Jusi – platform for rapid launch of website and app development

Hi! My name is Konstantin, and I am the CEO and founder of Jusi. Today, I want to share with you our journey and experience in developing a tool aimed at solving the problem of interaction between clients seeking website/app development and developers. My extensive experience in IT, both from the client and the service provider perspective, was a key factor in exploring the identified problem, the solution to which is offered by Jusi. 160 interviews with both clients and developers serve as confirmation. If you've dealt with custom development, you'll understand my perspective. From the client's side, there's a significant investment of time and resources in finding a suitable developer. On the developer's side, there's a substantial investment in team resources for the initial interaction with the client, understanding their needs and vision for the product. Additionally, there's the initial assessment of workload and project cost. It's truly a massive drain on resources. And that's where Jusi comes in. Just last week, we released the beta version of our product and are currently gathering user feedback. What we're receiving is invaluable: the idea is great, and users are eager to see more functionality implemented. Currently, we have features such as creating functional specifications through user stories, user distribution across features, and preliminary estimation of workload and project costs. We are now refining the existing functionality and determining, based on feedback, the features for the future release of Jusi. We move fast – we started in October 2023 and brought the product to market in January 2024. So, the next updates are just around the corner. Today, we're the full-time bootstrapping team of four. In February, we plan to establish a company in the USA/Europe to address potential future legal issues. We see Jusi as a significant step in the field of custom software development that will fundamentally change current approaches. I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on the product. Thank you for your time. Warm regards, Kostya
