We think first,then we build.
Tefekti Studio builds software that runs small teams, engineering tools, and health and reading apps. Our games ship under the name Holebuf Studio.
This site is under construction. Projects will open one by one at their own addresses as they get ready.

How we work
- 01
Architecture comes first
Instead of shipping fast and rewriting later, we draw the boundaries right from the start. We are not in a hurry; what we make has to stand for years.
- 02
Data belongs to the user
Local-first wherever possible. Copying a folder should be enough to back it up, and deleting it should really delete it.
- 03
Small team, serious tools
We build our tools for ourselves first, for the real needs of a two-to-five person team. We do not sell what we do not use.
