The End of 'Good Enough': Unlocking the $300 Bespoke App Economy

The software market has a massive, invisible gap.

At the top, you have Enterprises paying millions for custom software. In the middle, you have SMBs forcing their unique businesses into generic, "one-size-fits-all" SaaS products because that’s all they can afford.

But what about the local bakery? The independent mechanic? The boutique gym? They are running on spreadsheets and paper because bespoke software costs $30,000, and they only have $300.

Priset changes the math. And when you change the math, you change the market.

The "Cost of Curiosity" Calculation​

Traditionally, building a custom inventory app for a local florist was financial suicide for a developer.

  • Old Way: 2 weeks of work x $100/hr = $8,000 cost. You can't sell that to a florist.
  • The Priset Way: 2 hours of work (AI-scaffolded, human-guided) x $100/hr = $200 cost.

Suddenly, you can sell a fully tailored, white-labeled app for $500. The florist gets software that fits their business like a glove, and you make a healthy margin.

The "Hyper-Local" Digital Agency​

We hear the fears about AI replacing developers. We see a different future—a "Star Trek" future of abundance.

Priset enables a new career path: The Hyper-Local Consultant.

Instead of fighting for a generic ticket in a Jira queue at a massive tech co, a developer can now walk down their local high street and solve real problems for their neighbors. This isn't just about code; it's about breaking the "SaaS Tax" where small businesses pay monthly subscriptions for software that does 100 things they don't need and misses the one thing they do.

"Untapped Market" App Ideas (That You Can Build Today)​


We built a DIY assistance application in 18 minutes (plus few hours to "beautify" it) during the Gemini Hackathon (see the video above). Here is what else you could build for the "forgotten market":

1. The "Tradie" Job Tracker​

  • The Client: Local plumbers, electricians, landscapers.
  • The Problem: They use expensive field service software that is too complex, or they use crumpled notebooks.
  • The Bespoke Solution: A simple mobile app that accepts a photo of the job site, logs the GPS location, and generates a PDF invoice on the spot using their specific pricing logic.
  • Priset Workflow: Screenshot their paper invoice → Priset generates the UI → Connect to Gemini for OCR.

2. The "Boutique" Gym Class Manager​

  • The Client: Independent yoga studios or CrossFit boxes.
  • The Problem: Mindbody and other tools take a huge cut and own the customer data.
  • The Bespoke Solution: A white-label booking app that keeps customer data on-device or in the owner's private cloud. No middleman fees.
  • Priset Workflow: Scaffold a scheduling grid → Integrate Stripe API → Deploy.

3. The "Farm-to-Table" Inventory​

  • The Client: Local suppliers and restaurants.
  • The Problem: WhatsApp messages and chaos.
  • The Bespoke Solution: A shared inventory list where the farmer updates availability in real-time, and the chef clicks to order.
  • Priset Workflow: Database scaffolding for inventory → Real-time sync logic → Simple dual-interface (Supplier View / Buyer View).

Don't Just Code. Solve.​

The era of the "100x Developer" isn't just about writing code faster for your boss. It's about having the power to be your own boss.

There is a world of problems out there that were previously "too expensive" to solve. Go solve them.
