If you're a founder without a CTO, you know this scenario. A vendor pitches you one stack. Your engineer-friend recommends another. Your advisor has a third opinion. You are the one who has to choose, with real money and real time on the line.

Assembly is the product we are building for that moment.

What it does

You tell Assembly about one specific initiative you are trying to figure out. A migration, a build, a rebuild, a "should we even do this." Your tech lead and advisor weigh in on their parts. You get a recommendation.

The recommendation arrives as a live, interactive page, built around a stack configurator that shows you the whole picture.

Five layers. The specific tools we recommend for your situation. A summary bar showing what it costs per month and how long it takes to deliver.

Then you click any layer to see the alternatives.

Swap a tool and the cost and timeline above recalculate. You can see what cheaper looks like, what faster looks like, what the trade-off actually is in numbers rather than in someone's opinion. Revert to the recommendation whenever you want.

Tech decisions are never made alone, so Assembly is built to be shared. Your CTO-friend, your advisor, your co-founder can all open the same page, see the same numbers, and have one conversation instead of three.

Who we are building this for

Assembly is for founders who do not have a CTO yet, but have a tech decision in front of them that is too important to outsource to a vendor pitch.

If you have ever sat in a meeting where three different people gave you three different answers to "should we build this on Supabase or Firebase," Assembly is for you.

We are opening it to a small first group soon. No date yet. We will only invite people in when the product is genuinely ready.
