Indie digital studio from Melbourne

We build small, thoughtful digital products that feel like a fresh cup of coffee.

Boolean and Bean is a tiny studio obsessed with the details—clean code, clear UX, and products that quietly make everyday life easier. Our first brew: Wishlee, a modern wishlist and gift exchange app.

Real, shipped products — crafted end-to-end from idea to production.

Boolean = true/false logic. Bean = the coffee fueling it.

Next experiments

Boolean and Bean is intentionally small. We ship focused tools, listen, refine, and then slowly take on the next idea.

Future products might include tiny SaaS tools, utilities for creators, or more "wishlist-adjacent" experiences.

The studio

Where boolean logic meets the coffee bean.

01

Product thinking first

Not just "build whatever." We care about use-cases, edge cases, and whether the product actually earns a place in someone's day.

02

Full-stack craftsmanship

From database schemas to microinteractions, we design and build the entire stack with performance and maintainability in mind.

03

Small, opinionated, human

No buzzword bingo. Just clear communication, realistic timelines, and a bias toward shipping.

About Boolean and Bean

A nod to code and caffeine.

The name is literal: Boolean for true/false logic in programming, and Bean for the coffee powering long build sessions.

Boolean and Bean exists to turn small, sharp ideas into digital products you actually want to use — tools that reduce friction instead of adding another tab full of notifications.

We like opinionated UX, sensible defaults, and features that earn their keep. If a product doesn't make things meaningfully better, it doesn't ship.

What we care about

  • Clear, minimal interfaces without marketing clutter.
  • Fast, reliable web experiences that work well on mobile.
  • Respecting users' time and attention, not fighting for it.
  • Iterating in the open, improving based on real feedback.

Build something together?

Whether it's a small internal tool, a public-facing app, or the next Wishlist-style product, we're open to collaborations and interesting problems.
