# LaunchGuide

> The missing layer between idea and builder

LaunchGuide is the planning layer between a product idea and AI coding builders. It turns plain-English concepts into PRDs, app flow, tech stack docs, security guidelines, implementation tasks, and build-ready prompt packs for Cursor, Claude, Lovable, and Bolt — so non-technical founders ship with less rework.

LaunchGuide does not replace AI builders. It produces the specs and prompts those tools need. Pricing: $29/month Pro with a 7-day free trial (no credit card). App: https://app.launchguide.dev
