Status: Building · Accepting client work

Product experiments,
shipped to production.

Type-Safe : Studio is a solo venture studio. I build software I believe should exist — and take on select client projects for teams that need a senior operator, not a dev shop.

Experiments in production.

Not slide decks. Running code. Several ideas at a time — some grow, some get shelved, all get shipped properly.

TBD

More studio builds in the pipeline. Same standards, new thesis.

// Client work

The studio takes on client work.

Client projects fund the build and keep the stack sharp. Same engineering standards as our own products — production-grade, type-safe, shipped by a solo operator who's done this at startup and scale-up.

01 / Engineering
Product engineering

Full-stack builds, MVPs, and hard technical problems — scoped tight, shipped fast.

02 / Infrastructure
Architecture & infra

Systems that scale without rewrites. The boring stuff done right from day one.

03 / AI
AI & data pipelines

LLM orchestration, observability, deterministic automation — production, not demos.

Hard-coded
capabilities.

The stack behind every studio build and client project.

Engineering

Distributed systems, type-safe backends, and high-concurrency architecture.

Product

Scoping the non-negotiables. Minimal surface area for maximum impact.

AI & Data

LLM orchestration, vector stores, and deterministic pipeline automation.

Infrastructure

Terraform, edge runtimes, and zero-downtime deployments by default.

// Operator

One operator.
Twenty years of receipts.

I'm Rich Huth — product engineer, entrepreneur, and the operator behind Type-Safe : Studio. I've spent the last two decades shipping software across early-stage startups, Series C scale-ups, and frontier AI tooling.

Type-Safe : Studio is where that experience compounds — building product ideas I care about, and taking on client work when the fit is right.

Two ways in.

Building something and need a studio that ships? Or curious what we're working on?
