BUILT FOR NON-TECHNICAL FOUNDERS

The tools that could 10x your business used to require investors to get them.
Not anymore.

You already know exactly what you'd build. Now you can actually build it.

cloudgroup builds custom software for non-technical founders — in two weeks, at a fixed price, with code you own.

Built for the founder who already knows what they'd build.

You're good at what you do. Your business is real. And you've had a vision — a proprietary tool, a custom platform, an internal system that would let you scale in a way no off-the-shelf software ever could. You just always assumed getting there meant raising capital, finding a tech co-founder, or waiting a year and spending half a million dollars.

It doesn't anymore.

This is also for the founder who knows AI is changing everything and wants to actually get ahead of it — not just use it for emails, but build something with it. Something that compounds. Something that's yours.

“I know exactly what I'd build if I could.”

You've had the vision for years. A proprietary tool, a custom platform, a system built around the way your business actually works. It never felt within reach. It is now.

“The next level always looked like investors or headcount.”

Every path to scale ran through a raise, a tech hire, or both. That's not the only path anymore.

“I've been sitting on a service tier I can't deliver yet.”

A premium offer, a self-serve model, a new revenue stream — the idea is there. The infrastructure underneath it isn't. Yet.

“I'm ready to stop running my business on tools that were never built for it.”

Sheets, Notion, a CRM, three SaaS tools that don't talk to each other. You've made it work. You're done making it work.

IN HER WORDS · SCOUT'S AGENCY
“I went into this thinking small. I expected this to take eight months and cost six hundred to eight hundred thousand dollars. Six weeks later I'm sitting here and it exists.

Founder, Scout's Agency
“It doesn't feel like software we're adapting to. It feels like infrastructure that was built for us.”
“The week we launched, I reached out to multiple people in my network. I didn't wait to be asked.”
“What used to take eight to twelve hours per client now takes about an hour.”

WHY CLOUDGROUP

An engineer and product manager. Two decades at companies like Amazon. Building for you.

cloudgroup is what happens when a software engineer and product manager with two decades at companies like Amazon sits down to build something for you.

You're not getting a freelancer. You're not getting a template. You're getting the kind of technical and product thinking that used to live exclusively inside billion-dollar companies — applied to your business, your workflow, your vision.

Mark has spent twenty years doing two things: building software that scales, and figuring out what people actually need before they know how to ask for it. That combination — engineer and product manager — is rare. It's also exactly why clients walk away with software that feels like it was built by someone who understood their business, not just their brief.

Big-tech experience.Small-business focused.Finally in the same room.
A two-week build, demystified.
Four phases. Daily progress in your environment, not ours. You see real software by the end of week one.
DAY 1–3

Discovery + scope

We meet, agree on what to build, and lock the price. No surprises after this.

DAY 4–6

Designs + plan

Hi-fi mockups, architecture decisions, milestones with dates.

DAY 7–11

Build

Daily progress in your environment. You can use the software while we're still building it.

DAY 12–14

Ship + handoff

You own the code, the infrastructure, the keys. We hand over everything.

ENGAGEMENT TIERS

Fixed price. Three sizes. You own the code.

No hourly billing, no scope creep, no nine-month timelines. Pick a size, agree on what we're building, and we ship in two-week sprints.
