01
Define
Lock problem, ICP, wedge, and the fixed outcome before craft starts.
Program desk
Build what's next.
Metal Cookie is a fixed-scope product studio for founders. Claim a seat, lock the wedge, and run Define → Design → Build → Ship from one program desk.
Prototypes for validation · 30–60 day sprints
Delivery spine
Four phases. One wedge.
02
Design
Shape the workflow surfaces and system so the product is ready to show.
03
Build
Guide implementation of one constrained web path end to end.
04
Ship
Harden launch readiness and put the wedge in front of real users.
Who it's for
Non-technical solo founders with a sharp idea and a weak product path.
Metal Cookie is not open-ended studio hours. Each seat is one founder, one constrained product wedge, and one defined delivery window — from positioning through a shippable web MVP.
