Question 1

What is Digital Sprint?

Accepted Answer

The build studio of The Good Studio. It builds the systems a small product company runs on: getting paid, getting the product to the customer, and keeping the books clean. Three fixed-scope builds for software businesses, three for makers, each done in weeks. The monthly close carries on through Recouped.

Question 2

Who is it for?

Accepted Answer

Two kinds of company. Bootstrapped software and digital-product businesses, one to ten people, on Stripe, Paddle or Lemon Squeezy, with no finance hire. And small hardware companies that have funded, or are about to, on Kickstarter, Indiegogo or preorders. Same problems underneath, different shape.

Question 3

How do you take work?

Accepted Answer

Whole problem or nothing. Every build has a written scope, a fixed price, and a defined end. There is no hourly work. If the problem is smaller than a build, we say so and point you somewhere cheaper.

Question 4

What does a build cost?

Accepted Answer

The ops build and the fulfilment build start at $2,500. Site to product and the preorder and store build start at $5,000. The money stack starts at $6,000. Those are estimates. The price in your written scope is fixed before any work starts, and that number is the number you pay.

Question 5

Can I trust what it does with my money?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and you can check it. Anything that adds, matches, or decides about money is ordinary code that does the same thing every time, not a model guessing. AI only reads documents and explains results. Every step is logged, so you can see what ran and why.

Question 6

What happens after the build?

Accepted Answer

The build has a defined end, and you own what was built. Most builds leave something recurring behind: a monthly close, a reconciliation, a payout check. That part carries on through Recouped, a separate product of The Good Studio, if you want it. Most do.

Question 7

We're software, not hardware.

Accepted Answer

Then you want the software builds, and probably the money stack. Start with the free check on Recouped.

Question 8

We haven't launched yet.

Accepted Answer

Talk to us the week you fund. Before that, the free check on Recouped is the right size.

Question 9

We use a pledge manager already.

Accepted Answer

Good. The build ties it to the store and the books; it doesn't replace it.

Question 10

Do you do the Shopify store itself?

Accepted Answer

Yes, inside the preorder and store build, when it's built to sell the product and take preorders properly. Not as a design project on its own.
