02After launch
- Hosting, monitoring and backups
- Bug fixes and security updates
- New features as customers ask
- Customer support tooling
- Cost of third-party services you build on
Plan for ongoing cost, not just the build. A monthly plan for hosting care and improvements is common.
03A sensible path
- Define who the product is for and the one job it must do
- Build a small first release with sign-up, the core job and basic admin
- Add billing when customers are ready to pay
- Grow features from real use, not guesses
We designed, built and still run EnvironDesk and Green PG, so we plan for the day after launch.
