A personal lab making browser and desktop tools for animating images, cropping photos, restoring color, and displaying time.

Why it surfaced

Maruti Lab turns small experiments into usable objects: SwiftCrop processes images in the browser without sending them away, COLOR RE:FINE colorizes photos locally, and PromptTerm CLOCK runs free, registration-free, and offline on Windows. The site’s promise—“make small things, carry them through to where they really work”—is unusually clear.

Ham Is Specifically Discouraged

August 10’s newborn domains include a mock cryptid council that specifically discourages ham, a vintage phone collecting messages for Twyla’s 70th, a 4.5-meter dish measuring Galactic hydrogen at 1420 MHz, and an open index that found 530 sites permitting GPTBot in robots.txt while refusing it at the server.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-10 Domain Arrivals issue.
