About
An independent technology business.
Classy Methods builds privacy-focused software and conducts authorized security research. The two disciplines inform each other: research sharpens how we build, and building keeps research grounded in how software is actually made.
What we do
Three areas of work, one standard.
- 01
Software engineering
Native applications for iPhone and Mac, designed around on-device processing and clear explanations of what the software can and cannot determine.
- 02
Privacy technology
Tools that help people understand the connected technology around them — without accounts, advertising identifiers or analytics SDKs in the product.
- 03
Security research
Authorized research into web applications, APIs and authorization boundaries, reported privately through each organization's disclosure channel.
How we work
Independent thinking. Defensible conclusions.
We are deliberately small and independent. We do not claim government affiliation, and we do not describe organizations as clients unless they are.
- Rigorous
- Show the method and the evidence. Accuracy over spectacle.
- Discreet
- Confidentiality and professional restraint, in research and in product data.
- Independent
- Measured judgment over claims of certainty. No affiliations implied.
- Useful
- Turn complex findings into something a person or team can act on.
