02

We define exactly what gets built

1 week

Fixed scope, fixed timeline, fixed price. You approve every detail before we write a single line of code.

We build it — you see progress daily

Weeks 2–5

Daily async updates. Weekly live demos with working software you can click through. You see every PR we merge.

It goes live — you own everything

MVP Sprint

Production MVP.
Six weeks.
Fixed price.

For startup founders who need to move fast. We scope, design, build, and ship a real product — not a prototype — in six weeks. You walk away with a deployed app, source code, and infrastructure you own.

  • Design + full build
  • Authentication & payments
  • Production infra + monitoring
  • Source code + infra you own
  • 30 days of post-launch fixes
$4,999·6 weeks·1 client at a time

We run 2 Sprints at a time. We accept 1 of every 5 applications.

01

Week 1

Shape the work

We define what to build, what to cut, and lock the scope. Fixed price agreed before a single line of code is written.

02

Weeks 2-5

Build & ship daily

Daily updates. Weekly live demos. You watch the product come together in real time - no surprises at the end.

03

Week 6

Launch & hand off

Live in production. You get the source code, servers, and documentation. The product is completely yours.

How we move fast

AI writes the boilerplate.
We write the architecture.

We use AI coding tools to build 2–3× faster than a traditional agency. That speed saving goes directly to you — same quality, lower price, faster launch.

Our engineers own every architectural decision and review every line before it ships. You can read every PR we merge — there is no black box.

AI handles

  • Scaffolding
  • Boilerplate
  • Test generation
  • Refactoring

Engineers own

  • Architecture
  • Security
  • Trade-offs
  • Every PR

From the founders

What founders say after we ship.

All quotes are anonymised — we never use client names without written consent. References available on request; we will make introductions before you sign anything.

“We had 3 months of runway left. Zerokai scoped our MVP in week 1 and shipped it in 5 weeks. We closed our seed round 6 weeks after launch.”

— Founder, B2B SaaS

“I have no technical background. They ran the entire product spec process — I just kept saying yes or no. We launched in 6 weeks and had paying users in week 7.”

— Founder, Consumer Mobile

“I had been burned by two agencies before. These guys sent me a PR link every single day. I could see exactly what was being built. That alone was worth the price.”

— Founder, Marketplace

“The scoping call was 30 minutes. They told me exactly what would and wouldn't be in scope, what it would cost, and when it would ship. No agency has ever done that before.”

— Founder, Fintech
