Software made simple!

Welcome to Shimbi Labs! Since 2005, we've been cooking up simple, powerful, and affordable software for freelancers and small businesses to help them grow. Our quirky crew of designers, programmers, and engineers loves independence—no investors, no board, no exit plans, just pure innovation.

We're best known for making Budo, Ninjin, and Invoice, creating business software and writing business blogs.

We ditch the aggressive corporate hustle for a peaceful, collaborative vibe. Small teams can achieve big things, and sustainable growth is our mantra. We prioritize sustainable profitability over rapid growth, sticking to basic economic principles to ensure long-term reliability for our customers. With nearly two decades under our belt, we've got staying power and a knack for continuous improvement.

Our software development methodology emphasizes regular, manageable progress, preventing burnout and allowing frequent recalibration. We believe in a balanced life—8 hours for work, 8 hours for life, and 8 hours of sleep.

We value customer privacy and never sell data. Our business model is straightforward: people pay for our products, and that's the end of the transaction.

Remote work is our norm, with equal pay for equal work. Companies are obsessed with battling for huge Fortune 500 customers. That's boring. We're more interested in the Fortune 5,000,000. We cater to the often-overlooked Fortune 5,000,000—small and mid-sized companies like ours.

At Shimbi Labs, we are your trusted partner in innovation, committed to helping you succeed with simplicity and clarity. Join us on this journey of excellence.

Let's build something amazing together!
