A small software company in Lenexa, Kansas
Software that's on your side.
PrisFlex, for the movies and music you already own. David, to skip the ads and AI on the web. And games that teach real skills, like reading a new alphabet. No ads, and no tracking.
Our promises
No ads.
Nobody pays us to put things in front of you or your kids. We'll make our money by selling the software, games, books and toys we make. That's the whole plan.
No tracking.
No analytics, no ad networks, nothing following you around the internet. This website doesn't even use cookies.
Kids welcome, safely.
In our games, kids under 13 never get accounts of their own. A parent adds them as young players, with made-up names, no chat and nothing to buy.

Apps, tools and games. Different jobs, same promises.

Who's behind this
Manoi Studios is one person: me, Jeremy Kissell. I've worked in IT for 30 years, and I make software in Lenexa, Kansas.
When my son Jaden was born, I wanted him to grow up able to read more than one alphabet, and to have games his mom would approve of. Script Fall came first. The rest are on the way.
Games are where Manoi Studios started, but they're not the limit. It's a software company now: PrisFlex plays the library you already own on every screen, and David takes the ads and AI clutter off yours.
"Manoi" means "small dog" in Thai. It's also the name of Script Fall's hero, a puppy with a very big job.
I build the games with help from Claude, an AI made by Anthropic. Every game, song and character is original, written from scratch.
