An independent software studio
Software for the open internet
We build friendly apps that put you back in charge of your online life — your identity, your data, your name. Built on the open AT Protocol, so nothing stays locked to us.
Margin
Margin lets you highlight anything you read online and leave notes right where you found them. It all saves to your own account — so your reading travels with you, and never gets locked inside someone else's app.
Highlight anything
Mark the lines that matter on any page, and find them again exactly where you left them.
Leave yourself notes
Add a thought, a question, or a reminder to any page. They're always there when you come back.
Save it for later
Keep the pages you love in tidy collections you can share, or keep just for yourself.
It's yours to keep
Everything lives in your own account. Take it with you anytime — nothing is locked in.
Marque
Marque helps you get your own web address — the kind that becomes your name across the open internet. Honest prices, no surprises at renewal, and it's yours to use wherever you go.
A name that's yours
Pick a web address and make it your name across the open internet. No rentals, no middlemen.
Set up in minutes
Everything is ready to go out of the box. No confusing settings, no guesswork.
Honest, simple prices
See exactly what you'll pay this year and next, before you buy. No renewal surprises.
Take it anywhere
Your address belongs to you. Manage it here, or anywhere else that speaks the open web.
The internet works better when it's yours.
