Our Story

Studio!Kah is a creative technology studio dedicated to building smart, educational, and engaging digital experiences.

What started in 2011 as a dorm-room project in New York City —when software engineer and educator Al Montoro created Kah!me, a simple URL shortener— has grown into a multidisciplinary studio that blends innovation, design, and education.

Now based in Austin, Texas, Studio!Kah specializes in developing custom web and mobile applications that empower teachers, students, and lifelong learners. From interactive classroom tools to e-learning platforms, our work is designed to be accessible, adaptable, and impactful.

In 2017, we launched Textivities, a comprehensive e-learning platform for language teachers and students. It brought together years of educational technology expertise and remains one of our proudest achievements. A reflection of our commitment to combining technology with purpose.

At Studio!Kah, we continue to create solutions that inspire learning, simplify technology, and bring ideas to life.

Our Vision

At Studio!Kah, accessibility isn't an afterthought. It's a core principle. We believe everyone should have equal access to the knowledge and opportunities the Internet provides.

We build with standards, inclusivity, and integrity in mind—testing our code with tools like the W3C HTML Validator and WebAIM's WAVE to ensure our websites are clean, compliant, and barrier-free.

Above all, our work is human-centered. Every website and application we create is thoughtfully designed and built by people, for people. We prioritize real human experiences, aiming to create connections and understanding through technology.

Our goal is simple: to create digital experiences that work for everyone.
