Stubborn about shipping.
WE BUILD WHAT'S MISSING
Independent software for people who build. Practical tools, thoughtful design, and control over your own workflow.
BUILD. SHIP. REPEAT.

TUNNELAGENT.DEVBUILT WITH CONVICTION.
We build tools for problems we know firsthand.
We give people more control over their work.
We take responsibility for what we ship.
Privacy is a right, not a feature.
DESIGN WITH INTENT
Clear workflows, useful defaults, and fewer interruptions. We treat the experience of using a tool as part of the engineering.
SMALL TEAM, HIGH STANDARDS
We automate repetitive work so we can spend more time on the details that matter: design, reliability, and the people using our products.
PRIVACY BY DESIGN
Your data is yours. We favor local workflows, collect only what a product needs, and make data choices clear.
BUILT TO BE USED
Shipping is the start. We use our own tools, listen to feedback, and keep improving the software people depend on.
HARD PROBLEMS. DIRECT COLLABORATION.
Our own products are our primary focus. Each year, we take on a handful of outside projects where our experience can make a meaningful difference.
From new systems to complex migrations, you work directly with the people building the software. We define the problem together, agree on a clear scope, and carry the work through to delivery.
USE WHAT WORKS.
We work across desktop software, infrastructure, AI workflows, and legacy systems. We choose technology for the problem, with long-term maintenance and reliability in mind.
FROM THE BUILD FLOOR
What we shipped, how we shipped it, and what broke along the way.
