Two principles shape how I use AI at the studio: 1. I never let it erode my own skills. 2. I never let it take the place of a fellow human. Everything else follows from these two. antropia.studio/blog/ai-mani...

I've been afraid to publish this for almost a year. It's about who really takes risks at work, and who gets rewarded for them. Not a safe topic when you're building a company. But staying quiet felt worse. antropia.studio/blog/on-risk... #workculture #cooperatives #workercoops #workerownership

Despite all of this, we still see Trufario as a huge win. It gave us the confidence to create and publish React Native apps in the stores, and we did it in only 40 hours, from its conception to its implementation. #buildinpublic #prototyping #ideavalidation #productdesign
021
Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 03/12/2025
We decided not to pursue it further, the main reason being that we created Trufario with the sole idea of solving our own problem. Publishing it was just the extra ball and we didn't have the appetite (and resources) at the time to do it.

Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 03/12/2025
However, when we published and promoted it, it didn't catch on. The reason were some design decisions and the lack of some core features like multiple pets, multiple parents, timed events, and others.

That's why our next project is going to be open-source and self-hosted. We want to experiment with the project sustainability by offering a hosted version and a paid mobile app, still fully open-source. #selfhosted #buildinpublic #reactnative #opensource

Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 20/11/2025
We have grown an interest on self-hosted projects. Penpot, Postiz, n8n, or Solidtime are some of the ones we use the most. Not only they are incredibly useful, but they address one of the biggest concerns in this digital age: data ownership. #selfhosted #buildinpublic #reactnative #opensource

Let's keep exploring and imagining. What if we remade Trufario today? We created the doggo tracker in only 40 hours, from concept to code, and it shows. Today we wanted to pay proper homage to one of our first apps, and give it a fresh new look. Which one do you like more? #appdesign #buildinpublic

2. We honour focused time. That means we work a maximum of 6 hours a day, 5 days a week. This way we make sure you get the most value out of our time. 3. We work async. We have worked in fully-remote environments for more than 5 years, and we will continue doing so for the foreseeable future.

Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 21/10/2025
We adapt to any environment, product or requirement to make your idea work. Over time, we have come up with a set of general rules that help us make this possible: 1. We offer a fixed rate, that means no offers and no hidden fees. Transparent pricing, for everyone.

Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 21/10/2025
2. We start working on bringing your idea to life. We show, we test, we get feedback, and repeat the process until you're happy with the result. As we say: while (!finished) { iterate() } 3. We help you thrive. We publish your app, train your team, and give you full support to own your product.

Antropia @antropia.bsky.social · 21/10/2025
Do you want to work with us in some project? Here's how it works: 1. We talk, discuss your idea, its feasibility, your goals and how to get there. We agree on an execution plan.

Weirdly (for us), it's not a mobile app, but a web prototype. The only reason being that it matched the way we ourselves used the original Meta dashboard. It supports multiple accounts, metrics, ad scoring, customized alerts, and much more. Go check it now!

We are very proud to honor our pledge once again. This is a huge milestone we couldn't even conceive 6 months ago, when we first launched. In a world full of noise, polarization and exponential promises, this is what keeps us grounded: knowing that what we do has a positive impact in the world.
