Turn ideas
into tools.
AC3 Labs builds software for problems that don't have an off-the-shelf answer — the apps, interfaces, and automation that connect them, built for people who actually have to use them every day.
Apps
Purpose-built software for the exact problem in front of us — not a bloated platform bent halfway to fit.
Design
Interfaces people actually want to open. Clean, considered, and out of the way of the work itself.
Automation
The tedious parts, handled — syncing, alerting, and moving data so nobody has to babysit it.
If the tool you need doesn't exist, we build it.
AC3 Labs starts from a real problem, not a product idea. A file share that keeps dropping connections. A small business running on tools that were never quite built for how it actually works. The pattern is always the same: something in daily use is unreliable or missing, so we build the tool that should have existed already.
That means every release gets treated like it matters, because it does — tested before it ships, documented so it can be maintained, and deployed the way production software should be, not left as a prototype. No unnecessary complexity, no dependency on the internet just to move a file between two computers in the same room.
Featured build
The first release out of AC3 Labs — born from a simple, familiar annoyance: file sharing between your own machines shouldn't be this unreliable.
LANHub
A private, self-hosted file explorer for your own LAN. Browse, move, copy, rename, and search across every computer you own from a single browser tab — with drag-and-drop between machines that copies straight from one to the other, video previews for almost any format, and one-click updates from the browser. Built to replace unreliable SMB shares for good — and now small enough to run on an old laptop.
The Repo Depot
Find software on GitHub, install it on any machine on your network, and keep it updated, from one web app. Docker Compose apps, release downloads or source builds on Linux and Windows, with update alerts, auto-update on your schedule, and one-click roll back.
ReactGrab
A free Windows app for reaction and commentary creators. Paste TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts links, press Download, and get MP4s that open straight in Premiere, DaVinci Resolve or OBS, plus a ready-to-paste list crediting every creator. One installer, nothing else to set up.
Alexa Control
A free Touch Portal plugin that puts Alexa on your buttons: switch smart home devices, step a Roku TV's volume, or send any phrase to an Echo with one tap. Early days — the product page lists exactly what's been tested on real hardware and what hasn't.
