Intriguing Insight · The Studio
A small studio. Careful tools. The kind of book that stays on your desk.
We make native apps, software for founders, and writing that earns its shelf. A small catalogue, a slow pace, a high bar. Have a look around.

The Book
Think Sharper with AI
A full-length book about actually getting work done with language models. No hype, no lists of prompts to memorise, no tricks that stop working next week. A way of thinking you can put to use today.

The list
Hear from us when something new lands.
A short email, every so often. New books, new apps, the occasional note on what we are working on. No firehose, no heavy sales pitch.
No spam, ever. Unsubscribe whenever you like.
The studio
A small catalogue, on purpose.
We would rather put out three things a year that hold up than thirty that do not. Every product on this site was built because we felt the gap ourselves, not because it looked like a market.
Intriguing Insight is a brand of Intrigue MMC LLC. Books, software, and a few native apps you will actually keep around.

Drafts per idea
Until it earns its keep.
Kind words are on the way.
As readers send notes in, this is where they will go. For now, the best thing to judge us on is the book itself.
Have a look around the studio.
Software, books, and a few calm apps. Each one came from a real gap and went through more drafts than we would care to admit.
