ABOUT

A small studio that only ships its own products.

Onyx Systems builds and maintains a small portfolio of mobile and web products. We don’t take client work and we don’t outsource — every app in the portfolio is designed, built and supported by the same small team, end to end.

That means fewer products than a typical studio, each one owned completely. Sift and Orbit both work the same way: your data lives on your device by default, there’s no account to create, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you explicitly ask for it.

01
We keep what we build

The person who ships a feature answers the support message about it. There's no hand-off to someone else to maintain — that loop is the whole studio.

02
Privacy as an engineering constraint

No third-party trackers, no ad SDKs, data kept on-device wherever the product allows it. It shapes the architecture, not the marketing page.

03
Slow releases, long lifetimes

We'd rather ship a handful of considered releases a year than forty forgettable ones. Every product here is still actively maintained.
