Enter dayzero. Think of it as a hybrid between Kickstarter and AppSumo. For Builders: Offer discounted lifetime deals (LTDs) to get early customers, validation, and cash flow before your product even fully launches. For Backers: Get in on the ground floor of innovative startups, with the ability to actually sell your LTDs later for a profit.
It is incredibly hard for early-stage startups (especially young founders) to get those crucial first users, early validation, and initial funding. We realized there was a gap. Builders need early backing to keep going, and early adopters want to support promising products from day one.
My co-founder and I (both 18, fresh out of high school) are officially launching dayzero on Product Hunt! Here is the story of why we built it, and how it helps early-stage founders get their first true supporters.
