Xip Kit
Xip Kit · Software for individuals

Tools for people who make things.

Our mission is to unleash human creativity and ingenuity in the age of AI. We do it with small, fast, local-first software built for one person at a time: software you own outright, run on your own machine, and can understand end to end. AI should make an individual more capable. It should not make people optional.

Xip

macOS, Linux & Windows

HyperCard for the AI era. Describe a workflow in plain language and get a kit: a small, self-contained automation that runs on your machine, on your data, with permissions you can read. Cloud later, if you want it.

  • ■Local-first. SQLite on your disk, not someone's cluster.
  • ■Works with the agent you already use, over MCP.
  • ■Vibescript for when you want to see the gears.

  • ■Interactive 2D plots and 3D surfaces you can spin.
  • ■Scrub any value, drag geometry, transform a matrix.
  • ■Units, calculus, and matrices in plain language.

  • ■Runs on schedule, even while the app is closed.
  • ■A bundled CLI that shares the same config.

What we believe

Why Xip Kit exists, in one page.

We believe people want to make things.

To explore an idea. To solve a problem. To build something that didn’t exist before.

AI gives us a new kind of tool, one that can help us think, create, and build in ways that weren’t possible before.

We want that power to belong to the person using it.

So we build tools that are small, fast, and personal. They run on your computer. You own them. You can understand them, change them, and make them yours.

The best tools don’t replace the person using them.
They make the person more capable.

The future should have more makers, not fewer.

If there’s something you wish existed, make it.
We’ll build the tools to help you.
