Ondemandly - Clear your engineering backlog without hiring.

by
Async engineering subscription for solo founders and small teams. You drop tickets on a board; we ship the code — one item at a time, every 48–72 hours. Senior judgment at AI-speed, no slop. Stack: Next.js, TypeScript, Node, Postgres, Tailwind, Stripe, Auth.js, Resend. No meetings, no Slack, no legacy rescue. Two ways in: a 10-ticket pack or a monthly cycle. Pause anytime — unused days carry over. Bring the backlog → we ship.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Alvaro, the solo engineer behind Ondemandly. Origin story: I'd spent months tinkering with AI — building agent workflows, orchestrating tools, watching how fast I could ship when the tooling pulled its weight. Then I watched a video about the guy who founded Designjoy (the one-person design subscription). It clicked instantly: a productized engineering service, async by default, with AI as the speed multiplier. So I built it. Ondemandly is engineering on a monthly subscription. You drop tickets on a board. I ship them — one at a time, every 48–72 hours. Senior judgment at AI-speed, no slop. The boundaries are the product: • Async only — no standups, no Slack, no Zoom • Modern stack only (Next.js, TypeScript, Node, Postgres, Tailwind, Stripe, Auth.js) • No legacy rescue, no bespoke design from scratch • Pause anytime; unused days carry over Why not just hire an engineer? Hiring is 3–6 months to fill, 60 days to leave, and your problem in 6 months may not be the problem you hired for. Ondemandly is the same senior judgment without the headcount — pause when the backlog clears, resume when it fills back up. No recruiter. No severance. No awkward 1:1s. Two ways in: a 10-ticket pack to try it, or a monthly cycle for ongoing work. Would love feedback from founders frustrated by the agency model or by trying to hire a senior engineer for backlog work — especially folks who already know what they want shipped and just need someone to clear it. Bring the backlog. I'll ship.
