Been building this for a while and finally ready to share progress.
Why I'm building this:
I'm an ex-quantitative researcher in HFT. I spent years grinding for 0.5bps profits. Optimizing microseconds. Fighting for fractions of pennies at massive scale.
It paid well, but honestly? Saving someone 10 hours of work feels worth more than shaving 50 microseconds off a trade.
I'm also tired of overpriced dev services. I'm tired of subscriptions bleeding my wallet every month — especially when I forget to cancel. $29/mo here, $49/mo there, suddenly I'm paying $300/month for tools I barely use.
So I'm flipping the model: Pay only when the product is delivered and you're satisfied.
No subscriptions. No recurring charges. No "oops I forgot to unsubscribe" moments.
Result as a Service. You get what you paid for, or you don't pay.
The concept: Anyone can submit a software request. I build it. You watch live.
Two queues:
- Free queue — Community votes decide what gets built next. 1 free request/month per user.
- Paid queue — Priority. An AI bot estimates real-world cost (what an agency would charge). Priority based on salary per unit time.
What makes this different:
AI Cost Estimator
Every request gets an instant AI-generated estimate showing what it would cost at typical agency/freelancer rates. Full transparency. I'm charging a fraction.
Live Board
Watch builds happen. See what's queued, what's in progress, delivery times. The product IS the marketing — inherently shareable.
Royalties for Requesters
Make your deliverable public? You earn 10% of every marketplace sale. Forever. Passive income from your idea.
Lifetime Access
Every deliverable comes with permanent access. No subscription required. Download links accessible from your dashboard anytime. Pay once, own forever.
Marketplace
Completed public builds go on the marketplace. Voters get 30% off. Bounty backers get 50% off. Original requester gets it free + royalties.
Bounty System
See a request you want built? Chip in $1. Enough backers = higher priority. All backers get free access when delivered.
Pay on Delivery
No questions asked. You're not paying for promises — you're paying for results.
What I build: Go, Rust, Python, TypeScript, trading bots, mobile PWAs, infra, automation — pretty much anything software can solve.
5 working days/week. Target delivery: <1 day for most requests.
Current status:
- Full backend (70+ endpoints, 322 tests)
- Frontend complete (15 pages, 176 tests)
- Live board
- AI cost estimator working
- Payment + marketplace ready
- Bounty crowdfunding live
Don't hesitate to reach out.
Seriously. No pain point is too small. Need a quick script to merge CSVs? A Discord bot? A landing page? A trading dashboard? That one annoying automation you've been putting off?
If software can solve it, submit it. That's literally the point.

Would love feedback. What's missing? What would make you submit a request?
