Independent software studio

Software that gives you your life back.

Vegariseis an independent studio building privacy-respecting software — calm apps for everyday life, tools for teams that don't waste their attention, and products for the developers who ship the rest. We start with Finvision and grow from there.

Mission & values

Make everyday life measurably lighter.

We build software for the friction points that quietly drain you — tools you reach for once, that work, and then get out of the way.

“We ship slowly on purpose. Every product is one we use ourselves — and won’t ship until it genuinely improves the day.

— Vegarise founding principle

Why we build

  • Privacy by default

    Personal data lives where it belongs — on your device. When something has to leave, we redact first and tell you what leaves.

  • Quietly powerful

    Calm, focused tools that do the heavy lifting without demanding your attention. The math runs in the background; you get clear answers.

  • Built to be uninstalled

    We optimize for outcomes, not session time. Reach the goal, close the app, go live your life. We measure success in time you got back.

How we build

  • Calm by default

    No streaks, no dopamine traps, no notifications begging for attention. Consumer, team, or developer — our software is quiet on purpose.

  • Local-first when it matters

    Your data lives where it belongs. Cloud is a deliberate choice, not the default — and never a place we lock you into.

  • AI on your terms

    When we use AI we redact your data first, tell you exactly what leaves the device, and let you turn it off. No models trained on your work.

  • Fair pricing, no dark patterns

    We charge for what we build — pro tiers, B2B licenses, dev seats. We don't growth-hack your trial, harvest your attention, or sell your data to make up the difference.

The team

Built by two people who actually use it.

Vegarise started in 2023 when Max and Rostyslav set out to build something they believed could change how people experience music. They worked on it for nearly two years — the vision was clear, the ambition was real, the work was relentless. But building a revolution takes more than two people and a big idea.

In 2025, Vegarise found its real direction: a deliberate series of focused products — for everyday life, for teams, for developers. Software built for the quiet pleasure of using it. Finvision is the first proof: a product that works exactly as promised, respects your privacy, and improves your day.

Questions

Honest answers, no hedging.

The questions we get most often. If yours isn't here, just ask.

  • What does Vegarise actually build?

    Privacy-respecting software across three areas: calm consumer apps (Finvision is the first), tools for teams that don't waste their attention, and small sharp products for developers. We start where the friction is highest.

  • Is your software really private?

    Yes. Where the data is personal — like Finvision's ledger — it lives on your device by default. Where AI is involved (e.g. Penny inside Finvision), we send only redacted values, never names or descriptions, and we tell you exactly what leaves the device.

  • Do you charge subscriptions?

    Yes — for some products. Consumer apps usually have a free core and an optional pro tier; B2B and developer products are licensed. What we don't do: growth-hack your trial, push notifications to fake engagement, or sell your data to make up for cheap pricing. Honest prices, no dark patterns.

  • When does Finvision launch?

    Summer 2026 on iOS 17.6+. Email hello@vegarise.io with subject "Finvision launch" and we'll let you know.

  • What's next after Finvision?

    More consumer apps in the same calm-tech direction, a couple of B2B ideas we're piloting, and early developer tools. We ship slowly on purpose; we'll talk publicly when something's worth showing.
