Independent Studio

We build tools that
change perception.

We make apps about things we can't stop thinking about — how music looks, how time feels, and something else we're still figuring out. Self-funded. No permission needed.

Small team.
Obsessive craft.

We're a few people who make software about things that interest us. An app that turns sound into something you can see. An app that makes you feel your own mortality. Probably something unhinged next. We fund it all ourselves, which means the only people we have to convince are each other.

The Details Are the Whole Thing

We'll spend a week on a transition that lasts 300 milliseconds. We'll rewrite an audio pipeline because the latency was 4ms too high. Is that overkill? Maybe. We don't care.

Scratching Our Own Itch

Synthscape exists because we wanted to see our music. Finite exists because we kept thinking about time. Everything starts with something we can't find and can't stop wanting.

Beautifully Unrestricted

Nobody signs off on our ideas. Nobody tells us an app about death isn't marketable. That's the whole point of self-funding — we get to make the things that maybe shouldn't exist.

Honestly, it's
kind of chaotic.

We don't have sprints or standups. Someone gets excited about an idea at midnight and we all end up building it. If that sounds unprofessional, good — we named the studio Khaos for a reason.

01

"What if you could..."

What if you could see your music? What if an app could make you feel time passing? Every project starts with a question we can't let go of. Synthscape and Finite both started exactly this way.

02

Learn by Doing

Need real-time FFT audio analysis? We'll learn it. Need custom WebGL shaders? We'll figure it out. If we already knew how to build it, it wouldn't be interesting enough to build.

03

Put It Out There

Done beats perfect. We ship it, put it in people's hands, and see what happens. Sometimes they love it. Sometimes they don't. Either way, we had fun making it and learned something.

04

Live With It

We use everything we make, every day. When something annoys us, it gets fixed that night. When someone has a 2am idea, it's in the next build by morning. Small team, fast hands.

No investors.
No bullshit.

We pay for everything out of our own pockets. That's not a flex — it just means nobody can make us do the annoying stuff that ruins most software.

No Countdown Timers

No "act now!" pop-ups. No fake urgency. No guilt-trip when you close the tab. If you want it, you'll get it. If you don't, cool — we're not going to chase you.

Free Actually Means Free

We don't cripple the free version to force your hand. If there's a paid tier, it's because we added genuinely new stuff — not because we held basic features hostage.

Your Data Stays Yours

We don't sell it. We don't mine it. We barely even collect it. An audio visualizer doesn't need to know your birthday, and we're not going to ask.

No Dark Patterns. Period.

No infinite scroll traps. No notification spam. No "are you sure?" when you try to unsubscribe. We like using software that respects us, so that's what we make.

Things we've made
and things we're making.

Available Now

Synthscape

See your sound.

Turns any audio into real-time visuals — 24 styles, beat detection, and a virtual camera so your music becomes your webcam in Discord, Zoom, or OBS. We built it because we wanted to watch our playlists.

Finite

Your life, visualized.

Shows you your life as a grid of weeks. Tracks health data, unlocks achievements for weird time milestones, and quietly reminds you that all of this is temporary. Is that morbid? We think it's the opposite.

StillHere

We're not ready to talk about this one yet.

It might be brilliant. It might be a terrible idea. Either way, we're having a great time building it.
