Engineering AI that removes labor from work.
We build specialized, deterministic AI software designed to eliminate tedious cognitive grunt work—from academic research and open-web intelligence to mobility and matchmaking.
Founded to solve real cognitive bottlenecks
Founded in 2023, Last App Standing builds focused web applications that automate the most demanding aspects of modern digital work. We created Papers to eliminate manual toil from literature reviews, and launched Bolt (bolt.surf) to make open-web intelligence fast, structured, and accessible.
From Casper, Wyoming to a global user base, our software serves thousands of researchers, analysts, developers, and professionals worldwide. Our guiding philosophy is uncompromising simplicity: high-utility AI tools with zero friction.
