About

The Story

Michael Craig Group is a software studio focused on building tools that respect their users. We believe the best software serves the person using it — not advertisers, data brokers, or surveillance infrastructure.

Our products span creative production, business operations, event management, education, and aviation. What ties them together isn't the domain — it's the approach. Every tool we build starts from the same foundation: your data belongs to you.

Why Privacy First?

Because the alternative is unacceptable. The modern software industry has normalized treating user data as a commodity. We reject that model entirely.

We don't collect what we don't need. We encrypt what we do. We build architectures where mass data extraction is technically infeasible, not just against the terms of service.

The Philosophy

Good software should feel like a tool, not a trap. It should work offline. It should let you export your data in standard formats. It should never make you the product.

We're not building the next platform that locks you in. We're building tools you can trust — and leave, if you ever want to.

Open by Default

Transparency isn't a marketing angle — it's a technical requirement. Our products aim to use open formats, provide full data exportability, and document exactly what data exists and how to delete it.
