  • Payout & clawback dates
  • Referral income
  • Direct-deposit checkpoints
  • Optional account sign-in
02 Client work
Now booking · 2026

A few client builds a year.

We take on a small number of client projects — mobile apps, marketing sites, and small product builds — the same way we build our own: scoped tightly, priced as a fixed fee, shipped fast.

It's a small operation by design. One project at a time, AI-accelerated development, and the person you email is the person doing the work. Our first app, Trove, was built exactly this way — so was this site.

03 Studio

Independent software,
built to stick around.

Sable Creek is an independent software studio building focused consumer apps for money and work — the everyday systems people actually rely on.

Most software companies monetize attention, data, or growth at any cost. We don't. When local-first works, we build local-first. When something genuinely needs a server, we say what's stored and why.

We're not building for an exit timeline. We're building products small enough to maintain, improve, and keep useful for years.

The work stays focused on purpose: fewer features, clearer tools, no bloated platforms.

04 Principles

How we build.

P · 01

Your data, where it belongs.

When local-first works, we build local-first. When a server is necessary, we say what's stored and why. No invisible pipes to invisible third parties.

P · 02

Built to last.

No exit timeline. No growth-at-all-costs roadmap. Just focused apps small enough to keep maintaining for years.

P · 03

One thing at a time.

Each product does one job clearly before it earns another feature. We'd rather ship one thing well than five things passably.

P · 04

Honest about what we are.

Small team, real work. No fake enterprise posture. When something is broken, we say so and fix it.

05 Contact

Say hello.

Questions, ideas, press, partnerships, or just to tell us where one of our apps is wrong — we read everything that comes in.
