Six steps, in the order they actually happen. No step is mandatory beyond the purchase itself — customize, launch, and scale support are all optional.
Search and filter vetted products by industry, technology, price, and business model. Every listing includes real specs, not marketing copy — tech stack, compliance status, and what's actually included.
Use the built-in ROI calculator and feature comparison tables to weigh listings against each other, and against what it would cost to build the same thing yourself.
Choose how you own it: Complete Buy, White-Label Licensing, or Revenue Share. Request pricing directly from a listing or book a consultation — every model includes what's actually needed to launch, not just a source code drop.
Brand it, configure workflows, and connect it to your existing tools — either with your own team using the source you now own, or with Stack18's Product Customization service.
Go live on your own infrastructure in weeks, not the months or years a from-scratch build would take. Cloud and self-hosted deployment paths are documented on every listing.
Keep growing with ongoing engineering, integrations, and go-to-market support from Stack18's premium services team — engaged only if and when you need it.
Pick the model that fits your capital, goals, and appetite for risk — from full ownership to a lean revenue-share partnership.
A one-time purchase with full ownership and source code — modify, resell, or commercialize freely.
White-label the platform under your own brand for a predictable monthly fee, with updates and support included.
Launch with minimal upfront investment and share an agreed percentage of revenue as you grow.
You can start with Revenue Share or White-Label Licensing and move to Complete Buy later — prior investment is credited toward the upgrade where applicable.
Most buyers go from discovery to launch in 2-6 weeks, depending on how much customization is needed.
No, customization and launch support are optional. Many buyers handle these steps with their own team.
You get full ownership at purchase. Stack18's involvement afterward is entirely opt-in, through premium services.
Complete Buy is a one-time purchase that transfers full source code and IP to you, with no recurring payments. White-Label Licensing is a monthly fee to run the platform under your brand — Stack18 retains the underlying IP and you can't resell ownership.
You launch with minimal or no upfront cost and share an agreed percentage of ongoing revenue with Stack18 instead. It's evaluated case by case and best suited to agencies, consultants, and new founders starting lean.
Yes. You can start with Revenue Share or White-Label Licensing and move to Complete Buy later — prior investment is credited toward the upgrade where applicable.
