We don’t freelance.
We build products and operate them.

Musubi Media is a full-stack engineering studio in Honolulu. From PCB design to multi-tenant SaaS to a POS-connected ad network — we build the systems Hawaii’s local businesses actually run on.

Honolulu, Hawaii · Since 2014

A Hawaii studio that builds real things.

We’re an engineering studio in Honolulu — building software, hardware, and brands, and operating many of them ourselves in the karaoke bars and restaurants we run.

Our specialty is finding the friction in how a business actually runs — and turning it into something automated, integrated, and quiet. The kind of system that just works while you focus on the customer.

We work in English and 한국어. We pick up the phone.

What we do

Five disciplines, one studio.

Each capability is a real shipped product — not a service line on a deck. We take systems from the first sketch to the version running in production on Saturday night.

01 Apps

App Development

iOS, Android, web — built for daily operations.

We build native and web apps that are used every day in busy restaurants, bars, and stores. Reliable at 11pm on a Saturday with the kitchen ticket printer screaming.

Shipped
Inventory Master mobile app — staff phones become inventory counters across 6+ stores.
iOS · Android React Native · Native Tablet POS
02 Software

Software / SaaS

Full business platforms, not features.

Multi-tenant SaaS systems with auth, real-time data, AI, and POS integrations. We design the architecture, write the code, and run it in production.

Shipped
Aloha Smart System — Next.js + Postgres + Claude Vision + Clover/Zorder webhooks. Live in Honolulu.

03 Hardware

Hardware Engineering

From PCB to packaging — we ship real boxes.

Few studios in Hawaii take a product from circuit board to retail box. We have. Smart multimedia karaoke player KHD-1000 — designed, manufactured, and sold under our own brand since 2014.

Web & Branding

Sites that match the system behind them.

Business websites, identity systems, social presence. We design and build everything in-house — including this site you are looking at right now, and the brand it sits inside.

How we work

We start from the operator’s side of the counter. Anthony runs the businesses we build for — karaoke, then food court, now Soul Chicken. The systems work because we use them ourselves first.

Selected work · Since 2014

Real businesses. Real systems. Running today.

Since 2014 · Honolulu

From operator, to operator.

KHD-1000 display

Musubi Media started by running karaoke venues in Hawaii. The players we could buy didn’t fit how Korean bars actually operate. So we engineered our own — from PCB to retail box.

Then we ran a Korean food court. A chicken restaurant. A bar. Each operation taught us something the customer side never could: what breaks at 11pm, what staff actually use, what the owner needs to see at 7am.

Today we apply that operator discipline to everything we build — apps, SaaS, hardware, networks, brands. Not because it’s a methodology. Because we’re still the ones using it on Saturday night.
