DigitalBorders

DigitalBorders / Studio

We build the products that don't fit one box.

Software, hardware, and the immersive layer in between — shipped end to end by four senior engineers.

Who we build for

  • Jocondo
  • a due-diligence firm
  • a music-heritage catalog
  • a schoolbook publisher
  • an industrial materials manufacturer
  • a global coffee-machine maker

And we ship our own products — Varco and a set of open-source tools.

Featured work

Proof, not adjectives.

Case studies that lead with the hard technical problem and how we solved it — end to end.

Connected Devices

Smart planters that form a self-healing LoRa mesh

Jocondo

DigitalBorders took Jocondo's smart planters from prototype to product — firmware, a self-healing LoRa mesh we built and open-sourced, an Appwrite backend, and a React Native app, end to end. Pots mesh over LoRa where Wi-Fi can't reach, and any connected pot bridges the rest to the cloud.

  • ESP32
  • ESPHome
  • C++
  • LoRa mesh
  • BLE

AI & Automation

A browser farm and a multi-LLM rule engine for document due diligence

a due-diligence firm

A due-diligence firm needed to pull verifiable facts out of source documents that only exist behind logged-in web portals. DigitalBorders built the whole pipeline — a farm of real Chrome browsers, driven over the DevTools Protocol, that collect the documents, and a multi-LLM rule engine that extracts each fact and ties it back to where it came from.

  • Neko
  • Puppeteer
  • Chrome DevTools Protocol
  • OpenRouter
  • Convex

Software & SaaS

A music-heritage catalog, from a public map to a self-building admin

a music-heritage catalog

A music-heritage catalog — composers, compositions, and the places they were performed — needed a public app to explore it and a back office to curate it. DigitalBorders built both — an installable map you browse on the web or as an Android app, and an admin whose forms and tables are generated from the data's own schema. One team owned the web app, the admin, the backend, and the deploy.

  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • Appwrite
  • Leaflet
  • PWA

Immersive / XR

A virtual museum that lets readers step inside a printed art book

a schoolbook publisher

A schoolbook publisher wanted readers of a printed art book to step inside the works, not just look at them on the page. DigitalBorders built the companion app — a virtual museum in Unity, shipped to iOS and Android from one codebase, that you walk through on a phone or in stereoscopic VR with Google Cardboard.

  • Unity
  • C#
  • Google Cardboard
  • iOS
  • Android

Connected Devices

An unattended service that turns machine tests into clean data

an industrial materials manufacturer

On the production line of an industrial materials manufacturer, a test machine wrote a new spreadsheet for every run and spoke to its controller over serial and OPC-UA. DigitalBorders built the unattended service that reads the machine, parses each result the moment it lands, and ships it to the cloud — and the dashboard the engineers review it in.

  • Electron
  • serialport
  • OPC-UA
  • Appwrite
  • React

Products

We ship our own products, too.

Not just client work. We design, build, and run our own software — so we live with the decisions we make.

Varco

An event-management SaaS we designed, built, and run.

Plus open-source tools: console-peek, Puck plugins, and videocall-transcribe.

The people who pitch are the people who build.
