Ultara builds focused, high-quality native apps for developers, power users, and productivity-minded people who expect more from their software.
There's too much mediocre software in the world. Bloated apps, dark patterns, subscription fees for things that need no server. We build the opposite: focused tools with a fair price and no games.
Real native code. SwiftUI on iOS. No web wrappers, no Electron, no compromises.
Every app does one thing extremely well. No feature bloat, no kitchen-sink sprawl.
Pay once, own it forever. We don't charge recurring fees for features that run on your hardware.
Your data stays on your device. No analytics, no tracking, no third-party data sharing.
We're starting with the tool we always wanted but couldn't find — and more developer-focused apps are on the way.
The homelab management app that should have existed years ago. Control your entire self-hosted stack — Proxmox, Portainer, TrueNAS, Pi-hole, Uptime Kuma, Home Assistant — from one beautiful native iOS app. No web views, no tab juggling, no compromises.
HomeLab Commander is the first of several focused developer and productivity tools we're building. We're solving real problems we encounter every day as developers — and we think you'll recognize them too.
Ultara LLC is an independent software company building native apps for developers and productivity-minded people. We're based in Evanston, Illinois — just north of Chicago.
We started because we kept running into the same frustration: tools built for the problem space we care about were either nonexistent, mediocre, or priced with subscriptions for features that don't need a server.
So we're building them ourselves — with the quality bar and pricing model we'd want as users.
Company formed in Illinois with a mission to build high-quality native developer tools.
Our first iOS app is actively in development. Native SwiftUI with real API integrations for the homelab community.
