About Zambadu
Zambadu is a small software company building practical products around how people actually use technology.
We use a human centred approach. Usability, reliability, accessibility, and clear interaction design are considered from the beginning rather than added later.
Our product portfolio is intentionally small. We focus on making each product useful before adding more.
A game and an early glimpse of AI-assisted building
I came up with a game about ten years ago, and it started life as a physical version. More than a year ago, I built a digital version using early generative AI coding tools. It was the first project that made me see how much these tools could change the world.
They could also be wildly unpredictable. Sometimes a prompt meant to change one thing would rewrite the whole interface. It felt like pulling the handle on a slot machine: you never quite knew what you would get.
The tools, and the systems around them, have improved a lot since then. For me, this game's story is tied to that first glimpse of what was becoming possible.
