Our story
It all started with print: magazine layouts, editorial workflows and the first websites of our own – back before the year 2000. That’s where the “Publishing” in our name comes from.
What followed were more than two decades of software for large insurers, corporations and agencies: websites, portals and apps – from the first concept to leading entire development teams. Later came cloud, IT operations and security, most recently as Head of IT Operations at an international company.
Along the way, there were always apps of our own – the first one almost 20 years ago. In 2011 came time2words: more than 200,000 downloads, featured by Apple as iPad App of the Week – and now back as Timeless.
In 2025 it was time to focus fully on our own ideas again. Since 2026, this has officially become BuddhaCat Publishing: a small studio that puts all this experience into apps that do you good.
Why BuddhaCat?
The answer is sitting right there in the photo: Lili, our cat. Her favorite spot is next to the golden Buddha – unless she happens to be asleep on a keyboard. Calm and technology – at some point it was clear: this exact mix should not just be part of our apps, but show up right in the company name, too.
And that’s how Lili became the namesake of BuddhaCat Publishing.
