Your work. Your life. Your server.
OWL is one encrypted workspace for the day job — documents, mail, chat, boards and code — and for everything that isn't: your files, your photos, your films. Hosted by us, or running entirely on hardware you own.
What brings you here?
Everything you own, on a drive nobody else can read.
Your photos, your films, your documents, the chat with your family, the game backups you made from your own cartridges — one place, encrypted, with no advertiser on the other side of it. Start on the free tier and keep it, or take the whole thing home and run it on your own box.
- Stream your own film and TV library with OWL Media
- End-to-end encrypted chat, voice and video calls
- Private groups for family, clubs and communities
- Open documents, 3D scans and archives with nothing to install
- No ads, no content scanning, no training on your files
- Free tier to begin — no card, no trial clock
A workspace your team controls, end to end.
Mail, calendars, boards, Gantt plans, repositories and live co-edited documents — on infrastructure you can audit, host yourself, or cut off from the internet entirely. The admin console, the encryption and the compliance posture are all part of the product, not an upgrade tier.
- Mail, Calendar, Kanban, Projects and Repositories in one login
- Live co-editing on documents, spreadsheets and slides
- Server Admin for users, storage, security and health
- Self-host on your rack — or air-gap it completely
- Client-side decryption; the server holds no usable content key
- Published posture against CRA, NIST CSF, OWASP and SLSA
Or have us build the thing that doesn't exist yet.
The practice that produced OWL takes outside work. You bring the domain and the users; we build around them — the data formats they live in, the steps they repeat every day, the way results have to look when they hand them to a client. Prototype fast, extend for years.
- Custom 3D, mapping and measurement software, start to ship
- Map Pro, GNSS, LiDAR and calibration workflows
- Over a hundred licensable modules to build on
- AutoCAD and IntelliCAD interchange; 20+ 3D formats
- Installer framework, update servers and Office integration
- Enterprise licensing and on-premise deployment
This is the industry we opted out of
Data breaches, data brokers, and the business of selling people — reported by the journalists, regulators and advocates who cover it. Every headline links to their original.
Don't take our word for it. Walk in.
One click puts you inside the real OWL — the actual dashboard, the actual encrypted drive, the actual Kanban board with a team's week already on it. Drag the cards. Open the folders. Leave a comment. It's the same software our users run, not a video of it.
- No account, no email, no card
- Runs entirely in this browser tab
- Nothing you do reaches our servers
- Sign out and every trace is erased
Prefer the real thing already? The live document, spreadsheet and slides samples and the OWL-3D viewer open actual files — also without an account.
Why put all of it in one place?
Because the place is yours. That only means something if the architecture backs it up.
Encrypted before it leaves your device
With client-side decryption and provider-held recovery disabled, payload bytes are encrypted on your hardware and the server never receives a usable content key. How the encryption works
Self-host it, or air-gap it
The same OWL Server we run is the one you can run — on your rack, in your building, or on a network with no way out at all. About OWL Server

Built on the hard problems first
Before OWL, NDEVR spent years on the unglamorous end of software: mapping mine workings underground, holding a SLAM solution together while someone walks a scanner through a tunnel, opening point clouds with a hundred million points on a laptop in a field office. That work started in 2018 and it never stopped.





That engine didn't get retired when OWL arrived — it got a browser tab. OWL-3D opens the same CAD models and point clouds, in 20+ formats, with nothing to install. The reason we can be trusted with your whole workspace is the years we spent earning it on much harder data.
Still building custom
The engineering practice that produced OWL is open for hire, and the field products it grew out of are still shipping.
Custom software development
You bring the domain and the users; we build the toolkit around them — the data formats they live in, the steps they repeat daily, the way results have to look. Prototype fast, extend as you grow.
Mapping, survey and field hardware
Map Pro for handheld 3D mapping, GNSS and LiDAR workflows, calibration, and the remote and testing solutions that go with them.
Modules and licensing
Over a hundred optional modules — AR, Office interchange, model libraries, installer framework — licensed for your team, with enterprise terms and an on-premise OWL Server.
Trusted in the field
Teams around the world build, map, measure and now work on NDEVR every day.
Own it. Work in it. Live in it.
Walk through the demo, start on the free tier, and move up when your work needs the room — or take the whole thing home and run it on your own hardware.
