Brunescco

Brunescco

Every app earns its place.

Brunescco builds useful applications, its own and other people's. Three products carry this name, one of them already at Apple, and client work runs alongside them. Everything here ships finished or it does not ship.

The brand

A small team, and a short list.

Design, mobile, desktop, backend and the words on every screen are done by the same team, end to end. Nothing is subcontracted and nothing is handed off half-explained, which is the reason the list stays short.

The products have nothing in common on the surface. A trackpad for a desk, an archive for your paperwork and five minutes of spoken practice solve different problems, so each one gets its own room on this page, in its own language. A catalogue where everything looks alike was designed by nobody.

Four white slabs floating one above the other, each straighter than the one below it.
Four attempts. The fourth one shipped.

The catalogue

What Brunescco makes.

  • 01

    Your phone becomes the trackpad, keyboard and macro pad for any computer on the network.

    iOS · Windows · macOS · Linux In App Review
  • 02

    Money, with memory. Your bills and receipts read and filed on the phone itself, with nowhere for them to go.

    iOS In development
  • 03

    Spoken practice for the conversation you only get to have once.

    iOS · Android In development

Nothing appears in this catalogue before it exists. It grows one product at a time, and a product only moves to Shipping when somebody outside Brunescco can install it.

How it gets built

The standard

  1. 01

    Attention is not the product.

    Nothing carrying this name is built to be opened out of habit. No streaks, no notifications inventing a reason to come back, no number that rewards time spent instead of work done. A Brunescco app should leave you needing it less over time, not more.

  2. 02

    Your data stays yours.

    Data stays on your device, or on your own network, unless the job genuinely requires otherwise. No account where none is needed, no collection because it might be useful one day, and no third party watching over your shoulder.

  3. 03

    Nothing easy to start and hard to stop.

    Leaving is as plain as arriving. No dark patterns, no cancel button buried three screens deep, no trial that turns into a subscription while you are looking elsewhere. Getting out is always as easy as getting in.

  4. 04

    Finished before it ships.

    A product leaves when the work is done, not when a calendar says so. Half-finished features stay out until they are finished, and nothing here carries a date it cannot keep.

These are the rules every product answers to, including the ones not built yet. Today they can be checked in AirMouse: no account, no notifications, nothing leaving your network, and one file to install or delete. This page holds itself to the same line, with no cookies, no trackers and no analytics.

AirMouse

The computer is across the room and the trackpad is not. Your phone becomes one, along with the keyboard you are missing.

  1. 01

    One file on the computer

    One file. On a Mac you drag it into Applications; on Windows and Linux you run what you downloaded. It stays out of your way afterwards.

  2. 02

    The phone finds it

    No address to type, no account to make. A box on the computer asks whether to allow it, and that is the whole of pairing.

  3. 03

    Trackpad, keyboard, macros

    The gestures your computer's own trackpad has, the keys a phone does not, and buttons that follow whichever app is in front.

Everything AirMouse does

An iPhone showing the AirMouse trackpad: the computer's screen live at the top, the pad below it, and left, middle and right buttons under that.
The Mac's screen, on the phone driving it

YET

Money, with memory. Photograph a bill and the phone reads it, keeps the exact characters it read, and asks you before it links a payment to what it settled.

  1. 01

    Read on the phone

    The tax authority QR code, the Multibanco entity and reference checked against the amount, the labelled total, the issuer. Parsers, not guesses, and there is nowhere to send them.

  2. 02

    It asks before it links

    When a proof looks like it settles one of your bills, one card appears carrying the line each page printed. Nothing is linked until you tap.

  3. 03

    Able to prove itself

    Every amount, date and reference is stored with the exact characters it was read from, and where they sat on the page. Tap a fact and the original opens on those characters.

Everything YET does

A bill on the left and the line YET writes from it on the right, with a thread drawn from the total printed on the page to the amount in the line.
One page in, one line out, and the thread between them

Her Next Move

You get one first conversation with somebody, and you get it once. Have it here first, out loud, while nothing is at stake.

  1. 01

    You speak first

    She does not know this is practice. No script, no menu of replies. You say something out loud and it lands or it does not.

  2. 02

    She answers in real time

    A live voice with a temperament of her own. What moves her is what you said, not how long you spoke.

  3. 03

    The bar tells you the truth

    Above her, a thin line for what she actually feels. People are polite in person, and the line is not.

Everything Her Next Move does

The Her Next Move call screen on an iPhone: Nina, confident, is listening, the interest line sits under a third of the way along, and 4:25 remains on the clock.

Consulting

Brunescco is available for hire.

The same team, pointed at your product. Building it from nothing, fixing the part that will not behave, or auditing a system already in production for organisations that want it read by somebody who did not build it.
