Portfolio

Things we're building

Flying Black Cat Studios creates and operates a growing portfolio of focused products rather than one giant platform. Each one has a clear job, its own audience, and room to become a real business.

Plantwyze

Grow plants. Learn things. Share the wins and the spectacular failures.

A playful gardening companion designed to help people learn, grow, share, and become more confident plant people — practical plant knowledge, community, progress, and a little personality.

The shelf is still filling up.

We are building a portfolio one useful product at a time. New products land here when they're real, not when they're a slide.

Why we exist

Technology is very good at becoming complicated. We would rather make it useful.

Flying Black Cat Studios starts with ordinary friction — the annoying, repetitive, confusing, expensive, or unnecessarily difficult parts of everyday life — and asks whether a thoughtful product could make them better.

Sometimes the answer is software. Sometimes it is AI. Sometimes it is a better process. Usually it is some combination of all three.

How we build

Four things we keep coming back to

We use AI extensively to design, build, test, operate, market, and support products. Judgment stays human.

  1. 01

    Find the friction

    Start with a real problem instead of a technology looking for a use.

  2. 02

    Build small

    Create focused products with clear jobs rather than giant platforms that try to do everything.

  3. 03

    Use AI intelligently

    Use AI where it genuinely makes products, operations, or experiences better.

  4. 04

    Keep humans accountable

    AI can recommend, build, analyze, and automate. Humans remain responsible for important decisions.

The studio

Built by a builder

Flying Black Cat Studios was founded by an experienced technology and operations leader who has spent a career building teams, systems, processes, and products in complex environments.

Now that same builder mindset is being applied to a portfolio of practical products designed for everyday people.
