Ess X, where X is mobile apps, web apps, tools, games or media.

We build
what wins.

We are a product lab. We ship fast, learn from every launch, and turn it into apps that lead their niche. Ours, and yours.

The lab · 5 products live

Nothing we ship is a one-off.

Each product starts where the last one stopped. Two lineages are on their third generation.

AI image generation

From one narrow try-on tool to a full image-generation product. Each generation keeps what worked.

    Glancely

    AI hairstyle try-on

    See a new cut or colour on your own photo before you book it.

  2. Gen 2

    Idori

    AI design ideas for your spaces

    Start from a real photo of a room, apply a style, then refine details with Spot Edit.

  3. Gen 3

    VIZL

    The third generation

    Everything Glancely and Idori taught us about AI image tools, applied to one product.

Beat your niche.

AI made apps cheap to build, so building is no longer the hard part. Winning is. We bring the playbook we test on our own products: research, build, and the growth work after launch.

How every product gets made

  1. 01

    Research

    Map the niche with our own research tools before anything gets built.

  2. 02

    Ship

    Launch the smallest version that beats what is already there. Fast.

  3. 03

    Test

    Store listing, onboarding, pricing: every assumption gets an experiment.

  4. 04

    Compound

    What works carries into the next version, and into the next product.

Internal tools

We build our own tools first.

Before any Ess X app is built, it goes through tools we made ourselves for market research and product development. They’re why we can move this fast, and they power the work we do for clients.

  • Market research

    Find open niches, map competitors, and read what their users actually want.

  • Product development

    Go from a validated idea to a scoped, shipped product with fewer wasted cycles.
