You do. Custom work is delivered as your repo (private or public, your choice) with docs and an audit report. Our open-source tools stay Apache-2.0.

FastPress Labs · AI-assisted software studio

The AI studio for founders who need it shipped.

Q: What does 'AI-assisted' actually mean?

We use AI tools to draft code, copy and research fast. Plans, decisions and quality control are human. You get the reasoning, the source links and the code — no black boxes.

Q: How much does a project cost?

Starting points: launch audit from $150, fix sprint from $750, product or agent build from $1,500, care plan from $100/month. Every engagement gets a written scope and a fixed quote before any money moves.

Q: How fast can you start?

A reply within one business day, a scoped proposal for small work within 2-3 days, and most fix sprints or landing pages shipped inside 1-2 weeks.

Q: Will you sign an NDA?

Yes. Private repos and NDA are both fine. Public, open-source work is the default because it makes our proof verifiable, but it is never required.

Q: What if I am not happy?

Cancel any time before the first paid week starts for a full refund of the upfront half. No inventing case studies, no lock-in, no dark-pattern contracts.

Strategy, agents, automations, launch pages, audits — a small studio that plans it, builds it and launches it in weeks. Every engagement scoped in writing, fixed price, code you own.
