We build. We innovate.
We create.
Grace Network designs and engineers software for the systems people rely on — and grows a small group of branches to carry specific ideas further, starting with Gracely Network.
Every product carries the same set of standards, whether it ships from Grace Network or one of its branches.
Built with precision
Every line of code is written with intent, reviewed with care, and shipped only when it's ready.

About Grace Network
A software company, and the group of branches built underneath it.
What we do
Grace Network builds software and the systems it runs on. Some of that work stays inside the company as internal tools and infrastructure; some of it grows into its own branch, with its own team and its own products, like Gracely Network.
How we work
We keep a small number of standards constant across every branch, so a product built under Grace Network always feels considered rather than rushed:
- —Precision in how software is written and reviewed, not just how it looks when it ships.
- —Innovation aimed at ideas that change habits, not just add features.
- —Performance treated as a requirement from day one, not a fix for later.
- —Security built into the foundation of every system, before a single user touches it.
The group
Grace Network sits at the center of the group. Gracely Network is its first branch, fully funded by Grace Network and focused on Android & iOS apps — including Dude and the upcoming Picso, with more incoming projects on the way. Two more branches are already taking shape and will be introduced when they're ready.
Gracely Network
The Android & iOS apps branch of Grace Network — fully funded by Grace Network.
What it is
Gracely Network is Grace Network's dedicated team for mobile apps. Its purpose is simple: take an idea from a first prototype to a finished app and launch it on both Android and iOS — separate from Grace Network's core software work, but built to the same standard, and entirely funded by Grace Network from day one.
What it's building
Dude, a messaging and calling app, is Gracely Network's first release and is launching now. Picso is next in line and is still in development. Both apps live entirely under the Gracely Network brand, and both are on their way to Android and iOS.
Latest incoming projects
This is the place to watch what's next out of Gracely Network. Here's where things stand right now:
- —Dude — messaging & calling, launching now.
- —Picso — photos app, in active development.
- —A third Gracely project is already being scoped, with a public reveal once it's ready.
Why it exists
- —To give mobile products a focused team, instead of splitting attention with Grace Network's core systems work.
- —To move at the pace a phone app needs — fast iteration, direct feedback, frequent releases.
- —To give each app its own identity while staying accountable to Grace Network's standards.
Gracely's tree
Gracely Network sits underneath Grace Network, and carries its own pair of apps beneath it.
Branch 02
A second branch of Grace Network.
Not announced yet
Grace Network is putting together a second branch. It doesn't have a public name or focus yet — that will be shared once it's ready to stand on its own, the same way Gracely Network was.
Check back on this page — Branch 02 will appear here, in the group tree, the moment it's ready to share.
Branch 03
A third branch of Grace Network.
Not announced yet
A third branch is also in the works. Like Branch 02, its name and focus are still under wraps while the idea takes shape inside Grace Network.
Once it's ready, Branch 03 will take its place in the group tree alongside Gracely Network and Branch 02.
Dude
Messaging & calling for Android, by Gracely Network.
Overview
Dude is Gracely Network's first app — a straightforward way to message and call the people you actually talk to, without the extra noise that's crept into most chat apps. It's launching now on Android, with a sign-in flow that takes just a phone number or an email address.
What's inside
- —Instant one-on-one and group messaging, with photo, video and voice messages built in.
- —Voice and video calling, including group calls, not bolted on as an afterthought.
- —Status updates — post a photo, video, line of text or voice note that fades after a day.
- —App lock and biometric unlock, plus fine-grained control over who can see your status or reach you at all.
- —Chat backup and a chat wallpaper picker, so a conversation still looks like yours.
Status
Dude is Gracely Network's flagship release and is rolling out now. Feedback from this launch will shape the next update.
How Dude actually works
A quick look at what happens the moment you sign in, send a message, or start a call.
You verify with just a phone number or an email address — a one-time code confirms it's you, and you're in. No password to invent, no separate account to set up first.
The moment you hit send, your message arrives on your friend's phone — no refreshing, no waiting for it to "come through." The same live connection is what keeps the green "online" dot accurate, so you know when someone's actually there.
Photos, videos and voice notes upload securely straight from your phone, then load back in full quality from a fast, global network — so a video you send lands quickly whether your friend is next door or on the other side of the world.
The moment your friend picks up, both phones connect directly for the call itself — so voice and video stay fast and clear instead of getting funneled through a slow middleman. Works the same way for group calls too.
You're notified instantly, even if Dude has been fully closed for days. That's what lets an incoming call ring with a real full-screen alert — with its own ringtone — instead of a quiet notification that's easy to miss.
It's all built to stay out of your way — every piece works together so a message sent on one phone shows up on the other in a fraction of a second, every time.
Picso
Coming next from Gracely Network, for Android.
Overview
Picso is the app taking shape right after Dude. It's still early, so most of it is under wraps — but the name points at what it's about: photos, and simpler ways to work with them.
What we can share so far
- —Built for Android, like everything else from Gracely Network.
- —Centered on photos — capturing, organizing, or sharing them more simply.
- —Following Dude as Gracely Network's second release.
Status
Picso is in active development. There's no release date yet — this page will update as soon as there is.
No updates in this category yet — check back soon.
Built with precision
How Grace Network treats the details.
What this means
Precision means nothing ships because it's "close enough." Every feature is scoped clearly, built deliberately, and checked against what it was supposed to do before it goes anywhere near a user.
How it shows up
- —Code reviews that look for edge cases, not just working demos.
- —Small, well-defined releases instead of large, risky ones.
- —Design details — spacing, wording, timing — treated as part of the product, not polish added at the end.
Focused on innovation
How Grace Network chooses what to build.
What this means
Innovation, here, isn't about being first — it's about being useful in a way nobody else quite is. That's why Grace Network builds branches like Gracely Network instead of bolting every idea onto one product.
How it shows up
- —New ideas get their own space — like a branch — instead of being squeezed into an existing product.
- —Apps like Dude are built around one clear problem, not a long feature list.
- —Early, unfinished ideas — like Picso and the branches still coming — are allowed to stay quiet until they're ready.
Engineered for performance
How Grace Network builds for speed.
What this means
Performance isn't a benchmark chased after launch — it's a constraint from the first line of code. That matters most in apps like Dude, where a slow call or a delayed message breaks the whole point of the product.
How it shows up
- —Apps built to stay fast on lower-end Android devices, not just flagship phones.
- —Backend systems sized for real usage, not just demo traffic.
- —Performance regressions treated as bugs, not "future improvements."
Secure by design
How Grace Network protects what people trust it with.
What this means
Security decisions get made at the start of a project, not added in after something goes wrong. That's especially true for a messaging and calling app like Dude, where people are trusting Gracely Network with private conversations.
How it shows up
- —Access and permissions scoped to what a feature actually needs, nothing more.
- —Sensitive data handled deliberately, with clear limits on what's stored and for how long.
- —Security reviewed as part of every release, not as a separate, occasional audit.
