Launchpeer failed to even call on the scheduled time. At least you should have informed me that you will not call. I have received emails, reminders confirming the cheduled call. At least the start should be better than that)))

Hi Brandon! We did call twice at the scheduled time but unfortunately the call was not accepted. Our team also emailed you to let you know with a screenshot of the call history once we got this review. If you'd like to reschedule please reach out to hello@launchpeer.com and we'd be happy to set up another time. Have a great day!

They are Human. And we love it.

We are right in the thick of it right now. Jake and the team at LaunchPeer have been awesome. We had this cool idea for roughly a year and a half and it really didn’t go anywhere. In January, Jake and I connected from a Facebook ad or something on Instagram. Since then, the progression of our dream has been unreal.

Working with Jake’s team feels human. It’s a human engagement. A lot of firms I work with are developer run and they speak in technical languages. LaunchPeer is human. They help you think about your product, the validation of it, the user journey, and they make one hell of a prototype. They ask questions you didn’t think of and make you think out everything.  Then, when you’re ready to build, guess what!? They are human. I would classify them as “entrepreneurial friendly” and I honestly believe Jake and his team want us to be successful.

One thing that stuck out is they provided us a quote on our prototype. After some time we came back and said we want to take some features out of the MVP (because we are bootstrapping and paying out of our own pocket). They did not fight us for more money. They did not try to sell us to get a bigger scope. They had a convo with us about what we can do and they came back with an amazing scope and estimate. I was smiling ear to ear bc I felt we were having human convos.

LaunchPeer academy is awesome too. I think I’m only 13% of the way through and I have learned so much.

I can safely say WorkFeel would not be where we are without Jake and the LaunchPeer team. Every entrepreneur has to take the “leap” off the crazy cliff to make it work. LaunchPeer was our first one and we haven’t looked back because our experience has been fantastic. Highly recommend them.

The team did an amazing job. Gabi was very helpful in fleshing out my idea, figuring out what I really need to start with and laying the ground work for an amazing product. Meredith and the team killed it and Meredith was key in keeping me in the loop and keeping me updated on milestones

Quinn and Launchpeer were awesome in setting up our company dashboards. This was a very custom project in which we wanted to track certain metrics and results from our CRM and have them displayed on TV's throughout our office. Because the software is unique and what we were wanting to pull out of it was unique, the time and creativity was certainly intense. Quinn and the team saw it through and delivered an A+ product. We are very happy with them and would recommend them. Thanks!

Hi All,

Launchpeer is the best company I ever worked with. Gabriel and Meredith were so amazing and so helpful in understanding my requirements. They also provided their own suggestions to make this startup. I can feel that they were working so interestingly as if it was their own project. Thank you guys for making my prototype. Waiting for shooting investors with this idea. Thank you once again in helping me.

Save your time and money

Launchpeer overpromised to close the sale, but didn't deliver. My app project was originally estimated at 8-12 weeks, but dragged on for nearly 10 months, and cost me over $73,000. Progress seemed fast at first but after I finished making the installment payments, things ground to a crawl. In the end I was forced to finish with them for the sake of moving my product forward. They handed off an incredibly buggy and crash prone app which will take more time and resources to fix. If you're an entrepreneur please save your time and money and look for another agency. Reading the other reviews below, I'm not convinced they sound real.

Hello John! We’re sorry you feel this way, and honestly quite surprised. Here’s why.

Regarding bugs, you personally gave approval that our team had completed any remaining bugs on your project, which we did at no cost during our free bug fixing and maintenance period. Here’s a screenshot showing that:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_Km-eqBzdBKcTr-5GiXs_pxRBaGtV8Iy/view?usp=sharing

Regarding our team’s speed, you mentioned on several occasions how our development team is faster and more skilled than what you have worked with in the past, which we felt humbled by considering you’re a Tech Product Owner at PNC Bank. Here’s a screenshot showing that:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kDFT4LbMTE91SEYUhAP5pAMqcKnLOfJA

Regarding our team’s capabilities, you actually attempted to poach our developers on several occasions, which although we were a little upset by, also made us happy you were pleased enough with our team’s work that you would go to those lengths. Here’s a screenshot showing that:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1P0U7I17KWonnbGuUs1cmDgr3fyxvRmJq

All that being said, we don’t post this response to be argumentative, but to show our genuine surprise at your review. Of course if there’s any outstanding items you’d like us to work on we’d be happy to do that at no cost like we did for you in the past, but as the first screenshot shows you approved the app and had us transfer everything over to you.

