An independent studio making Android apps and web products for testing, reference, cognitive-bias training, language practice, and phone-sensor utilities.

Why it surfaced

Pluto.Studio has a clear philosophy: build one focused thing, let people use it for four minutes, and get out of the way. Its portfolio ranges from an offline Dungeons & Dragons reference to Debias, which covers 188 cognitive biases and 18,869 scenarios, plus IndieHangar, a token-based testing and discovery platform for indie Android apps.
