RevLatch is in the fire: when a business misses a call, it texts the caller back and captures the lead before they dial the next name on the list. Demo is up at revlatch.com.
Software Forged
in the Dark
Raw AI, hammered into working tools, in public. Some live, some still on the anvil. All AI-first. Take a look. Enjoy yourself.
The Forge Ethos
The Philosophy Behind the Work
◆
BUILT TO WORK
If it doesn't make the product better, it doesn't ship. Clean, functional, real. Software you recommend to a friend without a disclaimer.
◆
DRIVEN BY THE IDEA
No permission, no committee sign-off. If an idea is cool and something people actually need, we're already thinking about how to build it.
◆
FORGED TO LAST
Tarnished doesn't mean broken. It means worn in, tested by fire, still standing. That's what we build: tools that endure.
"Build cool things. Solve real problems. Have a blast doing it. That's the whole plan."

Behind the Forge
One Person. Evenings. Lots of Coffee.
Tarnished Labs is Nic Lockleair building software he thinks the world needs. The name comes from something simple: tarnished doesn't mean broken. It means real. It means you've been through the fire and you're still here, still forging, still swinging.
