FoundStep

FoundStep is a project management tool built for indie developers who start projects but never ship them. It guides you through a structured lifecycle: validate your idea with a 7-step questionnaire, make a build-or-kill decision, lock your scope, and ship. Every time you unlock scope to add something, you write a reason that is permanently logged. You can cut features without unlocking, but adding requires accountability. The built-in AI watches your workspace and suggests one next action at a time based on deadlines, todo completion, and scope changes. When you ship, your project goes to your Harbor, a public portfolio page with your shipped projects.
