Disposable by Design

Built for one job.
Gone when it's done.

Bespoke, disposable tools for the problems your real software
was never built to solve.


The awkward middle ground.

Every enterprise has one: a bounded problem too important for a spreadsheet, too small to justify a real application. So nothing gets built. People work around it. Insights get lost. Decisions get made on worse information than they should.

That's not a resourcing problem. It's a category problem.

Most software is built to last.
Not every problem deserves — or needs — software that lasts.

You already know this problem.

There's a dataset that needs review — candidate data, Q1 accounts, decisions that need validating against a framework, feedback that needs to be collected in a structured way.

Excel lives here. But Excel is too raw. The interface doesn't match how your team thinks about the problem.

You'd build a real application — except a real application is slow, expensive, and permanent. Maintenance debt for a temporary need.

So people suffer through. Workarounds accumulate. Insights get lost in follow-up emails. A real tool was never built because a permanent tool was never justified.

# Your data is already in a spreadsheet.
# One command turns it into a tool.

# No installation. No login. No setup.

Everything they need.
Nothing they don't.

Every Burner App is self-contained: your data, their interface, the logic to work with it — all embedded in a single HTML file.

When the job is done, the file gets deleted. No orphaned software. No one asking "who maintains this?" six months later. The impermanence isn't a limitation. It's the feature.

  • Clear orientation — the Consumer opens the file and immediately knows what to do
  • Search and filtering — find what matters across all your content instantly
  • Navigation — move through connected records and relationships
  • Flag and annotate — mark issues, add notes, capture assessments
  • One-click export — structured report, human-readable and machine-processable
  • Integrity verification — cryptographic proof the report came from the exact content distributed
  • Session insight — what they searched, what they flagged, how long they spent

Information doesn't just flow out.
It comes back clean.

Most tools move information in one direction: creator to consumer. Then someone sends an email asking for clarification.

The Consumer reviews your content, flags issues, adds notes, exports a structured report — with a cryptographic fingerprint verifying it came from the exact dataset you distributed.

No email chains asking for missing context. No interpretation gaps. No follow-up meetings to validate what they meant. One export. One handoff. Done.


Start this week.

🔥
We build it for you.
Tell us the problem. We'll have something in your hands by end of week. You distribute to your team, collect the report, and hand off. Zero effort on your side. Zero training for the Consumer.

We teach your team.
Your team already has the problems. We'll give them the capability to build Burner Apps themselves — the methodology, the tooling, hands-on practice with your own content. Leave able to spin one up for every bounded problem you hit.

Know when to reach for this.

The right moment
  • The problem is bounded — you can clearly define done
  • The timeline is short — days or weeks, not months
  • The audience is known — specific people with a specific need
  • Existing tools are overkill or broken — Excel is too raw, a full app is too much
  • You need to move fast
Not the right fit
  • The tool needs to run indefinitely
  • Real-time data integration is essential
  • Compliance or audit trails require permanent systems
  • Enterprise infrastructure integration is critical

Not a platform. Not a product.

The product is the methodology and the execution capability.

"Build it. Ship it. Burn it. Then build the next one."

The problem is already waiting.
