TrueEyed Jack

Local first. Always intelligent.

True Eyed Jack is a software studio. We ship local-first products, publish open source when it helps, keep other work in development until it is ready, and take on programming and data projects when a partner needs that history in the room.

Product

Video Compression

Launching 2026

Compress video on your iPhone and iPad without sending your media to the cloud. Shoot somewhere memorable with thin cellular or café Wi-Fi? Smaller files are easier to share, back up, and keep your edit moving before you're back on fast internet.

  • On-device processing. No cloud uploads.
  • Presets from quick shares to high-quality exports
  • Quality-aware compression tuned to each clip
  • Lightweight files that travel well when in remote locations
  • Save to Photos or Files when you're done
  • Automate with Shortcuts, Siri, and Apple Intelligence

Open source

Code you can read

When a tool is useful to someone besides us, we publish it. You can read it, run it locally, and fork it. No account wall. That includes utilities, libraries, and data projects that belong in the open.

Public work lives on GitHub under ldjessee-code.

In development

Still on the bench

Not everything is a store listing yet. Apps, maps, and experiments stay in development until they are ready. They have to be useful, and they have to be careful with what leaves the device.

Video Compression is the first of that queue. More applications will follow, including work that is real today and not yet ready to sell.

Services

Programming and data

Three decades of programming and two decades of data analysis, engineering, and architecture. Available as partnership, not a slide deck. Catalog work, pipelines, and analysis for teams who need the data to stay true.

One example is exoplanet analytics. We work from public NASA exoplanet and stellar-host catalogs: clean them, classify systems, and produce measurements and maps you can use. Ranking, network construction, and the catalog labor underneath.
