Exploration log · The work, charted
Every project is a crossing — open water at the start, a fixed point on the map at the end. Here's the route we've charted so far, plotted in the order we sailed it.

Soundings · Before you set sail
There's no fixed minimum. Project scope and pricing live with HonuVibe Studio — transparent tiers start at $500, with the full range at studio.honuvibe.ai. Learning engagements for teams and communities are scoped on our partnerships page.
We default to Next.js + Tailwind + Supabase + Vercel because it ships fast and stays maintainable. We'll happily work in your stack if you have one.
Claude and Cursor are first-class tools in our build process — not bolt-ons. We design prompts, libraries, and review loops the way a senior engineer designs functions. The result: more shipped, less typed.
Yes — fully. Code, designs, content, and accounts transfer to you at handoff. We retain no exclusive rights.
Bilingual EN/JP is core to how HonuVibe operates. Every project can ship with JP-native typography, layout, and copy reviewed by a native speaker — not machine translation.
Every waypoint on this chart began as a conversation. Bring us your destination and we'll plot the course — or start learning and put your own work on the map.
