Independent UK Software Studio • North East England

Engineered for Ownership, Privacy & Transparency

Dunwell Software was founded on a straightforward principle: desktop software should belong to the person using it. In an era of forced cloud accounts, recurring monthly subscriptions, and silent telemetry, we build standalone Windows applications that run locally on your machine and respect your privacy by default.
