LiveThe public voting record of Congress, with alerts. Enter a ZIP, follow your representative and senators, and hear each time they vote, with the official bill summary. Free on the App Store; web version for everyone else.
John Hubert LLC is a small independent studio of developers. This is where our projects live as they grow from idea to something you can install. Try what's ready, see what's next, and read the guides we write along the way.
Before you vote, see how they voted.Open Chambers is live and free: every member of Congress and every roll call, from the official record, with no account and nothing tracked.

Live · free · iPhone and web
How the people who represent you in Congress actually vote. Enter your ZIP code and the app finds your representative and both senators; follow them and you get a notification each time one of them casts a vote, with the outcome and a one-line official summary of the bill.
Free, for iPhone. The web version has everything except notifications and works on any phone. How it works →
Ready to try · prototype
A game for kids aged 6 and up about the tiny helpers inside them: which vitamins are buddies, which need space, and what foods bring them along. And for grown-ups, the same foods and recipes as a companion app for planning real meals. Works fully offline and collects nothing, by design.
Now accepting testers
Private video rooms for up to ten people. A host rents a room with its own link; guests tap the link and are in, no download, no account. Rooms keep shared notes between sessions, can ask the room a question for a show of hands, and a Language room shows live captions as people speak, translated into each listener's language. Nothing is recorded and nothing is sold.
Every project moves through the same stages: concept, prototype, testing, live.
The public voting record of Congress, with alerts. Enter a ZIP, follow your representative and senators, and hear each time they vote, with the official bill summary. Free on the App Store; web version for everyone else.
Offline-first app about vitamins. A kids' game with ten characters and badges to earn, and a grown-up view with 141 foods, 34 recipes, and a build-your-own recipe helper. No accounts, no tracking.
Private video rooms you rent, not a platform that takes a cut. Guests join with a link and no account; notes persist with the room; a Language room captions and translates as people speak. Built for tutors and small groups.
A visualization-first way to learn university math, from trigonometry through calculus and linear algebra to the math behind physics. Every idea taught by interacting with the picture.
A privacy-first way to meet people nearby. Phones find each other over Bluetooth, prove what they have in common without revealing anything else, and show a profile only when both people say yes. Rotating anonymous credentials, mutual consent, and tiered sharing for groups and contacts.
Things we learned while building, written up for the next person.
Who is behind this site.
John Hubert LLC is an independent software studio. We build small, focused applications, with a particular interest in tools for learning and in software that respects the people who use it: our apps work offline where they can, collect nothing they don't need, and never sell data.
Current work includes Open Chambers, the voting record of Congress with alerts when your representatives vote; Vitamin Village, a nutrition game for children with a companion app for parents; Cove, private video rooms for tutors and small groups, with live captions and translation; and visual-math, a visualization-first approach to university mathematics. Everything here moves through the same stages, from concept to prototype to testing to live, and we say plainly which stage each project is at.
