Focused tools

Each one makes a part of something. Pick the one that matches what you're doing right now — or say what you want to make and the right one gets suggested.


Start

Help me figure out what I'm making.

Idea Engine

One decision: the version of the idea you're going with, and the first thing to do about it.

Use this toYou have three versions of the same idea and keep going in circles.

“A card game for my kids” comes out as four versions, scored, and you leave with one.

Make

Help me create part of it — software, a design, a song, a story, a fix.

Design Shop

A design package and an Etsy listing draft you can copy straight into a listing.

Use this toYou want to make something people can buy — a print, a shirt, a sticker, a mug.

One product idea becomes five directions, scored, and an Etsy listing you can paste in.

Build Engine

Beta

A step-by-step prompt to paste into your coding assistant, plus what the first version includes and how it fits together.

Use this toYou know what you want to make and need the actual first build.

A site that tracks your kids' chores becomes an MVP scope and a prompt you paste into your coding tool.

Fix Engine

Beta

A careful repair prompt that looks before it changes anything, plus checks that the rest still works.

Use this toSomething you already made broke, and you do not want to break the rest of it.

“The login stopped working” becomes a repair plan that inspects before it edits.

Game Engine

Beta

A shaped game idea you can take further. Publishing it as a playable game is owner-only for now.

Use this toYou want to make a puzzle world and play it.

MineDoku was made this way and is live on OpenDoku.

How To Anything

Beta

Everything to film and post one fix you know: a script, a shot list, the YouTube title and description, and social posts. You film it and press publish.

Use this toYou already know how to fix something and want to teach it.

One repair you have done becomes a script, a shot list and a YouTube listing.

Music Engine

Beta

One next step at a time toward a finished track, from a first idea or a song you've started. The audio comes from your own music software, not this page.

Use this toYou have words, a melody in your head, a voice memo, or nothing at all.

A hummed chorus becomes a song project with a real arrangement to record.

Story Partner

Owner only

A private novel workspace: memories, characters, scenes and a chapter outline, kept in the author's browser.

Use this toYou want to turn things that actually happened into a book.

Memories go in in any order; characters, scenes and a chapter outline come out.

Runs on the owner's machine

Plan

Help me work through it — dates, people, a finish line.

Plan Engine

Beta

A real-world plan: the steps, who does what, what has to happen first, the risks, and the next action.

Use this toThe thing you are organising is not software — an event, a season, a move.

A fundraiser becomes phases, owners, dates and the next concrete action.

Finish

Help me get it out into the world.

Grow Engine

Beta

One idea for growing, the smallest test that would prove it, and how to read the result.

Use this toIt is live and quiet, and you want to move one real number.

Forty visitors a week becomes one hypothesis and the smallest test that proves it.

Launch Engine

Beta

A launch package: what isn't ready yet, the checks to run, the message to send, and one number to watch.

Use this toIt works on your screen and now real people have to see it.

A finished site becomes a readiness check, a blocker list and one number to watch.

Sell Engine

Beta

An offer someone could actually buy: who it's for, what it is, a starting price to test, and the first test to run.

Use this toYou want money to change hands and do not know what you are actually selling.

“I could do this for people” becomes a customer, an offer, a price and a first test.

Not sure which one

You do not have to pick. Say what you want to make and the right engine is offered to you.

No account needed. Open any engine and your work is kept in this browser; it shows up in Your work.
