Ember Labs — what we do
Ember Labs is two things: a software product (Ember Stories, sold by subscription) and a hands-on consulting practice for AI, technology, and software. They're related — but distinct. Scroll down to see both.
A subscription software product. You pay a monthly fee and Ember Stories does the recurring work of keeping your business visible — on-brand content, draft-first, always your approval before anything publishes.
AI content operator
Most businesses lose visibility they should be keeping — not for want of effort, but because content stalls, the right moment passes, and there's no time to post. Ember Stories reads your business, drafts on-brand content, and brings you a queue ready for one tap to approve and publish.
It's not a tool you have to drive. It's an operator that reports to you. Every batch surfaces a short queue of drafted posts — graphics and captions — all grounded in your Business Brain: your voice, your brand, your products. You approve; Buffer publishes.

Real work, real results
Every engagement is scoped, fixed-price, and delivered with zero open bugs at handover.
Custom App
A major Adelaide dance competition was running check-in and performance scheduling on paper. We replaced it with an iPad check-in app, live backstage running order, video-order capture, and offline-tolerant sync — scoped 9 June, delivered 23 June 2026. 150–180 performers a day. All issues resolved and verified before handover. Zero open bugs.

Google Review
"We could not speak more highly of Dave. He created a web based app for our company and went above and beyond. Dave's attention to detail, communication and ability is next to none. Nothing we asked was ever a hassle and Dave was so efficient and professional. Will definitely be using Dave in the future for our business IT needs." — CanDance (Rachel & Kirra) · 5 ★ Google review

Tap-to-call, professional branding, and an AI-editable CMS so the client never has to ask a developer for a content change. Here's what the client said:
"Dave set up my website to accept edits and updates via Claude AI… Dave set it all up in about an hour. He did an amazing job." — Steve · ineedtocreate.com · 5 ★ Google review
Scoped and fixed-price — you know the cost before anything starts, and we're hands-on throughout. These are not the Ember app. They're the consulting practice that runs alongside it. All enquiries go through a conversation first.
Most requested
Find the one job in your business that eats the most time and hand it off. We build a working tool — not a demo of what AI could theoretically do.
Advisory
Know exactly where technology and AI will pay off — before you spend a dollar. You get a working recommendation and a path to implement it, not a slide deck. Scoped sprint or ongoing advisory retainer.
Build & connect
The software and connections your business actually needs — fast, mobile-first, yours to keep. No mystery, no lock-in. Built from scratch or bolted onto what you already run.
If you're drawn to the app, get in touch and we'll show you what Ember would work on first in your business. If consulting feels more like the right fit, get in touch and we'll have a quick conversation to figure out the right starting point.
No credit card, no obligation — for established Australian businesses.
