The problem

Sound familiar?

Every morning, you spend more time setting up than shipping. Switching projects? Onboarding a new hire? Same story.

The 15-minute coffee tax

Open VS Code. Wait. Start Docker. Wait. Find the right repo. Remember the env vars. Pour another coffee.

Context-switch chaos

Three projects, three stacks, three Docker compose files. You're losing 30 minutes every time you switch.

"Did you install…?"

Onboarding a new dev means a 2-page README, 4 hours of "it doesn't work on my machine," and a Slack thread for the ages.

Features

Built to get you coding faster

Stop juggling. Pick a scenario, hit launch, write code.

5s average time to a fully booted environment

One-click launch

Pick your scenario. Hit Launch. Every app, every tab, every terminal window — exactly where you left them. No more sequential staring.

Custom scenarios per project

"Frontend day" boots VS Code + Chrome + Slack + Figma. "Backend API" spins up Docker + Postman + your DB GUI. Build once, reuse forever.

Team-ready

Share scenarios with your team. New hires get a working environment in 30 seconds — not 4 hours.

Cross-platform

Native installers for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Same scenarios, any machine.

SOC 2 ready

Encrypted scenarios, role-based access, audit logs. Approved by security teams from startups to Fortune 500.

FAQ

Quick answers

Everything you'd ask in a Slack DM. We saved you the trouble.

Is there really no credit card required?

Correct. Free plan is free forever, no card. Paid plans start with a 14-day trial — we ask for a card only if you want to keep going.

Does Launcher work on Windows and Linux?

Yes. Native installers for macOS (Intel + Apple Silicon), Windows 10/11, and major Linux distros (Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch). Same scenarios, any OS.

Can I share scenarios with my team?

On the Team plan, scenarios sync to a shared workspace. New hires get the full setup with one click — average onboarding is 30 seconds.

How does Launcher handle security?

Scenarios are encrypted at rest and in transit. We're SOC 2 Type II compliant, support SSO/SAML, and provide audit logs out of the box. Read our security page.

Can I cancel anytime?

One click from your billing dashboard. No annual lock-in, no cancellation calls, no fine print.

Does Launcher slow down my computer?

No. Launcher itself is a few MB of RAM when idle. It only spins up apps when you hit launch — exactly the apps you'd open manually.
