Serverless pre-launch funnel

A pre-launch funnel engineered to keep recurring bills at zero.

Overview

Dot Fuel was designed around a pragmatic constraint: validate demand without taking on monthly software bloat. We paired a lean brand and landing page with a serverless stack and email automation.

Cost architecture

Every layer supports the zero-recurring-bill constraint.

The interface makes the operational promise visible: static delivery, serverless data, and automated follow-up without a monthly software stack.

Constraint

Built around cost discipline from day one.

The stack avoided heavy SaaS dependencies while preserving the core pre-launch needs: capture interest, store signups, and trigger follow-up email.

  • Serverless hosting
  • Managed Postgres path
  • Automated email capture
Launch

A landing page that makes the cost promise obvious.

The design keeps the zero-recurring-bill idea visible, then supports it with practical technical proof and a clean email capture path.

  • Offer-led hero
  • Waitlist conversion path
  • Brand and product framing
