Lumen Labs Studio
Software that respects your attention.
No monthly rent for a habit tracker. No “cloud-leaks” of your health data. No algorithmic guilt. Just native, one-time tools for the parts of life big studios ignore.
The Philosophy
One-time pricing, wherever it fits.
Subscriptions are for software you keep updating every week. A debt payoff tracker, a hydration log, a journal — pay once, use forever. We only use subscriptions when the product genuinely earns them.
Privacy-first, by architecture.
HealthKit stays on-device. No analytics pixels. No accounts unless the product literally can't work without them. We can't leak a database we never built.
Apple-native, not cross-platform shortcuts.
SwiftUI, HealthKit, WidgetKit, App Intents. Our apps should feel like they belong on the phone they run on — not like a web app in a wrapper.
How to browse
Four intentional collections.
Instead of searching a generic store, browse the “stacks” we built to work together in your daily life.

The Debt-Free Journey
Stop paying rent on your own money. Tools to help you crush debt and reclaim your freedom.
What we're building
Eight apps we believe in enough to stake the studio on.
Real prices from our PRDs. No vapor. If it's here, we've verdicted it as build-and-launch — the rest of the catalog is at /catalog.
DebtFree
01Crush your debt. Keep your peace.
Debt-stressed households are the most anti-subscription cohort on the App Store — and still every competitor charges monthly. We built the one you pay for once and keep.
Shipping soon$19.99 lifetimeFastTrack India
02Intermittent fasting calibrated for Indian dinner times.
Every fasting app is built around a 6pm Western dinner. NRI and Indian families eat at 9pm, fast on ekadashi, and need a vegetarian mode — so we made the one that actually fits.
Shipping soon$19.99 / yearMenoTrack
03Track menopause symptoms. Walk in prepared.
Period apps retrofit menopause as an afterthought. We started from hot flashes, HRT, and the 10-year arc — not from a 28-day cycle wheel.
Shipping soon$39.99 / yearAnchor
04A daily companion for prayer, scripture, and spiritual growth.
Quiet-faith practitioners are stuck between shout-y gamified apps and bloated megachurch suites. We wanted a small, honest companion that respects the practice.
Shipping soon$39.99 lifetimeAquaLog
05Track daily hydration with visual progress and reminders.
Hydration is a commodity category where everyone charges $20/yr for a ring and a reminder. We think it's a $4.99 one-time purchase, full stop.
Shipping soon$4.99 onceBabyLog
06Track feeds, sleeps, diapers, and milestones for your baby.
Huckleberry charges $99/yr to sleep-deprived parents. Two of us have been at 3am bottles ourselves — this one's personal and priced honestly.
Shipping soon$29.99 / yearMoodMap
07Log your mood. See what actually moves it.
Daylio and Bearable work — but one costs $36/yr and the other $28/yr. Mood tracking is a decade-long habit; a $29.99 lifetime makes more sense than perpetual rent.
Shipping soon$29.99 lifetimeMedMinder
08Medication reminders for people and pets.
Caregivers managing a parent's medication shouldn't have to choose between a $5/mo app and a fragile spreadsheet. Lifetime pricing, one decision, done.
Shipping soon$49 lifetime
