Owners kept asking us the same thing: "What do I actually have, and what should I do with it?"
So we built the Owner's Manual.
In one week, you get six plain-language documents about your software, each reviewed and signed off by a Cloudburst engineer:
•What it's built on
•User roles and permissions
•How your data is organized
•A security review
•What needs updating
•How well it's tested
Then you get a recommended path and a firm quote for whatever comes next.
It's delivered in Cloudia, the shared workspace where you and our team get the work done, with three months of access to your code and answers to anything you ask about your software. The documents are yours, useful to any developer you ever work with.
$1,500. If you're not happy, you get your money back and keep the Manual.

I'm Zack. 53, here since 2008. Art major, holdco partner, and product builder.
Fan of good design, big ideas, and strong communities.
On the path from services > services + software.
Looking for fellow experienced entrepreneurs and operators building with AI. Let's connect!

Human FTW!
"You're right, and I was wrong earlier. There is no gateway key anywhere. Neither Supabase project has any secrets set, and the translate function has never been deployed to staging or production. It only exists in the repo."

With how hard it is to register a Twilio SMS campaign I’d expect fewer spam txts about a business line of credit

We launched a new website for @CloudburstMN! ✨
Over the last couple of years much has changed about how we work. What hasn't changed is our commitment to helping entrepreneurs scale through technology they own. Good news: there's never been a better time to build!
The site includes our Forecast tool to help you envision what's possible now.
Enter your website and see, in about a minute:
- Where you’re losing time and leads
- 3 tools we’d consider building to help
- A working AI Assistant built from your own site content
Give it a try and let me know what you think of the results. Thanks!

I love how Tesla FSD default yields for pedestrians at crosswalks. It’s more conscientious than I was 😅

I'm curious, too. Kudos to @DeRushaJ for raising a complex, emotionally charged issue and replying thoughtfully in search of solutions. This is the transparency and nuance that moves us from division into action. Great to hear from a range of voices.
