Synapsin Gravy Workshop — a gravy boat with a circuit-board brain

Synapsin Gravy Workshop

small batch software

we build the things we want to exist, and share the ones we think you'll get something out of. two hands, a few projects, no hurry.

on the workbench

AppLadle — a ladle spooning out little app tiles

AppLadle coming soon

spoon out your own little apps.

a little grid of tools and games on your phone — a calculator, notes, a couple of games — plus a bench for making your own, by hand or with a little help from AI. all offline, no account, no ads. the apps you make stay yours, as plain files you can take with you.

Keepfall — a castle gate with units marching toward a distant keep

Keepfall in development

one lane, two castles, about two minutes to take the other side.

a real-time lane-combat game where deployment order is everything and the AI plays by exactly the same rules you do — no cheating, just twelve different temperaments. fully playable now, currently drawn in honest rectangles while we make the AI good enough to beat us.

Stockpot — a simmering pot whose steam becomes a mind map

Stockpot a tool we built for ourselves

where your ideas simmer and separate.

a permanent memory for one life: journals, reading, and notes go into one inbox, and overnight they're broken into small claims, linked, and grown into a personal wikipedia that gets deeper the more goes in. the memory part works; the part that runs research while we sleep is still learning.

Butcherblock — a butcher block where each session is chopped into even pieces

Butcherblock in the works

short-term recall for your terminal.

the fast half of the memory pair: every coding session is saved whole so you can grep it, and chopped turn-by-turn into searchable pieces so you can find a thing by meaning long after. what's worth keeping gets simmered down into Stockpot. built for people who live at the command line.

Stockpot and Butcherblock are a matched pair — Butcherblock keeps each working session within reach and reduces what matters down into Stockpot's long memory. Either stands alone; together they're a whole memory.
