Quiet, dependable tools for focused work.
We're a small independent studio building software that gets out of your way — fast, considered, and made to last.
What we work on
A few things we've shipped and continue to care for. Small surface area, sharp execution.
Margin
A distraction-free notebook that keeps your writing local and your focus intact.
Tideline
A lightweight scheduler for recurring tasks, with sensible defaults and no clutter.
Plainsight
A minimal dashboard toolkit for keeping an eye on the things that matter to you.
How we approach things
Three principles we keep coming back to.
Less, but better
We'd rather do a handful of things well than many things adequately.
Built to last
Boring, stable technology beats novelty when people depend on your work.
Respect attention
No dark patterns, no noise. Tools should give time back, not take it.
About
Slate Wing started as a side project between a couple of engineers who were tired of bloated software. Today it's still small by choice. We design, build, and maintain everything ourselves, and we ship when something is genuinely ready — not before.
We work remotely across a few time zones, write about what we learn, and try to keep things calm.
