Building devplan.com. Former CTO. ex-Zillow/Uber/Amazon. Dad. Dreamer.
- New market pace: Top startups are hitting $100M in 3-6 months(!), not years. Quarterly planning cycles is the furthest you want to plan ahead.

Biggest theme? Nobody knows exactly where this is going, but the pace is accelerating.

🧠 Downloadable Prompts
You can now download our detailed coding prompts as standalone files for tools like Claude Code, Cursor, JetBrains, and Windsurf right from the browser. No CLI needed.

🤖 Claude Code Support
We now support Claude Code across all coding assistance. You'll get detailed, structured prompts tailored for Anthropic’s coding assistant, ready to drop into your workflow.

🪜 Step-by-Step Prompts
In addition to the one-shot feature prompts, you can now generate step-by-step prompts to move more methodically through features with your AI coding agent of choice.

🔧 Smarter Agents
We’ve updated our model selections and improved reasoning and system prompts across the board, especially in the build plan.

🧩 Build Plan Tab
Each user story now lives in the new consolidated Build Plan tab, with context-rich AI coding prompts built right into them.

🧵 The more we build with AI, the more we believe context engineering is the real unlock.

Some big updates from this week in Devplan in that areas and others. Starting off with a new homepage design. #buildinpublic

Public beta just opened for Devplan and it’s been a little wild. Early signs say we might be onto something...
Appreciate all the product builders giving it a spin!

You also get…

✅ Test case generation
✅ Go-to-market checklists
✅ A shared roadmap that stays in sync

It’s like having a new PM teammate for planning, building, and shipping.

Every feature in the plan has its own AI code assistant.

You get:
💡 One-shot prompts for Cursor, Windsurf, etc.
🧠 Step-by-step breakdowns
🧰 CLI that pulls tasks + prompts straight into your IDE

Once you’ve got a PRD + Tech Design, Devplan generates a full build plan with:

• Structured user stories
• Acceptance criteria
• Dependencies

This isn’t a doc generator, it’s a thinking partner.

Devplan guides you through product and technical planning, surfacing edge cases, unknowns, and tradeoffs before you hit the code.

ICYMI, a Stanford study of 50K engineers found 9.5% are doing little to no work. The study was imperfect, but wow, what a claim.

People do their best work when they feel like they are growing or will be rewarded. Simple as that. Without either, most people try to skate by if culture allows it.
