Studio principles
Useful first, calm in use, careful with trust.
The studio identity is simple on purpose: fewer promises, more attention to the parts of a product people actually touch.
Practical scope
Tools should do a real job clearly before they grow into larger systems.
Local-first defaults
When a product can work well without an account or backend, it should.
Careful records
Apps should help people preserve useful context without making the process heavy.
Product lines
Two focused apps, one local-first posture.
Vellumstead Labs products share the same bias: practical workflows, calm review, and careful handling of user data.
Desktop utility
Foldra
Clean up approved local folders with preview, approval, undo, source memory, duplicate grouping, and cleanup review.
Mobile reports
PlaceLedger
Create local room-by-room rental photo reports with guided checklists, optional GPS stamps, report locking, signer acknowledgements, comparison views, and PDF export.
Product-specific support.
Each Vellumstead Labs app has its own support, privacy, and terms pages so users can find the policy that matches the product they use.
