Projects

What we've built.

helyi

helyi.net

A platform for community-scale food groups. Neighbourhood markets where local organizers connect members with small-scale producers. Transparent pricing with fixed fees — so growth benefits communities, not the platform. Control over food, distributed back to the community level.

winkl

winkl.co.za

Your little shop, sorted. A simple, affordable way for small South African businesses to sell online — storefronts, orders, payments, delivery zones, and customer insights. Built for entrepreneurs selling home-cooked meals, handmade crafts, fresh produce, and more. No technical expertise required.

tuhat

tuhat.net

A platform for long-form writing. Posts must be at least 1,000 words to publish. No algorithms, no tracking, no ads — just plain HTML and Markdown. Each writer gets their own page. Depth over brevity.

lightstalkers

lightstalkers.net

Similar to tuhat, but for images. Share public or private albums, one image per creator per day is added to the homepage. No algorithms, just a time based feed.

kilta

kilta.io

What if a social media platform optimized for time off site. Thats the goal of Kilta, its an anonymous offline social network based on your interests. Define what you are into, and find local people with overlapping interests, organize to meet them in the world.

werkr

werkr.co.za

Service-business management for small operators. Jobs, services, stock, time tracking, and a customer-facing storefront with online bookings — all behind a single org login. Built for tradespeople, consultants, coaches, and field-service teams. 8by3.com runs on werkr.

folk thing

folkthing.net

Similar to werkr but built for community organizing. Voting, decisions, resource management, learning, everything a community needs.
