Lometics · St. Gallen, Switzerland
Software you buy once and own.
No subscriptions, ever. And your data stays on your device, not scattered across online services you can't leave anymore. That's the software we build.

What we stand for
Two promises behind everything we make.
Every app we build follows the same two rules. We don't bend them for a feature, a business model or a growth chart.
- 01
Buy once. Own it.
You pay once for a version, and it's yours. It never expires and never stops working, even if you never pay us again.
- No subscriptions, ever
- No price increases on what you already own
- Fixes and updates within your version are free
- A new major version with new features is a new purchase, if you want it
- Source available: you can read the code of what you own
- 02
Your data stays with you.
If your data can live on your own device, that's where our software keeps it. It works offline, and nothing is sent anywhere it doesn't need to go.
- Offline first, cloud only where it's truly needed
- No account just to use the app
- Plain formats you can open, back up and take anywhere
How buying works
Like buying software used to work, and should.
- 01
Buy a version
One price. No account, no monthly charge, no trial that turns into a subscription.
- 02
Keep it
Your version keeps working for as long as you like. Fixes and improvements within it are free.
- 03
Upgrade if it's worth it
When a new major version brings new features, you decide whether to buy it. Staying on the old one is fine too.
Built this way
The apps are what comes out of it.
We build our own software around these two promises. Here's what we've made so far.
