A software studio for businesses that need leads, not logos.
Carbon Studios is a one-engineer software studio. We build lead-generating websites, automation systems, and custom software for local and professional service businesses — the kind of work that ties directly to calls booked, quotes sent, and revenue earned.
Hi, I'm Jacob.
I'm the developer behind Carbon Studios. When we work together, you'll talk directly with the person building your website or software, from the first conversation through implementation and handoff.
My work spans service-business websites and application development. That includes the American Wellness clinic website, a project-management application called Atlas, and Bookie2, a browser bookmark tool. The portfolio explains each project and distinguishes client work from independent builds.
I also work on LearnOS and Swarm Commander. They're still in development, with their current foundations and planned capabilities documented separately.
How we work
Outcomes over deliverables
Start with what the business needs: clearer inquiries, easier booking, or less manual work. Agree on what to measure without promising results a website alone can't guarantee.
Productized scope
Fixed scope and fixed price, signed before we start. No hourly mystery, no surprise invoices. If the scope changes, we have a real conversation.
Built to last
Accessible interfaces, maintainable code, and performance checks are part of the work. Use the simplest architecture that fits the project and document the handoff.
Boring tech where it counts
PostgreSQL, TypeScript, Go, well-tested frameworks. Cutting-edge where it earns its keep (AI assistants, real-time features), boring where it should be (auth, payments, hosting).
Tech we use
Stack decisions follow the work, not the other way around. Most projects land somewhere in here:
We pick tools for fit, not novelty. If your team already runs on something specific, we adapt.
