About
About
Mumu Labo is a small products studio that builds tools to grow the value someone has already built — a little larger each time it is passed on.
I plan, build, run, and sell my own products end to end. The focus is the Japanese business practices, regulations, and language that overseas apps tend to overlook, and the goal is tools that take the busywork out of everyday work and stay useful for years. I also take on custom development — apps, internal tools, and workflow automation.
The name “Mumu” comes from elephants passing a heart — the value — trunk to trunk, from parent to child to grandchild. Look closely at the logo and you will see it spelled out: the parent’s legs are the “M”, its trunk the “u”, the calf’s legs the “m”, and its tail the final “u”. Each time the value is handed on, it grows a little larger. That is what I want these tools to do: take something good that has been built up, grow it, and pass it to the next generation. Value, paid forward.
High-payout affiliate partners wanted
Propose a product that would be easy to recommend in your niche — if it looks promising, I build it. As long as the users you refer keep their subscription, the commission keeps paying, for life. The rate is high because the partnership is direct, with no affiliate network taking a cut.
Founder
Mai Sato, the founder, is a software engineer who can take a product end to end on her own — front end, back end, and infrastructure. On a trust bank’s business reporting platform she handled everything from detailed design to dozens of APIs and tests and the client-facing role, delivering a nine-month project in about five months and cutting page transitions from around 20 seconds to under one. She has built an e-commerce site and a range of APIs, so she knows the ins and outs of online retail. Earlier, in electrical design for nuclear power plant projects, she read English technical documents and turned them into design work — the kind of precision demanded where safety is on the line. Originally a translation major, with experience in transcription, subtitling, and translation QA, and a native Japanese speaker, she picks up the real problem behind each request and stays with you from planning through design, development, and operation. Turning “I don’t know who to ask” into “this is someone I can trust.”
