You’re sending your code to someone you don’t know
That’s a big deal. Your prototype might be the most important thing you’ve built so far. Of course you want to know who you’re dealing with.
Jasper. founder LaunchStudio
“AI lets me build and test ideas in days. But every time, I hit the same wall: backend, databases, integrations. Too many founders are stuck at that exact point, with products the world needs but that never launch. That’s why I partnered with Manifera and built LaunchStudio: to change that.”
Jasper is an entrepreneur himself and knows the frustration of the AI Launch Gap firsthand. He builds products in Lovable and Cursor, and kept hitting the same technical barriers. LaunchStudio is the service he needed himself.
Manifera. the team behind the code
LaunchStudio is the AI-launch unit of Manifera. a Dutch software company that has been building production software for 11+ years. The team consists of senior developers. No juniors learning on your project. Developers who work daily with the code AI tools produce.
Why a separate brand?
Manifera builds software for enterprise. LaunchStudio is specifically for AI-native founders. Different audience, different process, different pricing model. But the same quality, the same security, and the same reliability behind it.
Manifera has been building custom software for enterprise clients since 2014. Vision systems, IoT dashboards, data platforms. 160+ projects for organizations like Vodafone, TNO and MO Batteries.
In 2024, we noticed more and more founders coming with AI prototypes asking: “Can you get this live?” The need was there, but the traditional agency model (discovery, wireframes, sprints, €15,000+ projects) was overkill. The frontend already existed. it was only the foundation that was missing.
LaunchStudio was born as a specialized service: only the part AI tools can’t do. No unnecessary phases, no inflated quotes. And pricing that fits a solo founder, not a corporate budget.
