The Aighth · Release 01
Act fully. Let go gently.
We build small, quiet software that respects your attention. First up: Nishkam, the Bhagavad Gita, read through the season of life you're in.
Every point of light here is one of the Gita's 701 verses, in eighteen arms, one per chapter. The bright one is 2.47. Hover a star to trace its chapter. Scroll, and the night turns to morning.

01On-device
All 701 verses are AES-256 encrypted inside the app and decrypted on your phone.
02One sign-in
Google Sign-In is the only network call. Your name stays on the phone. Your email is never stored.
03Zero trackers
No analytics, no ads, no tracking SDKs. Sign out or clear data and it's gone.
This website keeps the same standard. It sets no cookies, loads nothing from anyone else, and your browser checks every script and stylesheet against a fingerprint before running it. Found a hole? Tell us privately.
We'd rather ship one thing that's finished than five that are almost. Nishkam took a long time to get right: every verse, three lenses, three languages, and not one tracker. That's the standard for everything that comes after it.
