FDE as a subscription

Hey guys I'm founder of Anymore, is your Forward Deployed Engineering team on demand as a subscription.

If you have any complex AI product, and your hiring is behind of your sales, then let us sit and talk.

We will implement, and develop for your product a system to get efficient implementation without us, if you set up your internal FDE team.

We cover manufacturing, construction, back office, hospitality, finance, healthcare.

I need contact from decision making level, you can ask for every automation you need as a workflow, app, software

Hey im starting a startup: Forward Deployed Engineering as a subscription.

And need connections from decision making level.

For one recommendation you can ask one automation.

It is good deal?

Every possible automation.

Are startups using external FDE teams while hiring?

I’ve been looking at FDE roles across YC/startup job boards and noticed a pattern: many companies seem to need engineers who can both write production code and work directly with customers.

But that combination seems hard to hire for. Some teams need customer implementations, integrations, workflow audits, internal tools, data cleanup, and pilot support now — while hiring a full-time FDE can take months.

I’m curious how other startups handle this:

  • Do founders/engineers do the FDE work themselves until hiring catches up?
  • Do you use solutions engineers / professional services / contractors?
  • Would an external embedded FDE pod make sense, or does this need to stay internal?
  • Where does it usually break: customer context, code quality, trust/security, or handoff?

I’m exploring this space and would love to hear what people are seeing.

What do you think about this?

Simple messaging app, but it's not a message, more like post. Every post you write goes with a brid transported. And it goes through n people to get real response to you're message.

Hello everyone, I might be see the wolrd different but I have to prove that I'm seeing not seeing it completely false.

Code is solved... Cursor, Claude Code, GLM...

And it was about 10-30% of average company (10K worker's)

That means: we can automate other ~ 70% of processes inside the company.

We been working on this 2 years, 8 iterations.

And now we have working product.

Our goal is mechanical engineering, then construction automations.

But now back office operations you can automate like weekly kpis, reports, quality management, skill management, more and more.

For example 40 min KPIs went into one click,

And 4 hours reporting went into 20 min.

We are 3 brothers, 2 mechanical engineers, and one construction engineer.

We think every process can be done just by prompting, but with correct instruments.

So our product is Alexandria From desktop only: https://alexandria.anymore.dev/

An agentic workspace

And we are team Anymore.

Why we will winn? Because our automation is on law level, and so fast that nobody will go back to manual work again.

This are my ideas.. Wich I will realize but most of them needs investment (financial fundament), and I'm searching for this one problem wich will bring me first money.

First of all, I'm 35... from childhood what I remember is, I wanted always build something better, then what I got as a gift from parents. I always destroyed this toy to molekulare layer (metaphor for components layer) and tried modify it somehow.

Just this thing is, I never stopped to try to build something better, then what products I daily use.

I always did it in my head, while my brother was good in chess, chess was not visual for me, so the process in my head to develope better product was enough with visuals in my head.

In 2019 while covid time, I understood that all my ideas are just a fantasy of an immature child.

I was a mechanical engineering student (late student: no money, and no study). Like a hamster loop. Just to study, not enough money.

And I decided to start a startup, I invested my last money to hire an fullstack guy.

And I understood, that you will never be able to transfer your idea 1:1 how is in your head to someone.

So had to go to Creation Monastery: a long way, to master of all skills, thats needed to be able to build everything what ever you want to build.

So I head to learn, how to build something, from all perspectives. First UI/UX, because I was a user, and the User interface and user experience where nearest entry point for me.

I understood that good UI has 2 meanings: 1 from a business perspective, second from a user perspective.

And your goal ist to find a golden middle between them.

So i was about for 3 years UI/UXler.

Thet I started to learn coding, but if you are Ui/uxler you understand of all terminology of frontend development. So you have to just learn how to build the code side.

It was pretty easy, I always thought that: you can be programmer, just if you are some Olympide winner of whole galaxy. (But I can say it just after I did this way back, when I was learning it was pretty hard))

And from day one while every one was learning how to write code for fronted, I was learning how to build frontend, and how to build backend, how to deploy, what is realtime, what are databases, why sql and why noSql...

After 6 moths of studying code I've got a offer to be a intern. After that i started write frontend.

And I decided to finish my mechanical engineering study like plan B should always be there.

While studying I've got a job as a fullstack developer, to build complex dashboard for one huge company. This was my first time where I could prove myself.

After 1 year I've got the full-time job at this company.

I'm automating the manual processes in the company, like weekly kpis, instead of 40 min copy pasting, just with one click you get report.

Or digital twin of your factory, to see all the processes what are working now. And control from one place.

For 3 years I mastered my fullstack skills.

Last 2 years I did over 100 pet projects, in after work time. And last 2 years real product's, but from users perspective. And never looked from a business perspective. What I understood 2 months ago, while launching a cursor for engineering. Like agentic workspace where you can to work with agents, but everything accept code) like phyton code but just for science.

Nobody wants to have it, because nobody understands it, because I cannot explain with simple words, so I don't know how to sell...

And I started now, to learn how to sell.

First thing what I understood is, find one problem, and this problem will have one user. So you don't have to run after all users.

And it's cheaper and esear to get one user.

Second, do not sell a product, sell the ROI of this product.

What business get from your product, if they use them.

So decided to sell automation... but the problem is under automation everyone understands AI automation like zapier, n8n or something like that. And not old-school automation.

So i have to find the solution for this problem (working on)

And here are my ideas:

The idea of Ikea is so genius, and they are not around whole world. I would love to copy them to other countries(needs money as fuck, and also trust of investor, you should be at least maker with one exit behind).. i can build whole factory processes to get any furniture. But now money for factory:x.

Restaurants, But bring the Spain vibe inside. And delicious food.

Drones for large scale transportation.

If you didn't understood, then sorry, I was always bad in writing. And English is not my strength.

I automated workflows that are now used globally. That made me quit my job.

I'm a field automation engineer in the semiconductor industry.

Over the last few years I kept improving the daily work of our service organization. Small changes that saved hours every week eventually became standard across multiple locations.

What surprised me most was that once something works, people stop noticing it. It simply becomes "the way things are done."

That made me realize I enjoy solving operational problems more than climbing the corporate ladder, so I decided to go independent.

I'm curious:

What's the most repetitive part of your daily field service work that you wish someone would eliminate?

2 years development, 5 pivots in the last 2 months, 5K MRR

What learned is, start directly with Customer acquisition. Just after you talked to your customers, you will know how you product should look like! Do not spend time for nothing.

So throw my product, and ended up with industrial automation for operational backoffice as a subscription.

And I took this business model from Designjoy. And it worked!

Ist das ein gutes Businessmodell?

Für manchen ist es viel zu heiß, und für anderen ist das ein Businessmodell!
Was denkt ihr über die Idee? Soll ich live gehen?
