Our story

We build tools that protect your flow

Dreamilia started with a simple idea: backups should be effortless, private, and built for the way creators actually work.

Mission & Principles

Everything we ship ties back to privacy, reliability, and developer‑grade UX.

Local‑first, zero‑knowledge by default
No telemetry or ads—ever
Respect the filesystem—be fast, small, reliable
Design for recovery first—assume bad days happen
Integrate where you work—Shortcuts, Git, cloud

Our story

From a weekend recovery script to a polished app used worldwide.

2022 — The spark

After losing hours of work to a corrupted project, we built a small tool that snapshotted folders on a schedule and kept a simple timeline.

2023 — Prototype

Added selective restore, diff previews, and a local‑first encryption model. Early testers loved the simplicity.

2024 — Cloud connectors

Introduced iCloud/Dropbox/Drive sync and Git‑aware automation. The name Dreamilia was born.

2025 — v1.0

Public release with a refined dashboard, multi‑cloud conflict handling, and keyboard‑first UX.

What we value

A few tenets that shape decisions, tradeoffs, and the roadmap.

Privacy

We can’t sell what we don’t collect. Your data stays with you—encrypted and offline‑friendly.

Portability

Use the cloud you want, or none. Exports are plain and documented.

Time well‑spent

Automation, shortcuts, and sensible defaults reduce chores. We sweat the details so you don’t have to.

Team

A small crew of builders who love shipping calm, reliable software.
