About AD&G
Independent software.
Human-centered purpose.
Apps, Design & Graphics, LLC is an independent software company focused on creating useful, human-centered products.
What we create
We develop and publish our own software, apps, and web products. Our work begins with the needs people are trying to meet, with thoughtful attention to privacy, clarity, and the role technology should play.
We favor local-first approaches when practical and introduce accounts, permissions, connectivity, and data collection only when they serve a real product need.
The principles behind our products
- People first
- Start with the problem people are trying to solve.
- Privacy by design
- Consider data collection, access, retention, and disclosure from the beginning.
- Local-first when practical
- Keep functionality and data on the user's device when that architecture serves the product.
- Less friction
- Accounts, permissions, and connectivity should exist only when they serve a real product need.
- Understandable software
- Interfaces and behavior should be clear enough that users understand what the product is doing.
