The Companion
A certification school’s manuals, turned into a teacher’s daily tool.
A library, a class builder, a live session timer and a plan students take home. Works offline on a phone.
Open the prototypeWe build the whole thing.
Brands, websites, apps, memberships, AI systems, automations, and the occasional unusual idea.
We’re Nina Moore and Jordi Amat, and Astral Studio is our independent studio. Nina leads creative direction; Jordi leads product and technology. You work with us directly, from the first conversation to the thing running in the world.
Build it the usual way, and you’d hire:
- a brand strategist
- a creative director
- a copywriter
- a designer
- a front-end developer
- a back-end developer
- someone who “does AI”
- someone to connect it all
- and a weekly meeting
Or us.
Two people, one studio. Nina leads what people see, read and feel. Jordi leads what has to work behind it. Nothing gets lost in between, because we plan it at the same table.
What we build.
Hire one of us or both. Most projects end up needing a bit of each.
Brand
Nina leadsWho you are, what you say and how it looks: identity, voice and messaging, settled before anything gets built.
Websites
Both of usFast, bilingual when you need it, and built to turn visitors into enquiries.
Memberships
Both of usCourses, circles and members’ areas people come back to, with the payments and emails that keep them running.
Products
Both of usFrom the first decision to people paying for it: accounts, payments, and the loop that brings people back.
Apps
Jordi leadsiPhone, Android and the web, from one codebase when that’s the sensible choice.
AI systems
Jordi leadsAssistants and agents grounded in your own material, with a person approving what matters.
See Enrolment deskInternal tools
Jordi leadsThe tools your team lives in all day, built to replace the spreadsheet rather than sit beside it.
See The CompanionAutomations
Jordi leadsThe tools you already pay for, made to talk to each other, so the copying stops.
Unusual ideas
Both of usThe idea that doesn’t fit a category yet. If it sounds a bit strange, we’re interested.
Don’t take our word for it.
Two working prototypes with fictional content. Open one and click around.
Enrolment desk
Every enquiry, from first message to enrolled.
One queue for forms, email and chat. Follow-ups drafted on time, and a person approves each one before it goes.
Open the demoMost client work lives inside other organisations’ operations and stays theirs. Jordi’s longer engineering record, with enterprise systems, high-growth start-ups and two founding-engineer roles, is on jordiamat.com.
Who we are.
Nina Moore
Creative Director
Nina leads brand, messaging and creative direction: what you say, how it looks, and how it feels to find you, join, buy or book.
She runs her own practice, with coaching and workshops for women, creatives and practitioners, so she knows from the inside the people many of our clients serve.
Jordi Amat
Product & Systems Architect
Jordi leads product, software and AI: the apps, platforms and systems that have to work behind what people see.
13+ years building production software: enterprise systems in London, high-growth start-ups and two founding-engineer roles. He makes the technical decisions and builds the thing.
No account managers and no junior team you never meet: you talk to the two people doing the work. We work from Mexico with clients in the UK, Spain and Latin America, in English and Spanish, and in French with Nina.
Modern AI tools make our delivery faster. We still own every decision, the quality, and the result.

What it costs.
Start small. Every price is fixed and agreed before any work starts, in US dollars.
- You own the code, always.
- Each price says what it includes, in writing.
- Third-party costs, like hosting and subscriptions, are separate.
How it starts
Write to us, or ask for a $350 working session. A few honest lines about what you need are enough.
We reply within two working days, then talk for thirty minutes about your project, not about us.
If there’s something worth doing, you get a one-page proposal: what you’ll have, the dates and one fixed price. A deposit starts the work; the rest is due at handover.
Book a 30-minute call
We take on a small number of projects at a time.
Questions people ask.
- Do I own the code?
- Yes, always.
- Do I have to hire both of you?
- No. Hire Nina for brand and messaging, Jordi for an app or an AI system, or both of us for the whole thing.
- I’m not technical. Is that a problem?
- No. You describe what you want to exist, or what isn’t working, and we translate.
- How fast can we start?
- Usually within two weeks.
- Do you use AI to build?
- Yes, to move faster. We make the decisions, review what ships, and we’re accountable for the result.
- Which languages do you work in?
- English and Spanish, both of us. French with Nina, and Catalan with Jordi.
- How do partnerships work?
- They start at $1,500 a month for a small block of reserved time. More time costs more, and we agree how much up front, with priorities and a delivery rhythm. Larger initiatives are scoped separately.
- What if we can’t pay it all up front?
- Start smaller, with a working session or a first stage, or spread a project over up to three monthly payments. Tell us your budget and we’ll shape the scope to fit it.
- What do you need from me to start?
- A few honest lines about what you want to build or what isn’t working. If you have documents, screenshots or a current site, send those too.
- What if it’s not a fit?
- We’ll tell you on the first call.
