Owl was originally developed by Adalid Claure ([mailto:aclaure@gmail.com aclaure@gmail.com]). The program was originally released a closed sourced project in 2014. Many of the icons were created by Robert Burnham ([mailto:burntham77@gmail.com burntham77@gmail.com]) and the original vBulletin encryptor plugin was written by Joe DiBiasi ([mailto:joedibiasi@gmail.com joedibiasi@gmail.com]).
