Giorgio Nícolas de Arruda Bertino
Giorgio Nícolas de Arruda Bertino is an individual software engineer and programming student who builds end-to-end digital solutions, including websites, web platforms, desktop applications, APIs, and AI integrations. His current flagship project, Catenary, is a local-first spatial IDE intended to help developers run and coordinate multiple AI coding agents without losing their visual workflow.

Products & Services
A native desktop spatial IDE and terminal orchestrator for AI coding agents. It combines an infinite zoomable canvas, agent-aware terminals, Monaco editor with diffs, browser panels, context wires, isolated Git worktrees, parallel branches, and Maestro Mode for recruiting and wiring agent helpers. It is local-first, requires no account, has no telemetry, and keeps code, worktrees, and API keys on the user's machine.
Market Position
Catenary positions itself as a spatial alternative to tab-heavy terminal workflows and cloud editors: instead of stacking terminals or using narrow chat sidebars, it puts agents, editors, browsers, and worktrees on an infinite canvas and connects them with visual wires. Its differentiators are local-first privacy, no account or telemetry, offline operation, agent orchestration, and integrated worktree isolation.
Founding Story
Giorgio says he started coding and kept expanding from Python scripts into many areas of software engineering. He built Catenary after AI coding agents changed how he worked but existing interfaces still forced developers to juggle overlapping terminal windows and narrow chat sidebars; the initial vision was an infinite 2D workspace with visual connections between agents, editors, terminals, and browser previews.
Business Model
Revenue Model
Freemium desktop software: a free plan is available, while Pro is sold as a one-time lifetime license. The product documentation says the user's own API keys and agent subscriptions are used; Catenary does not run or proxy the models.
Pricing Tiers
One project open at a time, two parallel tasks, and up to two Maestro helpers; canvas, terminals, editor, browser, Git, and wires are unlimited.
Lifetime license; the site states the standard price after launch is US$ 29. Unlimited simultaneously open projects, parallel tasks, and wires; up to five Maestro helpers, adjustable from 2 to 10 in settings; two activated computers.
A user-claimed, one-time seven-day Pro trial with no credit card; it starts inside the app rather than automatically at installation.
Target Markets
