Apps

One tool.
Done properly.

We would rather make one useful thing exceptional than ship a catalogue of distractions. Glassine is the first.

How we build

Principles,
not slogans.

The rules are simple: respect the user, show the truth, and leave their data in a form that outlives the app.

Focused

Each product does one job properly instead of ten jobs adequately.

Plain dealing

Clear pricing, clear boundaries, and no interface designed to trick you.

Honest software

Failures are surfaced, not softened. Trust is earned when things go wrong.

Built to last

Open, documented formats wherever your data lives with us. No lock-in by design.

Iron Panda Labs

Software should feel quietly inevitable.

More is brewing.
