BUTTON FARM

Button Farm builds small, useful software products for specific jobs that bigger platforms overlook. We keep the portfolio tight, operate close to the work, and use automation where it makes the products faster, clearer, or easier to maintain.

Operating notes

Principles we actually use.

01

Useful over shiny

Every product has a job. If it cannot describe that job in one sentence, it is not ready.

02

Small surface area

Focused products are easier to operate, easier to trust, and easier to improve.

03

Local-first where it matters

Personal data should stay close unless there is a clear reason to send it elsewhere.

04

Bounded automation

Agents handle repetitive work behind the scenes; important changes still need logs, checks, and a responsible owner.

05

Shipping beats theater

A live thing with five real users beats a polished deck with none.

06

Raw output is not the product

AI output is raw material. It only counts after review, taste, and revision.

Mascot

Porkchop

Stares at loading states. Judges empty screens. Keeps the whole operation from becoming a spreadsheet with a logo.
