Tiny
Payments
An amber square with a spark. Always wants to run first, even straight into a wall.
A small studio for big questions
Big ideas, explained tiny.
One question per video.

Drop
Messages and data
A blue drop of information. Flows through wires, pipes, and queues.
Sprout
AI and learning
A seed of an idea that grows. Studies the maze before looking for the way out.
Three series,
three questions.
How?
Tiny Journeys
Follow a tap, a send, a scan, or a payment through 6 to 10 stations. See the paper world—and the machine behind it.
Why?
Tiny Lessons
Two characters. One frame. A different way of thinking, with the key words brought into focus.
How to?
Tiny Toolbox
One tool or framework, one concrete problem. A mascot works through it in five steps at most.
Two layers in every journeyFrom the paper world to the machine behind it.
World
Paper and metaphor. A message becomes an envelope, a payment becomes a coin. No technical terms needed.
Machine
Navy blueprint. How it really works, with every fact verified one by one.
