01
PermanentUnderclass: dictation for the Mac that doesn't flake out
Announcing PermanentUnderclass, an open source macOS app for quick dictation and two-track meeting/interview transcription, built because the alternatives were slow or unreliable.
02
A seatbelt for AI agents
Why Little Control Room now blocks direct rm commands, why this guard is intentionally narrow, and why agent security will eventually need semantic review.
03
LCAgent Model Benchmark: score, cost, and routing trade-offs
A practical coding-agent benchmark for Little Control Room, comparing model quality, cost, latency, tool use, and prompt caching.
Our expertise
How we can help.
Real-time 3D & simulation
Graphics, controls, physics, visualization, performance, and the details that create good feel.
Data-intensive systems
Trading, operational data, search, analytics, and software that must remain dependable under complexity.
Selected client system / ANCI DIGITALE
AI for civic intelligence.
For ANCI Digitale, we built Aurora IA: an operational system that combines web research, AI analysis, and institutional data to help monitor changes involving Italian mayors.
Seminars
Practical technical seminars.
A small part of the studio: focused English-language sessions, including recent material prepared for Irvine Systems.
