Preview soon03 THE STUDIO
Hard problems.
Human answers.
We are an independent software company with a taste for simple interfaces, strong systems and products with a point of view.
Hardtimes Interactive Inc. was founded in Ottawa to build and launch our own products. We work across product strategy, interface design, engineering and brand, keeping the whole experience under one roof.
Useful first
We start with a real problem, then remove everything that gets in the way of solving it.
Calm by design
The best software feels obvious. Clear language, considered motion and fewer decisions.
Built to last
Thoughtful systems underneath, character on the surface and room to grow over time.
