About

A tiny studio with a simple goal

Ugam Labs makes apps and games that help people do a little more with a little less effort. We believe software for personal growth should feel light and joyful — not like another chore on your to-do list.

“Ugam” means origin, or a rising — the moment something begins. That's the feeling we chase in every product: a small spark that makes your day a bit better, again and again. Today that idea lives in a small family of Android apps — Cognito (free brain training), Chess Connect (real-time multiplayer chess), Sudoku Crazy! (a fresh, level-based sudoku) and Playbook (an encrypted trading journal) — all free, with more on the way.

Useful
Solves a real, everyday need.
Joyful
A pleasure to open and use.
Honest
No dark patterns, ever.

We keep the studio small and the apps free, and we'd rather earn a permanent spot on your home screen than a recurring charge on your card. Got an idea or some feedback? Say hello — it genuinely shapes what we build next.
