Design and engineering for non-technical founders. A clear first release, built around a real problem.
Start at step one, or join where you are. Each step ends with something you can use, even if you stop there.
The screens, the features for version one and a build plan, so you know what you’re making and what it costs.
Name, look and agreed screens, as a clickable prototype you can tap through on your own phone.
Version one for iPhone and Android, built with reviewable milestones and submission support for both stores.
Fixes, platform updates and small improvements, with measurement agreed around what the app needs.
An agreed measurement plan can bring growth, retention, stability, speed and public feedback into one view. This sample shows how that could look.
Sample dashboard with illustrative data. Not a real client.
We collect what people already say about your idea and your competitors on Reddit and in app-store reviews, score it for sentiment, group it into themes, and turn it into your feature list.
“Finally a habit app that doesn’t guilt-trip me. The weekly recap is the reason I stayed.”
“Every tracker wants a subscription before I’ve even logged a single day. Instant delete.”
“Is there anything like this that syncs between my phone and my partner’s?”
“Streak freezes are underrated. Missing one day shouldn’t reset three months.”
Free first week before any paywall · Streak freezes · Partner sync in version two
Reddit threads via the official API, plus App Store and Google Play reviews for you and your competitors.
Every mention gets a sentiment score from −1 to +1, checked by a person on a sample so the model stays honest.
Mentions cluster into themes, ranked by how often they come up and how strongly people feel.
The top themes become features, copy and pricing choices in your blueprint or next Friday build.
Illustrative posts and scores. Collection follows each platform’s terms and uses public data only.
An agreed weekly review rhythm, with a usable build and a short note written for you.
