One job, done properly
An app earns its place in the menu bar by solving a single problem completely. We would rather ship a small tool that never surprises you than a suite you have to learn.
Independent Mac software studio
TenPrint Software builds small, fast macOS utilities that do one job properly and then get out of your way. Every app is free to download and free to keep using. Where an app has a Pro tier, you pay for it once.
Every app runs entirely on your Mac and ships signed and notarised by Apple. Pro features are free to try for 14 days, and nothing you buy ever renews.
Products
Each app solves one real problem on the Mac. Pick the one you need — they work perfectly well on their own.
Principles
Four rules that decide what goes into a release, and what stays out.
An app earns its place in the menu bar by solving a single problem completely. We would rather ship a small tool that never surprises you than a suite you have to learn.
No accounts, no telemetry, no analytics pixels. Settings and layouts live in your own home folder, and the only network traffic is an update check and, for paid apps, a licence check.
Paid apps use a one-time licence with a free trial first. No subscription, no feature that quietly disappears when a billing cycle ends.
Every version ships with a changelog that says what actually changed, including the parts that are still in progress. Roadmaps are published, not implied.
Where the name comes from
On a Commodore 64, a single line of BASIC draws a maze that never repeats: 10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10. Two diagonal characters, chosen at random, endlessly. It is the clearest demonstration we know that a very small program can produce something genuinely useful and genuinely surprising — which is exactly the kind of software we like to make.
The pattern behind this page is generated by that same rule.
10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1));
20 GOTO 10 Every app has a free download and a real trial. Install it, use it for a week, and decide afterwards.
