ValoStudio

Three builders shipping small software, quietly. Out of bedrooms in the UK, fully self-funded backed by people, not by funds.

Studio

We build small software,quietly.

Three founders. No investors. No accelerator. Out of bedrooms in the UK, shipping product after product.

We make the tools we'd want to use, then ship them — some we charge for, some we don't. Cloud bills, GPU credits, and the time it takes us to ship the next one are what supporters fund.

Independence isn't free. We think it's worth more than scale.

Back the studio

We’d rather be funded by 1,000 supportersthan one investor.

£3, £5, or a monthly seat at the table — every coffee buys us another day to keep shipping. Founding members get their name listed permanently and 50% off everything we ever launch.
