software studio — ai, chains, firmware, the hard parts

insonl is a small studio of engineers in Ho Chi Minh City. We revived a rhythm game its publisher shut down, launched a chain, and built the AI that keeps a Vietnamese review site civil. We take hard systems apart, then build new ones that hold up.

(01) — method
Most studios start from a brief. We start from the box: dump it, map it, read what the last team left behind. Then we build the version that holds up.

Web, mobile & desktop products
Products people use every day, built so the next team can read them. We own the stack end to end, from the first API contract to the store release.

We've shipped our own chain and our own mining pool, so we know where the money leaks. Contracts, protocols and the infrastructure under them.

Models that run where the work happens: in a moderation queue, on a camera, on a microcontroller with 512 KB to spare.

We read binaries, protocols and dead servers for a living. It's the same work whether you're hardening a system or bringing one back.
hover to inspect(03) — how we work
We take apart what exists: the code, the infra, the binary nobody has the source for. You get a written teardown before anyone quotes a timeline.
Architecture, contracts and interfaces on paper first. Cheap to change here, expensive everywhere after.
Weekly increments you can run, not slides about them. Same engineers from the first commit to launch.
Launch is where most of the bugs show up. We stay on to monitor, patch and harden until it runs without us.
