About
We build and run software businesses.
LWD Dev is an independent product studio in Philadelphia, PA. We start companies around problems we know well, grow them with the people who use them, and keep them for as long as we are the best owners.
Some of our products are still ours. Others found new homes with teams who could take them further.
How we work
Small teams, long horizons.
One problem at a time
Each product starts with a problem we have had ourselves, and a small team that owns it end to end.
Built to last
We choose boring technology, write things down and keep our products fast, private and simple.
Owners, not tenants
We fund our work with revenue, not rounds, so we answer to the people who use what we make.
Have something worth building?
We partner with a few founders and companies each year. Tell us what you have in mind.
