The Studio

Apps for the things you already do.

Strata is an independent studio building a small catalogue of native iOS apps. Every app is engineered in-house, designed end-to-end, and shipped only when it's ready.

Say hello

How an app takes shape

Layer by layer.

  1. ConceptEvery app starts as a single idea worth keeping.
  2. StructureNative Swift architecture, built for the platform.
  3. SurfaceEvery pixel designed end-to-end, in-house.
  4. MotionSixty frames a second. Transitions you never notice, because they never stutter.
  5. ShipOnly when it's ready. No deadlines, no compromise.

The apps

In the workshop.

A small catalogue, built one app at a time. The first is nearly out. The rest get named when they are ready, and not a day before.

The Reelo app icon.

Coming soon

Reelo

Names the film or series a screenshot came from, then tells you where to watch it. Hand it a frame; Oscar does the looking.

Craft

Where creativity
meets precision.

Great software happens when design intuition and engineering discipline work as one. That's how we build every app: one studio, one standard, no handoffs.

How we build

Every layer
has a reason.

Worth keeping.

Every app starts as one idea we'd want on our own home screen. No trend-chasing, no growth hacks.

Native iOS. Only.

Pure Swift, UIKit and SwiftUI. No cross-platform shortcuts, no web views pretending to be apps.

Built in-house.

Design and engineering happen in the same room. One studio, end to end, and nothing decided by committee.

Sixty frames, or it waits.

Animation, transitions and scrolling are built to a 60fps budget. If it stutters, it doesn't ship.

Privacy first.

No ads, no ad identifiers, no analytics SDKs phoning home. When an app needs a server, its privacy policy names every service that receives your data.

Questions,
answered.

Who is Strata Studio?

An independent studio building native iOS apps in Swift. Design and engineering happen in the same room, so each app feels like one decision rather than a handoff. You can reach us at hello@stratastudio.app.

What is Reelo?

An iPhone app that names the film or series a screenshot came from, then tells you where to watch it. It is the first app we are shipping. It is not on the App Store yet; leave your email above and you will get one message the day it is.

What happens to the screenshot I send?

It is sent to our server and on to Google Gemini for analysis. It is not stored on our servers: it is processed in memory and dropped when the request ends. Your photo library is never scanned; only images you pick are seen. Google does not use it to improve products or train models, and keeps it for abuse review for at most 55 days. The whole image is analysed, so crop anything private before sending. Full detail is in the Reelo privacy annex.

Is Reelo free?

Reelo is free to use. Reelo Pro is a subscription: monthly, yearly, or lifetime. There is no free trial, and prices are set per territory and shown in the App Store.

Why native only?

Because the platform is the product. Native Swift gives us the performance, accessibility and system integration that cross-platform layers trade away.
