AI-NATIVE SOFTWARE STUDIO
AI-native tools for the way you work.
BlendPixel builds AI-native productivity and creative tools, from concept to launch. Four focused apps across Mac, Windows, iOS, and Chrome, each built around a single job.
THE STUDIO
AI-native tools, built end to end.
BlendPixel builds AI-native productivity and creative tools. We pick problems we run into ourselves and design, build, and ship the whole product: the model, the interface, and the details in between.
Modern AI sits at the core of every app, but it stays in service of the work. Soya transcribes on-device, Listval runs on Apple Intelligence, and your data stays on your machine wherever it can.
WHAT WE MAKE
The catalog.
Four AI-native apps across Mac, Windows, iOS, and Chrome.
SoyaMACA privacy-first AI meeting assistant. On-device transcription pairs with a cloud LLM to turn live audio into clear, structured summaries.
Explore
Screen recording built for clarity and polish. Cinematic zoom, motion effects, and prompt-to-animation AI overlays.
Explore
OrbitCHROMESocial operations for creators and small businesses. Smart targeting, pacing controls, and safety-focused limits.
Explore
Values-based planning and habits. Values decay when neglected, turning daily action into momentum, powered by on-device Apple Intelligence.
VisitHOW WE WORK
Simple, focused, shipped.
Do one thing well.
Every app has a single job and a short path to done. No feature bloat, no enterprise complexity, nothing to configure before it helps.
AI that earns its place.
Modern AI sits at the core of every product, but only where it makes the work faster or better, never for its own sake.
Private by default.
We keep your data on your machine when we can. Soya transcribes on-device with a cloud LLM for the summary; Listval runs on Apple Intelligence.
