What “mizuiro” means

mizuiro (水色) is a Japanese word that translates literally as “water colour” - 水 (mizu, water) and 色 (iro, colour). It’s the name for a pale, light blue: the colour of clear, shallow water on a bright day, or of an open sky reflected in it. Not the deep blue of the ocean - the gentle, calm blue of water sitting under a blue sky.

We chose it because that’s the feeling we want the tool to have: calm, clear, and quietly out of the way while you look after the people who count on you.

Say it like: mee-zoo-ee-roh - four short, even syllables (mi-zu-i-ro).

A note on this site

mizuiro is genuinely a product about not having to remember everything. These docs follow the same idea: short, specific, easy to come back to. Nobody learns it all in one sitting and that’s fine.
