Tools worth paying for.

Your data stays with you

Every MakoBytes app runs on-device. Your screenshots, your text, your workflows — none of it ever touches our servers because we don't have any.

Fast or it's broken

If a feature can't keep up with your thinking, we don't ship it. Sub-second response time is the floor, not the ceiling.

Perpetual license, JetBrains-style.

Every MakoBytes app is sold under a perpetual license. Buy it once, own that version forever — no expiry, no nag screens, no feature loss. Updates are included for 12 months; optional $15/year after that if you want new versions. Stop renewing and your software keeps working. The way it should be.

Plays nice with everything

Every app is model-agnostic, tool-agnostic, and workflow-agnostic. Use it with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, your own local model, whatever you prefer.
