Products that humans need and want

We build dedicated, laser-focused products, each made to solve one specific, painful, niche problem. They start as fixes for our own problems. When we see plenty of other people have the same problem, we turn the fix into a product.

How a product happens

From our problem to your product

One problem per product, solved properly. A proper product release every other month, on average, over the last year.

  1. We hit a problem

    Something in our own work keeps costing us time, money or patience, and nothing we try fixes it well enough.

  2. We fix it for ourselves

    A focused tool that does one job properly, built by the same CTO-led team that builds software for our clients.

  3. If it is common, it ships

    When we see plenty of other people have the same problem, the fix becomes a product with a name and a site of its own.

Questions

What is Metamindz Studio?

Metamindz Studio is the name for the products by Metamindz, a UK technical consultancy and software agency in London. Each one is built to solve one specific problem. There are five: MMDZ, podswitch, alignd, Shmor and MintyAI.

Where do the products come from?

From our own work. When a problem keeps costing us time, we build a fix for ourselves. When we see plenty of other people have the same problem, we turn the fix into a product. Over the last year that has meant a proper product release every other month, on average.

Are they free?

MMDZ is free. podswitch and alignd have free plans, with paid plans when you need more. Shmor and MintyAI have free trials, and no card is needed to start either. Each product’s own site has its current prices.

How are they different from the free tools?

The free tools run on this site, in your browser: free for your name and a work email, with a daily limit per person, with nothing to install. Studio products have names of their own, you install them, sign up or subscribe, and some have paid plans.

Got a painful problem of your own?

The team behind these products builds software for clients too: led by a CTO, with full ownership of the development lifecycle, from architecture to deployment.
