§ 05 — Studio

Made on the bluff, from Memphis, Tennessee.

We named the studio after Ptah — the Egyptian craftsman god of the first Memphis — because his creation myth is the cleanest description we've found of what this work actually is.

What exists first in the mind becomes real through craftsmanship. Vision, then form. Imagination, then creation.

§ 06 — Who runs the studio

Drew Dickson.

Founder · Principal engineer

A decade of shipping software for teams who would have rather been doing anything else than spec'ing it. Ptech is the studio I wished existed when I was on the buying side: small enough to actually care about your weird edge cases, technical enough to ship the thing.

Before Ptech: building AI tooling, web platforms, and the occasional internal CRM that nobody wanted to maintain. Now: in Memphis, on the bluff, building for clients who'd like something real.
