What stage of startup is Zade best for?
Zade is built for pre-seed and seed stage startups that need to validate their ideas, launch a lean MVP, and attract early users or investors. We’re ideal for founders who have identified a clear problem but need proof of market demand, a fast path to product-market fit, and a fundraising story that resonates.
Do I need a technical co-founder to start with Zade?
Do I need a technical co-founder to start with Zade?
No — you don’t need a technical co-founder to work with Zade. Our team covers the product strategy, UX/UI design, and full-stack development you’d normally expect from a founding tech partner. This means you can focus on customers, traction, and fundraising while we handle the build, validation, and technical decisions.
Which industries do you specialize in, and do you work with AI startups?
Which industries do you specialize in, and do you work with AI startups?
We specialize in SaaS, FinTech, PropTech, and marketplace platforms — but we also work closely with AI-driven startups, including those building LLM-based copilots, RAG systems, or AI-enabled SaaS products. If your solution involves data, automation, or customer-facing AI, we can help validate the market, design the right MVP, and make your product investor-ready.
What makes Zade different from a typical dev agency or freelancer network?
What makes Zade different from a typical dev agency or freelancer network?
Unlike traditional agencies or freelance marketplaces, Zade is a venture-building partner. We don’t just write code — we:
- Run Market Validation Sprints to prove demand before building.
- Deliver investor-ready MVPs in 4–6 months, not years.
- Provide growth playbooks, pitch reviews, and fundraising prep alongside development.
Our focus is traction and funding outcomes, not just output. That’s why 100+ founders in the EU and US trust Zade as their startup acceleration partner.
Can you work with my existing prototype or codebase?
Can you work with my existing prototype or codebase?
Yes. If you already have a prototype, wireframes, or partial codebase, we can audit and adapt it into a market-ready MVP. We’ll validate what’s working, cut what isn’t, and ensure the product meets scalability, usability, and investor standards. Our process de-risks the build so you don’t waste time or capital.
How do you help with fundraising materials and investor readiness?
How do you help with fundraising materials and investor readiness?
We prepare you for investors at every stage. This includes:
- Pitch review & deck refinement — tightening narrative, polishing visuals, and rehearsing tough Q&A.
- Clear financial & technical roadmaps — cost breakdowns, build timelines, and go/no-go decisions.
- Traction stories — validated market demand, early customer funnels, and clear proof points.
By the time you pitch, you’ll have both a validated product concept and a compelling fundraising narrative that stands out to angels, accelerators, and VCs.
