About Lanternwright
Short
Lanternwright makes small software tools that run on your own device, with no accounts and no tracking, and plans one-time prices instead of subscriptions.
Long
Lanternwright is a one-person software studio in the United States. It makes small tools for specific jobs: a profit tracker for part-time resellers, live captions for Windows, a reading toolbar for the browser, prop printing and note publishing for tabletop game masters, and a few more. They run on your own computer or phone, don't need an account and don't collect analytics. Paid features are planned as one-time purchases, and accessibility features are never paid extras. Nothing has launched yet. Netkeep, the reseller profit tracker, is first in line.

Screenshots
Every screenshot here was taken with sample data, so nothing in them is anyone's real records. The other products don't have screenshots yet.
- Netkeep: The Sales page. This is Netkeep's built-in sample shop, so every sale and cost in it is made up, After an import, Netkeep lists the buyer columns it dropped before saving anything, The cost-of-goods worksheet for your tax preparer, from the same sample shop
- Readglass: Line focus dims everything but the line you're on. The article is an example page written for these screenshots, Reading mode, with the letter and word spacing turned way up
- Prop Press: A newspaper front page, filled in with Prop Press's own sample text. This is the free demo build, A formal letter with a wax seal, And a wanted poster, because somebody has to answer for that goat
- Pacing Companion: The daily check-in. Each tap saves on its own, so a check-in still counts on a rough day, Patterns describe what you logged, and don't try to explain it. The entries here are sample data
Logo
