The humans behind the apps

Hi. We’re
Daniel & Traci.

A small studio. Two very real people.
More ideas than we know what to do with.

We like tools that solve an everyday frustration and games that bring people together. That’s the thread running through the apps we’re making.

Freshpath Studio is our little corner of Lincoln, California. We’re starting with iPhone, with other platforms down the road.

Come say hello

Your idea could be next

was an app
for that.”

Let’s talk about making it.
