Independent app studio

Apps worth opening
every day.

Brands Halo LLC is an independent app studio. We design, build, and ship our own products — starting with RISN, a Bible app built around the first few minutes of the morning.

Our apps

What we're building

RISN app icon

RISN

Start your day in Scripture.

A Bible app built around a morning ritual rather than a feed. RISN opens on a short routine — a verse, a devotional, and a moment to pray — and gets out of the way. Scripture is free in the app and always will be.

Rise

A short morning routine: a verse, a devotional, and prayer. Done in a couple of minutes.

Bible

Read, Scroll, or Listen. Your place carries across all three, so you can switch without losing your spot.

Explore

Topics, reading plans, and study content for whatever season you're in.

Practice

Quizzes and memory work to help what you read actually stay with you.

Chat

Ask questions about the passage in front of you and get a grounded answer.

The Shield

Keeps the apps you choose closed until you've finished your morning routine. Scripture before scroll.

How we build

Commitments we hold ourselves to

These aren't marketing lines. They're constraints we designed the product around, and they cost us revenue on purpose.

Scripture is never paywalled

The Bible is free in RISN, permanently. We don't put a subscription in front of Scripture or prayer — not at signup, and not in a hard moment.

The text can't be taken away

RISN hosts its Bible translations itself rather than renting them through a third-party API, so no vendor can switch off the passage you're reading.

Nobody is priced out

If the subscription is out of reach, ask and we'll give it to you. No means test, no paperwork, no explanation required.
