We built a tool that builds and deploys your product with minimal prompting, so you focus on the idea, not babysitting AI.

I got tired of babysitting my AI. Half-paying attention to it at all times, answering its questions, testing the small bit it fixed, then getting back to it... all while juggling 6 other things.

So my team and I got together and basically put our CTO and CPO's brains into the product itself. We also gave it the ability to preview in a shareable URL and deploy straight from the product, instead of routing everything through GitHub or Vercel. The goal was a machine that builds the product with minimal prompting and has the whole highway to deployment built in, so us humans can focus on the idea and the marketing/sales part.

More officially, Dev Kanban is a build tool for people who have an idea but don't want to (or can't) build the whole thing themselves. You describe what you want, it makes the technical calls for you like a co-founder would, and you can run a few different versions of the same idea in parallel instead of betting everything on one. When you find the one that works, you deploy it with one button. You bring your own Claude or GPT plan, so you're paying for the platform, not marked-up AI.

The bet behind it: getting to a working demo is easy now, but getting something that actually holds up and is live in front of real people is a completely different job, and most stuff dies in that gap. Plus everyone commits to one direction and never finds out if the other one was better.

Where I need the roast:

  • Is this a real problem, or am I solving something only I care about?
  • "Run versions in parallel" and "one-button deploy," do those actually sound useful or just like features?
  • What would make you bounce immediately?

It's pre-launch. Early access is here if you want to poke at it: https://tally.so/r/QKXkEk.

But honestly the roast is more useful to me right now than signups, so let me have it.
