01 — Selected Work

A task layer for humans and their agents.

Never reshape a thought to fit a form again. Write a task the way you'd say it — Yapture turns it into something scheduled, tagged, and ready to act on, so you stay in flow instead of filling fields.

02 — Selected Work

Think in threads. Ship in diagrams.

Stop shipping stale screenshots. Keep diagrams alive beside your work — edit them like code, co-edit in real time without conflicts, and embed them in the stack you already use.

03 — Selected Work

Your code. Your data. No SaaS.

Own your whole toolchain. Run code, storage, and observability on your own servers behind one login — your data never leaves your control, there's no monthly SaaS bill, and nothing to get locked into.

04 — Selected Work

The private, shared home base for the people who take care of each other.

One private portal per family. Health records, shared plans, events, creative tools, and an AI assistant that stays inside the family boundary.

05 — Selected Work

A modular auth abstraction protocol.

Stop rebuilding the identity seam. Write your auth rules once, compile to SpiceDB or Ory Keto, swap providers by config, and eject to raw parts whenever you choose.

The Studio

Capswan Studio is a U.S.-based, high-touch product studio. We bring strategy, design, engineering, and delivery into one continuous practice for teams that need a holistic partner. Our founder is an engineer with 20+ years across design, full-stack development, solutions architecture, product management, and leadership—including work at two unicorns that later sold for more than $1B.
