About MakeLabs
MakeLabs is a solo software studio building Android apps and SaaS products. MakeLabs is operated by a single developer using AI-assisted workflows, and is registered as a sole proprietorship in Karnataka, India under Udyam Registration No. UDYAM-KR-26-0061081.
MakeLabs operates the website at makelabs.io, publishes Android applications on the Google Play Store under the MakeLabs developer account, and operates independent web-based SaaS products under their own domains (see Section 3).
Our mission is to build practical, privacy-respecting software for underserved audiences — one product, one problem, at a time.
Acceptance of Terms
By accessing the MakeLabs website (makelabs.io) or using any MakeLabs product, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and customers of MakeLabs.
If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our website or products. These Terms may be updated from time to time. We will notify users of material changes through in-app notifications or website announcements. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
These Terms should be read alongside our Privacy Policy at makelabs.io/privacy.html, which governs how we handle your personal data.
MakeLabs Products
MakeLabs develops and publishes Android applications and web-based SaaS products. Each product may have its own specific privacy policy or terms that supplement these general Terms. Current products include:
- Shift Desk — Android salary and shift tracker for shift workers. Privacy policy at makelabs.io/shift-desk-privacy.html
- SignaCard — Email signature design tool, operated at signacard.cards
- Audio Node — AI text-to-speech platform, operated at audionode.dev
SignaCard and Audio Node are operated as independent web products under their own domains and may have their own terms of service and privacy policies governing use of those specific products. Where a product-specific policy exists, it takes precedence for matters specific to that product; these Terms otherwise apply to your relationship with MakeLabs generally.
New products may be added to the MakeLabs portfolio over time. MakeLabs reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any product at any time with reasonable advance notice where possible.
