Service 100 of 100

Commission the thing we have not thought of, at your price

The Build Studio at CEOism builds the thing this list does not name: you describe it, you name the price, and we tell you honestly what that number gets. The list ends at one hundred, our range does not. This entry exists because the best commissions we receive are the ones no category predicted: the strange tool, the tribute, the experiment, the thing you have carried around for years assuming nobody would ever build it. Two people, one engine, 47 live apps and 11 gifted companies of proof that we ship what we say. Write to hello@ceoism.com with three things: what you want to exist, the number that feels fair, and when you need it. If we cannot do it well, we say so. If we can, it gets built.

The 60-second version

The list ends at one hundred. Our range does not.

We build it for you: the list ends at 100, our range does not, so name the thing and name the price.

Name your price and we start. ceoism.com/studio.

What you receive

  • The thing you described, built and live
  • An honest first reply: can we do this well, and what your number gets
  • A real product on a real domain, not a mockup
  • Source code and full ownership, always
  • One team from first email to live link

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 there anything you will not build?
Yes: anything designed to deceive or harm people, and anything outside our honest competence. In both cases we say so in the first reply instead of taking the money and delivering badly.
My idea sounds ridiculous. Should I still write?
Especially then. The gifted companies in our portfolio sounded ridiculous as one-line descriptions too. The first email costs you nothing, and the reply will be honest either way.
How do I even price something that has never existed?
Say the number that feels fair to you, that is the entire mechanic. We come back with what that number honestly buys, from a working slice to the full thing, and you decide from there.

Name your price on this.

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

Not looking to hire anyone? If you have the knack but never had the means, CEOism will hand you a company instead.

Service 100 · three takes

The films we shoot for this one

These are the scripts we actually film, published openly. Plain text is spoken out loud. Anything in the marked panels is for the camera or the screen behind us and is never read aloud. Three takes of the same service, so we can pick the one that fits where the film is going. The first is open below. Open the other two to read them.

Take one · the empathy cutFilm 100 · 25 to 40 seconds

It is not on the list

Opens inside the worry this service answers, and takes its time. Made for someone who already has this problem in mind, so it fits this page and it fits an audience that already knows us.

Direction · do not readOpen on camera. Last one, keep it loose.

You went through the whole list and your thing was not on it. It is stranger than anything there. A tribute, an experiment, a tool for something almost nobody does.

Good. Those are the best commissions we get.

Something we have not thought of. The list ends at 100. Our range does not.

Write to us with what you want to exist and the number that feels fair. If we cannot do it well, we will say so.

Take two · the direct cutFilm 100 · 15 to 25 seconds

The list ends, the range does not

Opens on a claim or a visible result, with the offer inside the first ten seconds. Built to be shot with a screen recording playing behind you. Made for the feed and for paid placement, where nobody was looking for us.

The list ends at a hundred. You still name the price on the thing that is not on it.

The list ran out first

Names the service in the first breath instead of hiding it behind a hook, then offers to build it. It puts the barriers on the floor: you name the price, and not knowing how any of it works is our job rather than yours. It also makes the promise most people never get, that we stay with the thing until it is real. Made for someone who has been carrying this idea around for a long time and needs to hear that somebody will actually take it on.

Read this script

Something we have not thought of. The hundredth entry, here because the list ran out before the range did.

Whatever it is, we would look at it properly and answer honestly.

You name the thing and you name the price. Strange is welcome.

Direction · do not readHold, then the last line.

If we can do it well, we build it, and we see it through to a real domain.

Write when you want it to exist.
