Your Anti-Zombie Product Kit
by•
Stop guessing. Validate fast, stack-rank ideas, and auto-generate the investor/dev docs—then vibe-code a quick prototype.
We’ve all seen the claim: by 2028, a one-person company hits $1B. If that’s real, why are we drowning in zombie products?
My partner and I built Spark to fix the “build first, learn later” loop. Capture and rank ideas, pressure-test the market, and auto-generate the docs a developer or investor expects—so you only build what deserves to exist. Then yes, vibe-code a quick prototype from a clean prompt.
Questions, edge cases, spicy takes welcome. I’ve got a BUILDER code if you want to try it.

Hey, interesting idea!
How's the traction so far?
@nsaint that's an interesting question that has a lot for us to unpack. I am a firm believer that for people of my age group, the best way to gauge whether you will be successful is how much domain knowledge you have that leads to deep knowledge and credibility of the market. So my partner and I built Spark in phases - the first was ViRA which was just validation. We tested it in the market with a cheap ad placement. It had a couple of dozen users. Then, we received feedback that we should provide build requirements. I had that as a separate product and we decided to combine the two.
As of today, a week after launch, we have about two dozen users with two paying customers. In other words, we have a signal of product market fit. We have a case study of a real user and we are really focusing on ensuring we are delivering more value to the market than they would if they simply skipped this step. Our goal is to become the startup design studio for the next age of builders. That's what we do.
If you want to know why this is important, what are the macro trends I see that make FTE a doomed relationship, I have a book that is nearly complete and a substack Age of Agency where I release the chapters one a week.
If you, or anyone else, is interested in trying the product, we can give you three months - more than enough time to validate your current ideas.
