While I am super-excited about our new tech startup, my experience with Launchpeer as a resource for that has been very discouraging.
Launchpeer insisted on getting 100% up-front to build the prototype for our startup. They set the expectation of having a prototype built in 4-6 weeks. It's been more than 8 weeks since we initiated the build with them, which now will not happen because of the reasons stated below:
Their agreement states that "Our Creative Team will start by creating workflow diagrams and wireframes" Launchpeer never created any workflow diagrams and wireframes for us. Instead, my team and I had to provide diagrams and wireframes at my expense.
Their agreement also speaks to technical documentation: "We start this early, mapping out User Stories and System Requirements into our project management tool and export those into a PDF for you so you know exactly what your product roadmap is, how your app should be built, and what technical specifications will go into the development of it." Similarly, I and my team had to map out the user story that Launchpeer did not provide. And we never received any technical specifications from them specific to our product.
On branding, the agreement states "Our Creative Team will come up with your initial branding, such as color palette, logo, and style guide, so when development starts we know exactly how to incorporate that into your product." Again, we did not receive any initial branding from Launchpeer, in spite of having provided a branding guide to them.
The agreement on the Interactive Prototype: "With all the wireframes complete, tech documentation done, and branding polished, our product managers and designers will begin designing the User Interface of your application using a combination of Sketch, Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator. " Again, we did not receive what was promised. . . . no User Interface design whatsoever.
The only thing we have received is a list of features in a Microsoft Word Document from which the content came from the extensive documentation that we had provided to Launchpeer.
In addition to not honoring the contract, I was made aware that Launchpeer approached a member of my launch team for another project, which is direct violation of the Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreement section of the NDA agreement we have with them.
Upon learning about the breach of contract at the beginning of December 2018, I lost all remaining trust in Launchpeer and cancelled the prototype build. They have yet to refund any money in spite of my repeated requests.
Wantrepreneurs beware, Launchpeer is the real deal.
Launchpeer has been an incredible company to work with, so let's start there.
I've been working with them to build my startup for the last few months.
I think it would be helpful to start from the beginning, for those of you who aren't sure if you should work with them.
First, if you're looking for someone else to build your own company for you, don't work with them; although their work and guidance will help you on the way, it's still on YOU to put in the work.
Second, if you're looking for someone to blow smoke and tell you what you want to hear, instead of what you need to hear, then go elsewhere. Jake and team are incredibly honest and have always called me out on my assumptions or missteps and that has 100% attributed to my success so far.
When I started working with Launchpeer I had a good idea of what I wanted to work on. Jake spent over an hour and a half on a call with me before I paid them a dime just helping me work through the idea to see if it was a good fit and had what it needed to succeed.
Here's the kicker; he didn't sell me on anything. Honestly I was a little surprised but respected that he knew I just wasn't ready yet.
Well fast forward a couple months and doing what Jake recommended I had hundreds of beta signups and was ready to build my app.
So I contacted Launchpeer again and we set up a Kickoff to begin work on the prototype for my app.
I spent the next 6 weeks working with a ton of the team there. I was incredibly impressed by especially Rebecca and Gabriel, both of whom took my crazy ideas in my head and put them into a design and prototype that has attributed directly to...
- 3 investor offers (I'm halfway through closing my seed round)
- 12 letters of intent signed from major brands
- My app is about halfway through being built by my tech cofounder
Now you'd think that after all this work being complete that Launchpeer would move on, but they're still helping me with a ton of stuff. It seems like they really value long term relationships with customers even if they don't really need to (they don't take equity from startups or anything). I've had multiple calls with Jake to talk through things like what marketing strategy I should have, weird negotation questions with investors, he even helped connect me with my first investor which obviously got the ball rolling on the other investors.
Anyway, all this to say, if you're on the fence about working with Launchpeer, don't be.
Because of the format of the programs and services they have, I have had a chance to work with many other entrepreneurs who they are working with as well. I can tell you the ones who don't get results are usually the ones who don't like someone telling them what they should be doing, challenging their assumptions, or who expect all the work to be done for them. At the end of the day it's your business. Launchpeer will help you build it, but they can't build it for you.
Not a good start to a working relationship. We were scheduled for a consultation from 1.30pm to 2.00pm.
Waited until 1.59pm for the call. So I spent the last minute writing this review.
I would highly recommend researching their background before you sign an NDA and disclose any IP.
We will take our project elsewhere.
