Who are we?

First things first, currently Repose Software is ran by me, Lesley van der Lee, with no other employees. I founded TAYO Creative in 2019 as a freelancing business. However, my passion soon led me to develop helpful software that helps people with their daily lives, including tools that I could use myself. As a result, I abandoned the TAYO Creative name and began creating self-help software with the intention of releasing it to the public.

Fast forward four years to 2023, and Repose Software is born. The goal of Repose Software is to help individuals through powerful and intelligent software. I aim to provide everyone with data-driven personal development tools to help them take control of life's typically challenging aspects. In today's world it's more important than ever to prioritize physical and mental health. I do not like the idea of profiting off of people's behavioral and thought patterns. That's why all of our software is free to use, when used as intended, for a single person. On top of that, all of our products are free from advertising.

The story behind the name

Let's revisit the year 2018, when the name TAYO Creative was first conceived. I was captivated by the richness and diversity of Asian cultures, and thus drew inspiration from the Japanese word Tayō (多様), which translates to "diverse" or "variety". This name resonated with me, as TAYO Creative's services spanned a wide range of disciplines, from website and graphic design to comprehensive software development.

Back to 2022, and I honed my mission to focus on developing software that empowers individuals to lead more productive and fulfilling lives. This led to the creation of Repose Software, a name that embodies the company's commitment to providing innovative software solutions that bring peace of mind to its users. With Repose Software, I aim to enable people to be productive without the added stress and worry.

Who am I?

Hi! I'm Lesley, founder of Repose Software. My main reason for creating Repose stems from my own mental health journey. I figured I could make some software to make my life easier and help myself where I am still struggling. Personally, I find building new healthy habits very hard, among other things. That's why I created Repose's first product, Jiko!

I personally believe in the power of technology. However, as a programmer at heart, I also see the very pitfalls that it brings. A lot of products nowadays are designed to keep you consuming as much of it as possible, meanwhile showing as many advertisements as possible. It's not for no reason that so many people nowadays are addicted to these products.

I intend for Repose Software to be different. Use these same mechanisms and the same data not to get users addicted to the software, but rather allow them to harness the full power of modern-day computing for personal growth. My main personal goal is to help as many people in need as possible, and I firmly believe ethical software is the way to go.
