LevrAge Innovation Studios
The studio that builds the first real version of your product for non-technical founders and operators.
Turn your idea into a working POC or MVP with real auth, data, hosting, and a clear path to owning your own stack.
Part incubator, part builder — for founders who want working software, not just generated code or pitch decks.
What LevrAge Innovation Studios does
LevrAge Innovation Studios helps non-technical founders go from idea to functioning software by handling the architecture, infrastructure, and first version builds that most "quick fixes" skip.
POC → MVP builds
Rapid builds you can click, test, and show to users or investors.
Focused scopes that validate the core behavior, not every feature.
Backend, hosting, and integrations
Auth, data models, API integrations, deployments, and monitoring.
Clean setups that can later be handed off to your own team or vendors.
Graduation, not dependency
Everything is built with the assumption you'll outgrow the studio.
When you're ready, your product moves into accounts you own — with a roadmap for the next team.
AI builds code. Studios build products.
AI tools are incredible accelerators, but they don't own your architecture, your uptime, or your user trust. LevrAge Innovation Studios uses AI inside a disciplined build process rather than outsourcing judgment to a prompt.
- •AI generates snippets, not coherent systems with tradeoffs.
- •Prompts don't design your data model, infra, or error paths.
- •Real users force real iteration, not one-off generations.
- •Someone has to be accountable when production breaks.
AI is part of the workflow here — never a substitute for ownership, judgment, or engineering decisions.
How we think about systems
Every MVP needs infrastructure decisions. Here's how we approach them at the studio.
Hover over each component to see why these decisions matter at MVP stage.
Studio flagships
Built using the same stack and patterns behind live SaaS products, healthcare MVPs, and infrastructure-grade experiments.
These are products built and owned in-house at LevrAge Innovation Studios, showing how the studio thinks about systems, data, and real-world use.
Network intelligence for serious operators.
A professional network intelligence platform that unifies fragmented contacts into a single view with AI-powered insights, visualizations, and filters.
What we shipped:
- • Multi-tenant SaaS-style architecture with secure auth and data separation.
- • Contact graph, tagging, and search with AI-assisted enrichment and insights.
AI + data infrastructure for operational teams.
An AI and data-driven environment focused on bringing cloud-style intelligence and automation to operational workflows.
What we shipped:
- • Core data and infra patterns to support AI-augmented workflows.
- • Deployment setup that can evolve into client-specific solutions.
Community emergency mobilizer
A health and community emergency app for emerging markets that can trigger trusted drivers, route to appropriate facilities, and coordinate response with minimal friction.
What we shipped:
- • Event-driven flow to request help and notify vetted drivers.
- • Location and destination logic oriented around local hospitals and services.
Selected client MVPs
Client work is shown with permission and focuses on execution patterns — not on exposing anyone's proprietary ideas.
The Wealth Shift
Problem:
A wealth and finance brand needed a clear online presence that could educate and convert without a complex app.
Solution:
Brand and funnel site that explains the offer, captures leads, and guides visitors into the right next step.
What we shipped:
- • Conversion-oriented marketing site with clear narrative and CTAs.
- • Lightweight infrastructure that can later plug into more advanced tools.
Alpha01 (telehealth MVP)
Problem:
A health organization needed a secure way to deliver telehealth services and manage patient interactions in a specific regional context.
Solution:
Specialized telehealth MVP with secure access, visit flows, and provider–patient communication primitives.
What we shipped:
- • Auth and role-based access for patients and providers.
- • Telehealth-ready flows that can be extended into full EHR or integrations.
PBS (Phoenix Bookkeeping)
Problem:
A bookkeeping firm needed a simple, credible web presence and light operational tooling.
Solution:
Small business MVP that communicates services and supports basic client workflows.
What we shipped:
- • Service site with structured information architecture.
- • Simple flows that can evolve into client onboarding or portals.
Labs & experiments
These are fast experiments that show how the studio explores ideas and ships quickly. They are not polished products.
Afriai
Early concepts at the intersection of African markets and AI infrastructure; used to test patterns for data, governance, and deployment in emerging ecosystems.
Refridge-X
Logistics and cold-chain experiment focused on how inventory and operations data can drive better decisions.
Patry
A shopping assistant for busy dads that turns pictures, text, voice, and links into categorized store lists to minimize time in the aisles. Lab-grade concept in active experimentation.
How engagements work
The studio runs like a focused build sprint, not an open-ended agency engagement.
Clarify the idea
Short working session to define the problem, users, constraints, and success signal.
Shape the first version
Decide what must exist in v1 and what can wait; map flows and data.
Build and host
Ship a working POC or MVP, set up backend, hosting, and minimal monitoring.
Auth, data models, API integrations, deployments, monitoring
Learn and adjust
Incorporate early feedback, fix what breaks, and refine the core loop.
Graduate the product
Move infra into accounts you own and outline options for your next build phase.
Account migration, documentation, handoff roadmap
Pricing, in ranges not tricks
Early-stage builds need clarity more than precision quotes. The studio uses simple ranges and scopes instead of open-ended hourly work.
POC Sprint
Fixed-scope, short engagement to validate a core behavior with a working prototype.
MVP Launch
Fixed-range engagement to ship a product non-technical founders can put in front of real users.
Launchpad Ops
Monthly support for teams that need short-term help running and stabilizing their first version.
Compliance-heavy, regulated, or highly sensitive builds are scoped separately.
Scope boundary: This studio is optimized for first versions. Long-term product development, scale engineering, or large teams are intentionally out of scope.
Start a build
This is for founders who are ready to move from documents and decks to something users can actually touch.
Share enough detail to understand the problem, who it's for, your timeline, and what "success" looks like for v1. If it's not a fit, you'll hear that quickly so you don't lose time.
This site was built the same way your product would be.
