We build tools that feel like magic and hold up like stone.

Sparkstone is a small studio focused on crafting software that’s fast, local-first, and human-centered. We care about elegance, flexibility, and building things that last. Most of all, we care about people — the ones using the tools and the ones making them.

Founded during a strange and quiet stretch of time, Sparkstone grew out of side projects, playtesting tools, and half-serious hacks. But the idea was always there: make tools we wish existed. And share them with people who might feel the same.

What We’re Into

• Local-first software that puts you in control

• Interfaces that are joyful without being flashy

• Tools that empower creators, not platforms

• Open source, when it makes sense

• Weird little experiments that sometimes go big

We believe small software can do big things. And that thoughtful software is timeless.
