Studio Northstar was founded by three makers with a shared fascination for innovation, technology and AI. We build software, SaaS platforms and AI products that solve problems people actually run into, in their work and in their daily lives.
The studio started in 2026 with a simple observation. AI models can now do a large share of the work that goes into software, from research to code to review. What they can't do on their own is stay pointed at the right goal, or judge their own output honestly. That part still needs a system, and people who decide.
So we built one. ARCS, our intelligence system, splits work into bounded tasks, hands each task to a specialist council and has every result checked by a model that didn't make it. Every task carries the long-term goal it serves: its north star.
We use the system in two ways. We build and run our own products with it, five so far, from a rain-advice app to a learning platform for teams. And we put it to work for companies: new products, internal tools, and reviews of code that has to hold up.
We build products that solve real problems for businesses and people, products that didn't exist before, that hold up beyond the demo.
When we believe in what we make, we stay close to it. Building, operating and growing it ourselves, so it keeps improving for the people using it.
A shared fascination for innovation, technology and AI. A shared ambition to turn what's now possible into products that hold up in practice.
Alan develops ventures, digital products and agentic systems at Studio Northstar. His work combines research, strategy, intelligence and hands-on development, with security embedded in each product from the first design decisions onward.
“The model is the same for everyone. The edge is in how you use it. And the biggest edge in AI is having data no one else has.”
