3 · Rung three. Where you own the system that builds software, not just the software.

Build your MicroSaaS in Claude. A product that charges money is the proof.

You leave with: A live MicroSaaS built in Claude with payments connected, replacing a subscription you pay for today.

Two surfaces, one system. Cowork does the thinking: the architecture, the business requirements and the handover. Claude Code does the building: the engineering, the tests and the deploy. The capstone proves it, a MicroSaaS that replaces a subscription you are paying for right now, and you leave with a working MVP, not a mockup.

How it works

Two Claude surfaces. One dev system you own.

Cowork thinks and Claude Code builds, and the operating system underneath is what carries a decision from one to the other. Six hats, one repository, one quality bar. The MicroSaaS is what proves it runs.

The build

20 assets, block by block.

20 assets in 5 weeks. Every one is a file, a connection or a running system on your own account, and you keep all of it.

  1. 01Week 1Brain

    Audit what you rent

    • A full subscription audit with seats, renewal dates and real usage
    • The worst-fit system scored against what you actually use
    • Its replacement priced: build, host and maintain
    • The savings baseline logged, so week five has something to beat

    4 of 20 assets built

  2. 02Week 2Skills

    Cowork: architecture, requirements, handover

    • Requirements written as acceptance criteria, not wishes
    • The data model and the migration plan
    • Screen flows for the paths that carry the work
    • The spec scored at a gate before a line of code exists

    8 of 20 assets built

  3. 03Week 3Tools

    Claude Code: engineering and the build

    • A deployed skeleton on your own repository, day one
    • The core workflow rebuilt to fit your process exactly
    • Tests that run the rented original beside yours
    • Continuous deployment, so shipping is not an event

    12 of 20 assets built

  4. 04Week 4Employee

    Secure and migrate

    • The security checklist passed, item by item
    • Your data migrated and verified against the source
    • The team switched over, with the old tool still running beside it
    • A parallel run, so the cutover is evidence rather than nerve

    16 of 20 assets built

  5. 05Week 5Cockpit

    The proof: a working MVP, and the subscription retired

    • The subscription cancelled, with the confirmation kept
    • The saving on the scoreboard against week one's baseline
    • The operating system that built it, packaged to build the next one
    • Demo Day: the tool shown running, not described

    20 of 20 assets built

Entry rule. Bring the subscription you will cancel. If you cannot name one, take the quiz first.

The seats

Software used to need a team. Now it needs three people.

100% Business analyst What the human keeps: Says yes or no to the scope
90% Architect What the human keeps: Signs the architecture and the data model
90% UX What the human keeps: Picks between rendered options
90% Engineering What the human keeps: Reviews at gates, decides the 10 percent that touches money or security
80% QA What the human keeps: Accepts the release
90% Product owner What the human keeps: Owns the roadmap decision, not its production

SMOrchestra AI-Native Dev framework, 2026. Percentages are the share of the seat's output the operating system produces, not a headcount cut.

The stack

Five systems and the factory that makes them.

Named, versioned, and yours. This is the same machinery behind the Entrepreneurs Oasis dev organization.

1

Dev Brainstorm and Roadmap Factory

Idea and gap finder, scoring and roadmapping: turns what should we build into a scored, sequenced roadmap

Replaces: Business analyst, product owner

You own: Every rented tool and every request scored on fit, cost, data ownership and workflow mismatch, with a 12-month replacement roadmap

2

Architect OS

Interview to requirements, data model, flows and screens, spec and handover file, scored at a gate before anything is coded

Replaces: Business analyst, architect, UX

You own: Your context files, security and data conventions and brand system baked in, so every spec passes a gate before it reaches the build

3

Engineering Dev OS

More than 40 development skills and 20 operating procedures: spec-driven build, tests, review, refactor, release, documentation

Replaces: 90 percent of engineering, 80 percent of QA

You own: Installed on your repositories and your pipeline, with the procedures defining how the department works so it survives any individual

4

Production and Security OS

Production skeleton with authentication, roles, multi-tenant, billing and audit log, plus security procedures for secrets, backups, checks and access reviews

Replaces: The operations and security baseline

You own: Every internal tool starts at production grade rather than at demo, and security sign-off is a checklist a non-engineer can run

5

Launching Pad optional

Distribution and monetization: landing, onboarding, pricing, first customers

Replaces: Growth

You own: An internal adoption playbook, or, if a tool is good enough, sell it to peers as a MicroSaaS and turn a cost centre into a product

6

Meta OS

The factory: interview, generate context files, skills and templates, lint and score

Replaces: The systems engineer

You own: Generates the operating system for every new build, so the company owns the means of production

SMOrchestra AI-Native Dev framework, 2026. The same machinery running the Entrepreneurs Oasis dev organization.

The number

What are you renting?

Three subscriptions, your seats, and your backlog. The figures update as you type.

0Yearly rent
0Estimated owned run cost, yearly
0Payback
0Backlog cleared at AI-native speed

Owned run cost is an estimate, not a quote. It uses the GreenLeaf pattern as its basis: $100,000 a year to $300 a month for a 55-person deployment. Source: GreenLeaf, SMOrchestra client.

The arithmetic

Why no is the expensive answer.

Bring the real thing. Real subscription, real pipeline, real backlog. Nobody builds a demo.

Ship-or-retake guarantee

If you attend all scheduled sessions, submit the milestone artifacts, and do not deploy a working system through the Demo Day quality gate, you receive free enrollment in the next cohort plus two hours of private technical remediation.

No open money-back guarantee. Full terms: Academy terms

Fee credit

Your $3,500 comes off Revenue MicroSaaS at $45,000, in full, if you sign within 90 days of Demo Day.

The credit runs 90 days from Demo Day and applies once, to one build, up to that build's price. It is separate from the audit credit, which runs 60 days. Academy terms

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What if I cannot name a subscription to cancel?

Then this is not your rung yet. Take the two-minute quiz; it usually routes people in that position to Build Your OS first. The entry rule exists because the savings baseline is what makes week five real.

Who owns the software at the end?

You do, completely. It is deployed to your own repository and your own hosting from week three, and the operating system that produced it is packaged and handed to you in week five so you can retire the next tool alone.

Do I need engineers on my team?

No. GreenLeaf, a client build by SMOrchestra, replaced $100,000 a year of rented software with $300 a month of owned software at 55 people and no software team. You need someone who knows the workflow and will be in the room.

What does it cost to run afterwards?

Hosting and API usage, which is where the $300 a month figure in the GreenLeaf case comes from. Your own numbers depend on your usage; the calculator on this page estimates them from your inputs and shows the assumption it used.

Is five weeks really enough?

For one system, yes, because the scope is one subscription and the architecture is scored at a gate before any code is written. The guarantee covers you if it is not: attend, submit the artifacts, and retake free with two hours of private remediation.