Feel free to reach out to our team if you’d like to take us up on the offer, but if not we wish you best of luck in the future!

Jake and his team over at Launchpeer…

Jake and his team over at Launchpeer have been absolutely incredible while working with me on my app. I had looked for months for an avenue to go in developing my application and I am so thankful I found these guys. Each team member takes time to walk you through the process, and truly fine-tune your startup's overall direction. The professional, and naturing process they set up for me has been such a huge boost for me and my startup.

Once I am funded, I will definitely be partnering with Launchpeer again for my app development.

Excellent Customer Service and Prototype Design!

Launchpeer did an excellent job bringing my idea to life! The prototype service is top notch, the process they implement allows you discover different things along the way and also promotes brainstorming. I worked closely with Rebecca, Gabe, Quinn and Jake specifically on my project. They were all super accessible, responsive, and understanding of my needs. Overall one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had. Looking forward to referring more projects to them and working with them in the future.

Ahmed, Founder of SSEX

Initially, I was a bit skeptical that LaunchPeer could help me with my complex idea. To mold it into a clear, concise, and collected vision would require a team able to grasp concepts and think bold - that's exactly what I got with LaunchPeer! My unwarranted doubts were quickly quelled after being given a trailer of what the process would look like. We got to work unfolding my vision and breaking it down step by step. Grateful to my team Rebecca and Gabe for guiding me throughout the process, asking me sometimes tough questions, forcing me to think even further outside the box, and for their timeliness and patience - after learning to trust it, I thoroughly enjoyed every step of the process! A big shoutout to Jake as well for the prep and taking over the reigns. Looking forward to what comes next!

Awesome Experience with an Awesome Deliverable

Working with Gebe and Rebecca was amazing. They handled every detail with exceptional professionalism and were always punctual with deliverables. The Launchpeer team also did a great job of interpreting all of our inputs and translating them into high quality designs. The whole prototyping experience was awesome and seamless. I can't recommend it enough.

I launched with Launchpeer

I have been working with the Launchpeer team since February on an idea I have had for a couple years now. As advertised, they have guided me from taking this idea from a concept in my head to a prototype with a viable pitch deck. They have been with me every step of the way providing feedback, guidance, encouragement, technical information, and access to an array of skills. My prototype looks fantastic and I feel confident I can turn this idea into a business now. Had I not gone with Launchpeer I don't know if this idea ever would have made it past the sketches in my notebook.

Entrepreneur scammers

I'm an entrepreneur and I have been attending many accelerator programs for the last 2 years. I'm always eager to learn nonstop. I saw Launchpeer's Instagram ad and I contacted them. They were preparing your app company to be investor ready. Owner of the company told me on the phone that they have 70% success rate on fundings. He told me that I could raise $400K in couple months easily and signed me up for the program. I was so excited because I have been working on my project for 2 years. They had video lessons for new entrepreneurs but I already knew everything they taught on there. I was only interested in their investor network but it turned out to be a big lie. They are playing with people's dreams and hardwork. They stole from me $1900. I demanded full refund of my money but company owner kicked me out of the program and ignored my messages. I haven't take any legal action but I'm about to fight with this company. My only purpose is to show people real face of this entrepreneur scammers. They claim that they helped 300 companies. It means with 70% success rate they should have 210 companies with seed round. When I asked them what's the name of these companies, they didn't answer. I'm a justice person. My entire life I fought for justice. This company should be stopped before more people are getting scammed. Please be aware and share this info with your entrepreneur friends. By the way, you can learn everything they teach you online for free. Garbage information.

Hello Burak!

Unfortunately what you say doesn't like up with what you have stated to us previously.

Here's the message exchange between you and our founder where you state your harsh words/reviews are because you're looking for a refund because you were financially strapped, which we have provided already.

We never state such claims on our website and actually have many testimonials and case studies which we've garnered by giving our customers great results over the last 5 years in business. Unfortunately in your situation you were only able to work with us for one month before your financial situation necessitated your exit from the program.

Message exchange contradicting your review:

We're sorry you're dealing with this financial situation right now and wish you all the best going forward!

I would work with Launchpeer 10 times over again after the experience I’ve had. I dove into the Idea to Funded coursework and landed a lead investor a few weeks later. Jake Hare has been there supporting me every step of the way and he is the best mentor I’ve ever had. Working with Launchpeer changed my life in a very short amount of time and I look forward to a long relationship of working with Jake and the team. Work with Launchpeer!!!
