↓Software tools, intelligent systems, and thoughtful interfaces.
Field Bureau + Werkstatt
An independent design and technology practice. We make software tools that are deliberate, human, and built to last — blending analysis with craft, always in the context of real use.

SR-7
A native audio recorder with on-device transcription and AI summaries.
Capture ideas, conversations, and observations. Everything is transcribed and summarised on your device. Your recordings become a searchable, skimmable archive that grows with every session — and opens to AI workflows when you choose.
