About
Small by design.
Serious about the work.
Cedarwave Technologies is an independent software studio based in Washington State. We build and operate focused software products with an emphasis on clarity, privacy, and long-term usefulness.
We would rather do one thing carefully than ten things loudly. Products stay small on purpose, ship when they are ready, and are maintained like they will be around for a long time.
Cedarwave Technologies is a registered trade name of IQBAL, LLC.
Operating principles
Clear about what a product does
Plain descriptions and honest status labels. No claims ahead of the software.
Privacy and boundaries by design
Features default to the smallest audience that makes them work — and say so plainly.
Built for long-term stewardship
We operate what we ship: steady, compatible releases over constant reinvention.
