For builders: professionals who design business tools

You build. TheDonky distributes.

TheDonky puts your tool in front of the professionals who need it, at the moment they are looking for it, and installs it for them in one click. You keep your code, your licence and your relationship with your users.

1. What you get out of it

What TheDonky brings you.

Your know-how is already in your tool. TheDonky puts it in front of the people who need it.

The visibility your work deserves

Your tool is shown to professionals in your sector, filed by need, with your name and your background. They find it at the moment they are looking for a solution.

Qualified requests

Your users write to you from the app: an improvement, a module, custom work. Contacts who already know your expertise.

Income from what you add

Your add-on modules and the custom work ordered from you earn you money. The tool itself stays free to access for your users.

Real needs, in the words of the trade

When a professional expresses a need, we look for the builder who has already solved it. A few examples:

See the four sectors

Real estate

Produce a well-argued valuation before meeting the seller

Agents, self-employed agents

Construction

Price a quote on site and get the client to sign it

Tradespeople, construction firms

Legal

Work more easily with my clients on their cases

Law firms

HR & payroll

Recover IJSS sickness benefits paid through subrogation, one absence at a time

Employers, payroll administrators

2. What TheDonky does

The distribution layer for your tool.

You build the tool. TheDonky takes care of the rest: making it easy to use, and making it last.

Make it easy to use

So your tool gets adopted.

One click to install

On Mac and Windows, with no warnings and no technical skills needed. People find your tool by sector and by need.

Data, organised for you

You declare your schema; the Workspace creates the workbooks on the user’s computer, migrates them and backs them up.

Add-on kits and custom work

Your users add your add-on kits or order custom work from you, right in the app.

Make it last

So people keep using it.

Frictionless updates

Your users get every new version without lifting a finger. Backup before migration, rollback available.

A standard that doesn’t break

A published version stays readable. The standard is open: your tool outlives every version, and even us.

The connection with your users

Messages, feature requests, specific uses. You stay connected.

Founding Partner programme

The first cohorts are forming now. The first builders are building TheDonky with us.

  • Support to adapt your tool
  • A place in the store from day one
  • A say in the standard and the Studio
3. From file to tool

Your tool already exists. The Studio adapts it.

No need to be a developer: the Studio converts your tool to the TheDonky standard, with you.

Example: Établi, born on a building site

What the Studio adapts

A spreadsheet

The Excel workbook you already use.

A Claude or ChatGPT artifact

The tool you built with an AI.

ClaudeChatGPTMistralGeminiQwen

An open-source program

An application whose code is public.

4. Your application

Submit your tool.

Five steps, no commitment. We read every proposal and get back to you by email.

  1. Step 1: You submit your tool

    A few questions about your field and what you have built. It takes a few minutes.

  2. Step 2: We talk

    We read every proposal and get back to you by email to discuss it.

  3. Step 3: The Studio adapts it

    Your spreadsheet, artifact or software is converted to the TheDonky standard, with you.

  4. Step 4: You publish

    Your tool joins the Workspace store, organised by sector and by need.

  5. Step 5: Your first users

    Professionals in your field install it in one click. You talk to them from the app.

1Who are you?

A link that helps us get to know your background. Tell us what it is.

The profile that fits you best *

2Your expertise

Your sector(s)

3Your tool

How far along is your tool? *

One link per tool, 5 at most. For each one, tell us what it shows.

Each link must be viewable without an account or password, and must not show any client data.

5. Questions

What builders ask us.

Another question? Write to us from the chat bubble: a real person will reply.

No. A spreadsheet or a Claude artifact can easily be adapted to the platform. The Studio also converts a ChatGPT artifact or an open-source program.

Professionals in your sector. They find it in the Workspace store, organised by sector and by need, and install it in one click on Mac or Windows.

On their computer. You declare your schema; the Workspace creates the workbooks on the user’s side, migrates them and backs them up. Neither TheDonky nor the builders have access to their business data.

We read every proposal and get back to you by email. Submitting commits you to nothing and gives TheDonky no rights over the information you share.
