We build apps and the AI that runs them.

What we're building, right now.

Malu
Education · Parenting · iOS
malu.kids · coming soon

A mobile app for parents of children 3-7. Turn the activity ideas you save from Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok into a real family playlist. Backed by a curated library of zero-prep games for when your own ideas run out.

Designed and led by Gabriela Amarie. AI-parsed activities, no kid data ever stored.

In development
Genome Risk Report
Health · Genomics · Web, iOS

A consumer platform that turns whole genome sequencing data into something you can actually read. Per-variant AI explanations, family-aware analysis, confidence-calibrated risk scoring, and a private-by-default architecture. Built from raw VCFs up.

Started as a tool for our own family. Extending to anyone with a WGS file.

Private beta
Nugbit
Productivity · Knowledge · Desktop

A personal knowledge operating system. Captures the scattered information in your life - meeting transcripts, AI conversations across every model, documents, agent memory - into one searchable knowledge base.

The persistent memory layer for your AI agents, via MCP. Local by default.
