Thank you so much for this note and for all the work your team put into this project. It truly was such a great experience working together.

We are really happy with how the prototype turned out and especially grateful for the extra backend improvements your team made. Having a more stable and scalable foundation is huge for us as we head into launch, and it did not go unnoticed.


Thank you again for being such a thoughtful and proactive partner throughout this process. We are really excited about what is ahead.


Grateful, Lana

Hi Team - After weeks of effort, we have officially launched the www.brandtuit.com website!  I want to give a special shout-out to Paola Lozano Vanegas for her tireless efforts in building a beautiful website that conveys our values so well.  Thanks also to Sebastian Ocampo for helping navigate the plumbing and getting the site posted tonight.  I have also posted to LinkedIn with an official "We are open for business" message, so let's go fishing!



We have a great concept, a real market need, and an evolving tool in Zena that can deliver value.  Thanks to everyone on the team for getting us to this point. I'm very excited, very grateful, and looking forward to building from here.

I cannot recommend this enough. It has truly been a godsend, providing everything I didn’t even realize I needed. The entire experience has been overwhelmingly positive, exceeding every expectation I had. I am deeply grateful for everything I’ve received so far, and I am so committed to this mission that I want to contribute my own work pro bono to help it grow. It’s a wonderful thing to be a part of.

Hi guys, I was reviewing the full Terik and Tess flow — first off, thanks for the effort to get everything done by EOY, really appreciated and very exsitng to see it live.


Overall, the flow makes total sense. We’ll likely need to come up with a new “recipe” for it, and there are a few UI tweaks and small functional changes we should work through.

Thanks, everyone, for the hard work that went into this first beta client.  We have now officially released our first Zena report to a client.  We will meet with him on Monday to review his candid feedback on what is working well and what needs improvement.



This was a significant step, so we should take a moment to commemorate and celebrate it.  We will have two more beta tests in the new year, so the work continues. As we turn the calendar, I wanted to take a moment to appreciate this team.  I wish everyone a fantastic start to 2026, and I hope we can continue to build on this promising start.

THE IMPACT WE DELIVER

Early-stage startups don’t fail for lack of vision—Founders run out of time.

That’s why we built the Startup Starter Kit (SSK): a battle-tested foundation with 24 core features—auth, billing, dashboards, AI tools, analytics, and more—so you can move from idea to first customer faster than ever. Unlike cookie-cutter templates, the SSK is handcrafted by a team that works beside you, using clean, modular code and cloud-native tools that scale as you grow.

 

What you ship with us isn’t throwaway—it’s investor-ready, production-grade software built to evolve.

By partnering with Melt, you:

Accelerate your time to market: Prototypes in 4 weeks, MVPs in 3–5 months.

Reduce cost and risk: Reusable frameworks + fractional CTO leadership avoid expensive rewrites.

Stay focused on the big picture: We handle the dev stack so you can refine your value proposition, build relationships, and raise capital.

Launch investor‑ready products: SSK includes features like dashboards, out-of-the-box integrations (auth, billing, analytics, Artificial Intelligence), and gets you investor-ready with sharp teams who move fast and care deeply.

40+ STARTUPS TRUST US 
From launching new ideas to expanding your team’s reach—we’re your reliable tech partner.

THE ACCELERATOR PROGRAM

Is a production-ready SaaS foundation built for AI-native products—agents, tools, and Model Context Protocols (MCPs). With 24 essential features like auth, billing, analytics, and OpenAI-powered AI tooling, SSK helps early-stage founders launch faster, cut costs, and stay focused on core innovation. Built for scale and flexibility, it’s the smartest way to ship AI-driven SaaS.

​

We create initial versions (prototypes) in 2 months and working products (MVPs) in 3 to 5 months.

Are you ready to turn your idea into a useful product in four weeks?

MeltStudio Building Stories

Hear directly from founders who went through the program.

Lana Ashby Rowder

LookingGlass

Before working with Melt, the team had a partial proof of concept but was stuck in a critical stage: without users, they couldn’t raise capital and without a complete product, they couldn’t attract users.

Through the accelerator program, they focused on building the key features needed to launch, move faster, and get to market. Within weeks, they were able to deploy a working mobile app and start onboarding their first users.

If you’re building a startup and feel stuck between:
“not ready to launch” and “need users to grow”
This story will feel very familiar.

LegacyLink is not just another alumni platform; it is the first of its kind, designed specifically for graduates looking to reconnect with their roots. Roy emphasizes that the platform serves a dual purpose: helping the new generation of graduates find opportunities and enabling them to give back to their alma mater in a meaningful way.

Roy, LegacyLink CEO, states, "New generation of students, they want new opportunities and a better way to give back to their institutions." This insight highlights a growing trend of graduates seeking more transparent ways to engage with their schools, thus creating a need for such a platform.

Bryan A. Nelson

FitAds

In the world of fitness and advertising, finding innovative solutions can be a challenge.

In a recent podcast interview, entrepreneur Bryan A. Nelson shared his vision for a startup that aims to transform how businesses promote themselves while encouraging healthier lifestyles within the community. This blog post explores that vision, highlighting the key insights shared during the conversation.

The Problem: Advertising in the Restaurant Industry

Bryan A. Nelson identifies a significant gap in the advertising strategies available to restaurants. Traditional methods, such as handing out flyers, often fall short of attracting foot traffic. Nelson’s startup seeks to change that by creating a system where fitness enthusiasts can engage in activities that advertise local businesses.

Nelson outlines specific milestones to measure the success of his startup. His initial goal is to attract at least 50 active participants. By leveraging a strong network of trainers, he aims to create a marketplace that benefits both fitness enthusiasts and local businesses.

Melt’s best interest is to grow your business as quickly and as vigorously as possible. Let's build something remarkable together!

FAST TODAY,
WITHOUT CHAOS TOMORROW.
