JTR Labs is a small independent studio. We design and build apps and websites for focus, learning, and curiosity — quietly opinionated, free of dark patterns, made to be kept.
Each built with care for a single audience and a single problem. No accounts, no surveillance, no dark patterns — just thoughtful software.
A calm visual focus timer. A real cup of ice slowly melts as you work — Pomodoro mode, ambient soundscapes, and streaks that don't nag.
A simple, beautiful task timer with quick presets, Dynamic Island, home-screen widgets, and a clean dark theme. No accounts, no tracking.
A driver-level blue light filter for Mac. Warms your display as the sun sets — every pixel, every app, every layer. Built around six tuned presets and a quiet eye health score in the menu bar.
Open →A family Bitcoin app where kids earn real satoshis by completing lessons and quizzes — while parents stay in full control of the wallet. Built on the Lightning Network.
Visit →A cozy focus timer built around the ritual of cooking rice. Rinse, add water, close the lid, press cook — then a steaming pot bubbles along until a satisfying pop rewards your finished session.
A cozy archaeology merge story. Help Dr. Zara Cole restore forgotten civilizations — twelve seasonal events, a living museum diorama, and soap-opera storytelling built for cozy mobile play.
Open →JTR Labs LLC is an independent software studio based in the United States. We build apps and websites the way we'd want them built — quietly opinionated, free of dark patterns, and respectful of your time and your data.
We're not a venture-funded growth machine. We're a small team shipping software that's worth keeping on your home screen, or in your browser tabs — not optimized for monthly active users, but for the people we hope will recognize the care taken.
Every product is built around a single, honest question: would we keep using this in five years? If the answer isn't yes, we don't ship it.
