Today I am making Leonenko Group official.
Leonenko Group LLC is an independent software studio. We design, build, and operate our own products end to end. No agency work, no client services, no roadmap set by someone else. Just software we believe in, shipped with care.
Why start a studio
Most software is built to capture your attention and hold it. Notifications that do not need to exist. Streaks that punish you for living your life. Interfaces engineered to keep you scrolling. I wanted to build the opposite: products that do their job, respect your time, and then get out of the way.
A studio gives us the freedom to do that. When you own the product, you own the incentives. We are not optimizing for time-in-app or ad impressions. We are optimizing for whether the thing was genuinely useful and whether you felt better for having used it.
What we are building
Two products are shipping now, with more to come.
FaithWise is a daily companion for scripture, guided prayer, and reflection. It is calm, private, and quietly beautiful. It respects the seriousness of a daily practice without turning it into a game.
DreamTide is a quieter way to fall asleep. Sleep stories, soundscapes, and wind-downs crafted to help you rest. A dark, unhurried, distraction-free space for the end of the day.
Different audiences, same throughline: software that improves an everyday moment without demanding your constant attention.
How we build
We build with agentic AI at the core. It lets a small team move like a much larger one, from writing code to generating content to running operations. But AI is the engine, not the driver. Every product ships with human taste and craft behind it. Speed is only worth anything if the result is something we are proud to put our name on.
The company we want to be
A real company, built to last. Not a growth experiment waiting to be flipped, and not a project that disappears when it stops trending. We build for the long term. Private by design, calm by default, honest about what our products do and do not do.
This blog is where we will share what we ship, what we learn, and how we think about building. Thanks for being here at the start.
