The Tiny Story
How a lobster in a spacesuit became an AI company mascot (and other questionable decisions)
👋 Hey, we're tinyship.ai
We're a small crew (okay, mostly just Jeff) building AI tools that actually solve problems instead of creating new ones.
You know how every AI startup promises to "revolutionize" something and then gives you a chatbot that hallucinates your grandmother's maiden name? Yeah, we don't do that.
🎯 Our Philosophy
"Build tiny tools. Ship fast. Fix what breaks. Repeat."
— Jeff, while debugging at 3am
Every day, we launch something new. Some tools become genuinely useful. Others teach us valuable lessons about what NOT to build. Either way, we're shipping.
🦞 Why a Lobster?
Look, we needed a mascot and someone said "what about a lobster in a spacesuit?" and nobody could come up with a reason why not. So here we are.
Plus, lobsters are basically immortal and can regrow their claws. If that's not a metaphor for startup resilience, we don't know what is.
🚀 The Mission
Make AI accessible to everyone — not just people with CS degrees and unlimited OpenAI credits. Our tools are built for real humans solving real problems.
No jargon. No gatekeeping. No "10x your synergies with AI-powered blockchain solutions." Just tools that work.
