Software studio · Riga, Latvia
Automate the mechanical,so the human can return.
Two founders. We build lean products with founders who are not engineers, and we build and operate our own clinical product, CalcuCare.
Why we started
This wasn't a software problem. It was a human one.
It started with a question nobody in the room could answer, and ended with a product we run every day.
- 01
Curiosity
We kept meeting teams doing skilled work with paper, spreadsheets and a calculator.
- 02
A question
"Why is this still done on paper? Why does it take so long?" No one had a good answer.
- 03
The people
The problem was not software. It was exhausted clinicians doing manual maths instead of care.
- 04
CalcuCare
So we built the tool ourselves, and we still ship it in conversation with the people who use it.
What we stand for
We build because we care.
Connection
Real dialogue with the people who use what we build, and real trust inside a team of two. Everything else follows from that.
Authenticity
We question norms, speak plainly and reject the idea that professional tools have to be cold and faceless.
Passion
We build because we care about the outcome. When the work gets hard, that is what we return to.
What we do
One studio, two kinds of work.
Client work keeps us honest about cost and speed. Our own product keeps us honest about everything else.
Services for founders
Lean MVP validation, prototype execution, code audits and scale-up on Kotlin, React and DevOps.
CalcuCare, a local-first enteral nutrition workspace. Free for individual specialists, built with clinicians.
In conversation
In conversation with the people who live the problem, and we question "best practice" when it does not serve them.
Services
Stop paying agencies €30k for software nobody wants.
Four ways we work with founders, in the order most people meet them.
- 01 · Validate
Lean MVP validation & strategy
We define the smallest product that can test real demand, and the numbers that will prove it.
Best for: Founders with a raw idea who want to avoid spending tens of thousands on unproven software.
- 02 · Launch
Prototype execution & analytics
We build and deploy the lean MVP: landing pages, low-code workflows and real behavioural analytics.
Best for: Founders ready to hit the market in weeks rather than months.
- 03 · Fix
Code audit & platform optimisation
Full platform and architecture audit, realistic test scenarios, and an end-to-end testing matrix.
Best for: Business owners stuck with a sluggish platform they have already paid for.
- 04 · Scale
Scale-up: Kotlin, React, DevOps
Production-grade Kotlin backends, high-performance React frontends and CI/CD built to run indefinitely.
Best for: Validated products ready for enterprise-grade scalability.
Standardize enteral nutrition plans in minutes.
CalcuCare, a clinical nutrition platform by Lumias, for ICU and ward specialists.
Unified planning workspace
Patient parameters, formulas and the feeding schedule in one continuous interface.
Dynamic guardrails
Planned versus target requirements, live, so a calculation error is visible before the patient sees it.
Instant documentation
Chart-ready text summaries or a formatted PDF, generated from the plan you already made.
Local-first
Patient parameters stay in browser memory and never reach a server. No EHR integration, no procurement, no data-processing agreement to negotiate.
Who we are
Your technical partners in the trenches.
Think of us as your co-founders for hire.
Rita LarinaCEO / Technical Strategist
Turns a vague idea into a scope, a budget and a test plan. Reviews third-party builds before the warranty runs out.
Valery ZuevichCTO / Full-Stack Engineer
Builds and operates the systems: Kotlin services, React frontends, and the infrastructure that keeps them running.
How we operate
What you see is what you get.
We build for the real world
Software is only useful if real people pay for it or use it to save time. We put our energy into messy, unsexy operational problems.
Direct co-founder communication
You work with us, not with an account manager passing notes to a junior team.
Zero tech jargon
We tell you what a project costs, how long it takes and where the risks are. If we do not know, we say so upfront.
Execution over hype
We do not pretend to be a fifty-person agency. Two pragmatic operators, clean execution, no polished pitch deck.
