About the studio

Built by one person.

FOUNDER · PORTRAIT
"I started ShoSoft because the tools I wanted didn't exist — or had been swallowed by a subscription model and a roadmap I didn't recognize. So I'm making them myself, one at a time, and selling them the old way: a fair price, a real license, and an email address that goes to me."
