What this is.
Vantage Foundry is a curated store of digital tools for people who work independently - freelancers, solopreneurs, side-hustlers, and anyone who takes their own productivity seriously. Built and chosen to give you a genuine advantage.
Everything in the catalogue is either made here or chosen because it earns its place. The store is small by design. There is no filler.
The name.
Vantage carries two meanings, both intentional. The first is advantage - the products here give you an edge: a better system, a cleaner workflow, a tool that does the thinking for you once it's set up. The second is vantage point - clarity and perspective. The kind of product that doesn't just solve a problem but helps you see your situation more clearly.
Foundry means things are made here, with craft and intention. Not resold wholesale, not scraped together. Whether we built it ourselves or chose it carefully from what exists, it went through a filter.
Who it's for.
The Vantage Foundry buyer is an individual, not an enterprise. A freelancer or solopreneur working more professionally without working more hours. A side-hustler building something alongside a day job, short on time and deliberate about it. Or someone who isn't necessarily building a business but treats their own effectiveness as something worth investing in. A small studio of two or three people running their own work is a fine fit too - what we're not for is corporate procurement or company-wide rollouts.
See the three working set-ups ↗ for a closer look at how each of these starts with our catalogue.
The Standard.
Whether we made it or chose it, every item in the catalogue has been used in real work against real deadlines. Four criteria, no exceptions.
It actually works.
Not a pretty template that breaks on real data. Not a tool we listed for the commission. If it's here, it does what it says.
Owned, not rented.
You can keep using it if the seller disappears. No mandatory subscriptions, no lock-in.
Built for independent work.
Designed for people who run their own work - independent operators and small studios. Not built for enterprise rollouts or corporate procurement.
No tricks.
The price is the price. The product is what it says. No fake scarcity, no countdown timers, no bait-and-switch.
If a tool stops meeting the Standard.
It comes down. We don't issue a press release, we just remove it. The catalogue stays small on purpose - adding something is a decision, not a default.
