One of our teammates started a small cookie business in grade 10 but didn’t understand how pricing and market demand worked. They ended up selling cookies at a loss and realized how hard it is to start a business without proper guidance or market analysis.

That valuable experience inspired us to create JustAStartUp — a tool that helps new founders understand their market and plan for sustainable growth.

JustAStartUp helps startup founders:

• Analyze their market and industry landscape
• Identify competitors and barriers to entry
• Estimate future growth potential
• Gain data-driven insights on pricing and demand
• Generate custom pitch decks based on market data

With JustAStartUp, founders can make smarter, more confident business decisions before launch.

We used a modern, full-stack setup to bring this idea to life:

Frontend:

• ReactJS
• TypeScript
• TailwindCSS
• HTML

Backend:

• Node.js
• Supabase (PostgreSQL Database)

AI / Analytics:

• Gemini API for insight generation
• SerpAPI for competitor and trend data

Together, these tools allowed us to build a responsive web app with secure data handling and real-time analytics.
