Five Hour Sprint
Finish one valuable piece of work in one focused five-hour window. Leave with it built, tested, documented, and ready to use.
What can fit: a working tool, a first real version of a product, or one clearly-scoped improvement. All inside one five-hour window.
Who this is for
- A small business owner with one project that keeps sliding to next week.
- A founder who knows exactly what they need built but not how to get it built.
- A team with a real deadline and one blocker standing in front of it.
What can get finished
- ✓A working piece of software: a tool, a page, an automation, a fix to something broken.
- ✓A first real version of a product idea, running and usable, not a mockup.
- ✓One clearly-scoped improvement to something that already exists.
What's included
- ✓A short intake conversation before the window opens, to lock the one deliverable and what done means.
- ✓Five focused hours of the owner's own work, start to finish, on that one deliverable.
- ✓Testing before it's called finished. The checks run, the thing is used, not just written.
- ✓Plain documentation of what was built and how to use it.
- ✓A short written record of the result at the end of the window.
What's excluded
- ·Ongoing maintenance or support after the window ends.
- ·Open-ended scope. The deliverable is fixed before the clock starts.
- ·Design or product decisions that need a stakeholder meeting mid-sprint.
- ·Anything that cannot realistically finish in five hours. That gets scoped down first, honestly, before you book.
What you bring
- One deliverable, described as clearly as you can manage. The intake call sharpens it, it doesn't invent it.
- Access to whatever the work needs: an account, a repository, a document, a person to ask.
- Five hours of availability for questions, even if you are not watching the whole time.
