teprof · an independent software studio

Small softwarefor a quieter phone.

We make tools that help you stop doing the things you keep regretting. No accounts, no tracking, no streaks.

See our work

Most apps are built to bring you back. Ours are built so you need them less. When Pactroll works, you open it less, and that’s the point.

02How we build
01

No account

Open it and start. There is nothing to sign up for.

02

Data Not Collected

That’s our App Store privacy label, and we mean to keep it.

03

No streaks, no guilt

Research suggests a broken streak makes people give up. So we don’t keep one, and a slip never resets your days.

A pleading, innocent face

Our founder

Founded by Yale Turner.

Yale started teprof after being hooked on apps firsthand, to build tools grounded in research, not engagement.
