LATENT SIGNAL LABS

A solo studio. I build a few things with obsessive care — software that respects your attention instead of competing for it, made the slow, old-fashioned way: one detail at a time, until it's right.

// BRIEF

Stay protects family time from doomscrolling. When you try to open a blocked app during a protected moment — dinner, bedtime, mornings, homework — Stay shows a gentle pause with your own family photos, so you choose with intention instead of habit, before the scroll starts.

Built for real parents, not productivity theater — a light dopamine detox for the whole family.
  • A gentle app blocker and screen-time control built for family life
  • Calm app locks and time limits for protected moments like dinner and bedtime
  • Keep the focus on the people in front of you, not the feed
  • Override when life requires it, without shame

// SIGNAL ENCRYPTED — IN DEVELOPMENT

CODENAME

// disclosed at launch

A voice-first journaling app built around one hard constraint: one entry per day, a few minutes max, with optional summaries and weekly insights. No cloud. No account. No layered on top of your private thoughts.

// ABOUT THE LAB

Latent Signal Labs is a solo studio. One engineer. I work on the software I want to exist.

Nothing ships until it's right — every detail considered, sweated over, and built to last.
