We build AI tools that ship.
Yakka Labs is the studio behind Nyfty.ai and Backlit. We have been building software since 2012 and shipping agentic AI since 2018, before the word "agentic" caught on.
One studio. Real products in the wild.
We are not a holding company or an agency. We design, build and run our own AI products end to end.

Join the waitlist →Agentic AI, before it had a name.
In 2018 we put an AI agent on a construction worker's phone that asks the right questions, writes the safety plan, and files it. No chatbot gimmick, real work getting done. We were building agents years before the industry settled on the word. That experience is what every Yakka Labs product is built on.
You deal with the builders.
