Independent software studio

Small, sharp software for real life.

ObsidianAsh is an independent software studio. We build Media Studio — upload a photo, choose a size, and the price is on screen before you've decided where to hang it. Two more tools are live alongside it: RackRoster keeps track of the hardware on your network, and Crawl2Sprint gets you to a finish line.

  • Built by veteran security professionals
  • Free tools run in your browser
  • Every price shown before you commit
About us

Software with its feet on the ground

Obsidian is what you get when something molten cools fast and sets sharp. The studio works the same way: take a messy, real-world problem and turn it into a tool that's simple, sharp, and finished.

What we make

Purpose-built tools that do one job extremely well

Every ObsidianAsh app starts as a real problem someone actually had — an IT budget surprise, a drawing worth framing, a race worth training for. We build the smallest tool that solves it completely, then stop. No feature bloat, no upsells mid-task.

Why we make it

Real life runs on five-minute moments

The moments that need software are usually small: a price you want before dinner, a replacement date you need before budget season, a training plan you want before Saturday's long run. We build for exactly that — open a page, get the answer, get on with your day — plain words, real numbers, and the useful part right up front.

How we build

Configurable at the core, honest at the surface

ObsidianAsh tools are built to be adjusted, not just consumed — your fleet, your sizes, your schedule. The free tools keep your data in your browser, a print order shares only what it takes to make and ship it, and every price and date is shown before you commit to anything.

Process

From rough problem to sharp tool

Every app on this page followed the same three steps. There's no secret to it — just doing things in the right order.

01

Find the real problem

We start with a person and a moment — the admin who got blindsided by aging laptops, the parent with art and no frame, the runner staring at a race entry. If we can't name the person, we don't build the tool.

02

Build the smallest sharp thing

One page, one job, working end-to-end. Prices calculate live, statuses come from real dates, plans map every week. If a feature doesn't serve the moment, it doesn't ship.

03

Ship it live, keep it honest

Everything here is usable today, in plain language, with your data under your control. Then we listen, tweak, and keep the edge sharp as needs change.
