We run our own product, LocalLeads

No technical co-founder? We’ll build the product with you.

You have the customers and the problem, and maybe a prototype that breaks once real users arrive. We work as your product team from the first version to launch, and after it.

Your code is yours as each phase is paid. Pay in cash, or partly in equity. Written reply in 2 working days.

Freight brokers re-type the same load into three tools. We have customers waiting and nobody to build it.

Etherlabz, on Thursday

Build the load board first. Leave invoicing out of version one; your pilots will not miss it.

LocalLeads is live

We run a product of our own.

LocalLeads turns Google Maps searches into lead lists for sales teams. We designed it, built it, and answer its support inbox. It is early and small, and it is where we learn what users do instead of what the spec said.

How LocalLeads works

LocalLeads results for dental clinics in Berlin, ranked by fit, with email, phone and a score for each business
A business type and a city go in. Matching businesses come back with phone numbers and websites.

Not ready to build yet? Start with design.

See your product before anyone builds it: screens to test with customers and show investors, designed by people who then write the code.

Founders usually get stuck in one of three places.

Each one is a different line into the same place: a product that holds up in front of real users.

“I need a technical co-founder.”

You have talked to customers and they want this. Hiring a CTO takes months and a real slice of the company. A freelancer will build exactly the spec you wrote, including the parts you got wrong. So the product waits while the runway shrinks.

No one to build it

What changes with usYou get a product team now. The code is documented and sits in your company’s accounts, ready for your first hire.

“It works in the demo. Real users break it.”

Lovable, Cursor or a freelancer got you to a demo fast. Then it falls over at sign-up, at payments, or at the tenth user, and you cannot tell whether the code you paid for is any good.

The demo breaks

What changes with usWe keep what works, rebuild what does not, and tell you plainly which is which.

“Every change breaks something else.”

Version one is out and users are asking for more. Feedback piles up, releases slow down, and your week goes on firefighting instead of selling.

Stuck after version one

What changes with usWe help you pick the change that matters most to your customers, and build it so the next one is easier.

The people who design your product also build it.

Design and engineering sit together, so nothing is lost in a hand-off. You bring the customers and make the calls, and we tell you when we think you are wrong.

Problems we have worked on

All work

Rekey home page: ship your app without building sign-in and billing first
Developer product

Every new app rebuilt sign-in, billing and usage limits before its first real feature.

Rekey puts accounts, subscriptions, credits and usage limits behind one API, with a panel to run them.

Two Eon Vita app screens: pairing the wristband, and the onboarding screen
Mobile app for a client

A mental-health app had to stay usable during a panic attack.

Calm screens, big targets, and nothing that asks for a decision when the person using it cannot think straight.

Email security dashboard with a large score and record details below
Security product for a client

Email security reports meant nothing to the people paying for them.

We put a score from 0 to 100 first and the raw DNS and email records one step below, so an owner and an engineer can read the same page.

What clients say

“Communication was clear, consistent, and highly responsive.”

Kristjan IdriziFounder & CEO, review on Clutch

“They offer ideas, suggest improvements, and make sure everything stays aligned with the original vision.”

Is this a fit?

Not sure? Send it anyway. If we are not the right team, we will say so and point you somewhere better when we can.

Good fit

  • You have talked to people who have this problem.
  • You can spend real time on it every week.
  • You want someone who will argue with you about scope.

Not a fit

  • You want the lowest quote on a fixed spec.
  • You need a brochure site or a logo.

Cost, equity and who owns the code

Equity, NDAs and the rest are answered on the co-build page.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the problem, so we do not publish a price. If your brief is a fit, scope, timeline and terms follow in writing.

Who owns the code?

You do. The contract assigns the code, designs and docs to your company as each phase is paid for.

Tell us about the problem.

A few paragraphs is enough. You get a written reply within 2 working days, including a plain no if we are not the right fit.
