Get the hobby tool built that you have searched for and never found

The Build Studio at CEOism builds the tool for your hobby that does not exist yet, the one you have searched for over years and never found, at a price you name. Every serious hobbyist hits this wall: the fermentation log you want, the model railway inventory, the birding life-list that works your way, the tool for scoring homebrew or tracking fountain pen inks. The market is too small for a company to serve, but it is exactly the right size for us. You know the hobby better than any product manager ever will, so you spec it by describing how you actually practice, and we build it precisely to that. The studio has shipped 47 live apps; the strange, specific ones are our favorites.

The 60-second version

You have searched for this tool for years. It does not exist. It could.

We build it for you: the thing you have searched for and never found, built for you.

Tell us what it is worth to you. ceoism.com/studio.

What you receive

  • The tool, built exactly to how you practice your hobby
  • Live on your own domain, yours alone or shared with your community
  • Your data importable from the spreadsheets you have been suffering with
  • Working on the device you actually use, in the field or at the bench
  • Source code and full ownership, so it can never be discontinued

How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us what you need

    One email. Describe the thing in your own words, plain language is perfect, and say the number that feels fair to you.

  2. 2

    We build, you watch it become real

    We reply honestly with what your number gets, then we build. You see the live thing take shape, not a slide about it.

  3. 3

    You name the price

    The price you set is the price. When it ships, it is live on a real domain and it is yours: code, keys, everything.

Honest questions

Is it worth building software for an audience of one?
If the one is you and you have wanted it for years, yes. Name a number that feels fair for finally having it, and we tell you honestly what that number builds. Many great tools started as an audience of one.
Could my hobby community use it too?
Easily, and that choice is yours. We can build it personal-first with a multi-user door left open, so if your club or forum wants in later, opening up is a step rather than a rebuild.
I have years of messy spreadsheet data. Can it come along?
Yes, bring it all. Importing your existing records is part of the build, because a hobby tool without your history in it never quite feels like yours.

Name your price on this.

Tell us what you need and the number that feels fair. We answer honestly with what that number gets.
