About Vigod Labs

The workshop

Vigod Labs is the independent workshop of Marc Vigod — a single developer who builds and ships every app personally. There is no team, no VC backing, no growth roadmap pinned to a wall. Just a Mac, a compiler, and a stubborn preference for software that behaves itself.

The name is deliberately small. "Labs" implies experimentation, and that is exactly the spirit here: each app starts as a question ("why isn't this already simple?") and ends only when the answer is genuinely satisfying.

The philosophy

Every Vigod Labs app is built around the same three constraints:

• Do one thing exceptionally well. Scope creep is the enemy of clarity. A focused tool is faster to learn, faster to trust, and far less likely to break when macOS updates.
• Respect your machine. Native code, minimal memory, no background daemons phoning home. Your Mac should feel faster after installing an app, not slower.
• Respect your attention. No subscriptions nudging you to upgrade. No onboarding flows that assume you are confused. No telemetry collecting data you didn't agree to share. Install it, use it, forget it's there.

No accounts, no subscriptions, no telemetry, no nonsense — that is not marketing copy. It is a constraint that shapes every decision from the first commit.

Who built this

Marc Vigod is a developer based in New Jersey with thirty years of experience across web and software development.
