Gand is an independent software studio based in Istanbul and Tokyo, building and operating its own products. Guided by the belief that software should be made to last, the studio focuses on practical, carefully crafted tools and games rather than disposable projects. Its stated principles include no advertising, behavioral tracking, or sale of user data, alongside clear pricing and ongoing maintenance.

Gand’s products serve a range of everyday and creative needs. Skriv.ist is a minimalist progressive web app for focused reading, with offline access. Vigil Today offers gentle recurring reminders for daily rituals and important tasks. SUDONE helps shoppers scan product barcodes in stores and compare shelf prices with online offers. The studio also makes COMMIT!!!, a career simulation game about software work, available for Windows, Linux, and Android, and publishes games through Gand Games, its games label.

Gand describes its operation as a single-operator studio using a minimal serverless stack. It maintains its products and shares announcements about releases, including app availability in Japan.
