A one-person studio + AI

We sniff out better software — and ship it.

SniffSafari Labs builds real, production apps by vibe coding with Claude. Three of them are live or on the way. We also bottled the method.

The studio
Built in retirement, by one human and one very capable AI — with the discipline of someone who shipped software for a living.

No team, no runway pressure, no committee. Just a clear method for turning ideas into tested, deployed, real apps — fast. "Vibe coding" with guardrails: brainstorm, spec, plan, test, ship.

Three things we've sniffed out

One live, one in beta, one open to everybody.

Music practice, turned into an adventure. Young musicians log practice, earn XP, and level up through musical worlds while parents and teachers follow along.

About

Curiosity Unleashed.

SniffSafari Labs is a Massachusetts studio run by a retired tech exec who spent decades shipping customer-facing software — and now builds for the joy of it, with Claude as a co-founder.

Named for two labradoodles, Summit and River, who are very good at sniffing out what's interesting. We try to do the same with software.
