About Tessel Labs

Nobody should have to be the integration layer for their own tools.

How it started

Most people run the important parts of their life and work across a patchwork: a spreadsheet here, three apps there, a notes file, a folder of bookmarks. None of it talks to anything else, so they become the glue.

Tessel started with exactly that problem. Co-founder Ezekiel was tracking his training, nutrition, meal plans and shopping across five apps and an Excel sheet. Each was good at its own lane. None of them knew the others existed. So he built the tool he actually needed: one where a hard week of training changes what you eat, what you buy and what you train next, with the reasons shown.

That idea became our first app, and the way we build everything.

Who we are

Founded in Dubai by two people who see the same problem from opposite sides.

  • Ezekiel Burton

    Co-founder & CEO

    Ezekiel is a designer and developer. He turns real problems into software: focused, connected and built to last.

  • Moses Danquah

    Co-founder & CSO

    Moses works in health and safety. He spends his days in the field, where the gaps in people’s tools are obvious to the people living with them and invisible to everyone else. He finds the problems worth solving.

Found in the field. Built in the studio.

How we work

  • Real use before release

    Every feature is used for real, for at least a week, before it ships. If it doesn’t survive daily life, it isn’t done.

  • Small and focused

    A clear roadmap, and the discipline to say no to features that don’t serve the job.

  • Clear over clever

    Things people can understand and trust, over things that only look impressive.

  • Made in Dubai, built for everywhere

    Our apps work wherever you are, built on open, worldwide data and recognised international standards. And we hire for skill, wherever it lives.
