Intrigue MMC LLC · Established 2024 · Illinois

Owned outright.
No investors.
Only the things
worth using.

Intrigue MMC is the company that holds it all together. The work itself comes out of Intriguing Insight, the studio. Everything below got built because it ought to exist, not because an investor asked for it.

01 / The Studio

Where the work actually happens.

Intriguing Insight is the studio. It's software-first: three apps and one book so far. Intrigue MMC sits behind it and handles the boring parts, the paperwork, the contracts, the bills. Insight makes the things people actually use.

02 / The Apps

What ships.

Each one has its own name, its own site, and its own people who use it. What they share is the same studio and the same way of building. That's the whole arrangement.

03 / How the work happens

Build the thing.
Skip the theatre.

Better to spend a year getting one app right than a week making a launch look big. Nothing ships unless it's good enough to keep using day to day. The rest of the thinking is on the manifesto page.

A note from the founder

"These are the apps I wished existed. The answer goes to the people who use them, not to investors. So far, that's exactly how it's gone."
Tim Blackburn Founder, Intrigue MMC
