About Onsonara

A small studio for tools that get out of your way.

Onsonara is a four-person software studio based in Katowice, Poland. We make focused, local-first productivity tools for people who spend most of their day on a keyboard — writers, engineers, customer-support folks.

We started Onsonara in 2022 after years of building consumer software for other companies and watching the same pattern: products grow loud, ship more notifications, collect more data, and stop respecting the people using them. We wanted to try the opposite.

What we believe

Quiet by default

A productivity tool that constantly interrupts you is part of the problem. Our products try to disappear when you don't need them.

Local-first

Your data lives on your device. Sync is opt-in, end-to-end encrypted, and never includes keystroke content.

Small forever

We are intentionally small. We don't take outside money, and we have no plans to grow into something we couldn't personally support.

Refundable always

If a product doesn't click with you within two weeks, we refund you and part on good terms. Always.

We read every email. We don't have a sales team — questions land directly with the people building the product.
