Open tools for science and education.

Organization

Inat Open Apps builds and maintains small, local-first software tools for research, teaching, academic administration, manuscript work, scheduling, and careful home-lab operations. The projects are intended to be useful before they are polished, inspectable where source can be public, and clear about their privacy boundaries.

Mission

The mission is to make practical open apps that reduce friction in science and education without turning every workflow into an account, subscription, dashboard, or cloud service. The current project shelf includes Office History, CalShot, PubMate, Codex Terminal Pro, and Close Your Laptop.

Public-Benefit Direction

Inat Open Apps is being presented as a public-benefit software effort. The site does not currently claim tax-exempt nonprofit status. If a formal nonprofit entity or Apple organization account is established, this page should be updated with the legal entity details, mailing address, responsible contacts, and any required governance documents.

Governance

Governance is intentionally lightweight while the projects are still small. Project decisions are handled through public repositories, release notes, app-specific support boundaries, and conservative privacy defaults. Source repositories are public when that is compatible with the app, release, and user-safety model.

• Project source and issue tracking: GitHub.
• Installable builds: Builds.
