Long (120 words)
Intrigue MMC LLC is an independent company that builds focused software, with a little publishing on the side. Founded in 2024 in Illinois and run by Tim Blackburn, it works on long timelines and ships nothing it would not use itself. Its studio, Intriguing Insight, is software-first: it makes three apps and one book, Think Sharper with AI, a practical guide to working with AI tools. The three apps are BabyBlocks (a family of focused iOS apps anchored by BudgetBaby), Foundry (the Founder Operating System, live at foundry-os.io), and ScreenForge (a native macOS app for designing App Store screenshot sets). The company runs no advertising, sells no user data, and connects to no bank accounts.
