buried in hours of video. Scene Ledger uses a local language model to process video frames on-device, making footage searchable without sending it to the cloud.
Video search / Local processing
Less searching.
More possibilities for your business.
Grants, tax breaks, and rebates are scattered across hundreds of agency pages. Rackup brings them into one assessment, helping New York City businesses discover support they might otherwise miss.

Our approach
Start with the problem.
Stay with it.
You don’t need a brief or a particular solution in mind. Just something that needs to change. We bring the curiosity, care, and ability to make a way forward.
- 01
Get close.
Understand the people, the context, and what’s actually getting in the way.
- 02
Find the right question.
Define what a good outcome looks like, before deciding what to build.
- 03
Make a way forward.
Explore, test, and build. Use technology where it helps. Keep the outcome in view.
The next problem could be yours.
What’s on
your mind?
A complicated challenge. A small frustration.
Something you can’t quite put into words.
We’d like to hear it.
