A waitlist website, built from zero in about 35 hours

Designed in Figma and built by hand: a Romanian waitlist landing page with a custom-built waitlist form and lead capture, written by us.

Is this you? A brand that wants a fresh start: go from zero to live, or hand the whole build to someone who has already done it for customers in the EU and the USA.

Before

The founder did not know where to start.

He had a social platform in mind that brings travel, spirituality and self-learning together, and no idea how to start the business behind it. We took over and built it from the ground up.

What I built

A portal where members interact with the whole project

We designed the portal in Figma and built it ourselves in React, with hand-written CSS. The waitlist form and lead capture are custom-built, written by us, and a GDPR-first consent banner keeps it compliant from day one. It is hosted on Vercel.

What changed

From nothing to a live portal.

Where there was only an idea, there is now a live Romanian portal where people join the waitlist and interact with the whole project. Built from zero in about 35 hours.

This works if you

  • You are starting a business and want one person who has worked with customers in both the EU and the USA
  • You want to go from zero to live, or hand the build over completely

It is not for you if

  • You want everything done in two days
  • You expect a fortune out of it overnight
