v0.1
Napkin
The idea. Useful in a coffee. Useless in a partner meeting.
The fundraising build · $500 · 72 hours
Don't pitch a deck. Pitch the product.
Version 0.9 is the app you put in an investor's hands. Clickable. Branded. Alive. $500. 72 hours. Built so you can raise — then we build the real thing.

Release notes for a company that doesn't exist yet.
Founders skip from napkin to 40-slide deck and call it progress. Investors have seen the deck. They haven't clicked the product.
v0.5
The deck
Twelve slides of TAM. They've seen a thousand of these this month.
v0.9 · you are here
The product
They click it. It works. The conversation changes. This offer.
v1.0
After the check
Production, users, the boring important stuff. That's a different engagement — and we want it.
In
What you walk into the room with
- One core user journey, end to end — the thing you'd demo in the room
- A live URL you can drop in a deck, a Slack, or a Zoom — in 72 hours
- Your name on it: logo, colors, copy that sounds like you
- Seeded data so the demo never dies mid-sentence
- You own the code. Repos transfer. Same rule as everything we ship
Out
What $500 is not
- App Store polish, scale, or real payments
- Every role, every edge case, every setting screen
- A 3-month product engagement disguised as $500
- The v1.0 you run a company on — that's after you raise, priced like it
Four ways to show up underfunded.
Only one of them lets someone click the thing.
| Click it? | Time | Cost | Raises? | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pitch deck | No | Weeks of writing | $0–5k | Maybe, if they already believe |
| Figma | Sort of | Weeks of design | $0–8k | Looks real until they ask to try it |
| Typical MVP studio | Yes | 8–16 weeks | $15–80k | Yes, if you already have the money |
| v0.9 | Yes | 72 hours | $500 | That's what it's for |
We already ship the real thing.
v0.9 is the door. The studio behind it builds production products — the ones on the work page.
“Doers Studio did an exceptional job. I came up with a vibe-coded, messy app, it worked sometimes and sometimes it didn't. Ahsan and team helped me rebuild it, and it turned out super clean and scalable. The team is super quick, responsible, and knows their stuff. Still working with them. 100% recommended.”
Ibrahim · Founder & CEO · Audiva AI
“We needed something that could take messy credit report data and automatically generate Metro 2 dispute letters, end to end, plus dashboards our affiliates could actually use. Ahsan and team nailed it. Clean build, scalable, and they got the compliance-heavy stuff right without us having to hand-hold. Would work with them again.”
James · Founder · Credified
“I needed a directory app for entrepreneurs with direct WhatsApp connection built in for local e-commerce. Doers Studio delivered exactly what I was looking for. Solid execution, fast and clean app. And the speed, amazing. Truly recommend them.”
Founder · CIDE Market
How a $500 build actually works
01
File the brief
What the app is, the one thing a user can do, when you need it.
02
We say yes or no
Within one business day. If $500 can't cover it, we say so — and what would.
03
We ship a URL
You pay $500. We deliver the live demo in 72 hours. You walk into the meeting with evidence.
Straight answers
It's a real, clickable web app on a URL — not Figma, not slides. It is not production. No scale, no App Store, no live payments. Investors can use it. You should not run a company on it.
Step 01
File the brief
File the brief. We'll reply within one business day — including if v0.9 is the wrong shape for what you need.
We take a handful of these at a time. If the queue is full, you hear it from us — not a fake countdown.
