Runable for Entrepreneurs: Your One-Person Team
Use one AI agent, Runable, to do the work of a small team for a new business: research the market, write the plan, make the launch content, and (coming next) build the landing page. One made-up candle brand, Harbor & Pine, grows across every module.
Who it’s for: Solo founders, side-hustlers, freelancers and small-business owners with no staff. No design, writing or coding background needed, and every module runs on Runable's Free plan.
Why this course
A new business needs four kinds of work before the first sale: research (is there a market, who else sells, at what price), a plan (customer, offer, price, first 30 days), content (something to post), and a website. A solo founder either pays for each one or loses weekends to it.
Runable is a general AI agent: you describe the finished work, it asks what it needs, plans, uses tools such as web search and image models, and hands you a document, a report, slides or a site. This course follows Maya Chen (made up) as she launches Harbor & Pine, a small-batch soy candle brand in Portland, using Runable for each job, and checking its work at every step.
Every screen in the practice is a real Runable screen on the Free plan, captured October 2026, and every output is what Runable really made. We also show what went wrong: a cost that did not add up, a typo inside an AI image, and what a one-word fix really cost in credits.

Runable: Size Up Your Market and 5 Competitors Before You Spend a Dollar
Most new founders buy stock first and research later. Before Harbor & Pine (a made-up candle brand) spends $3,000 on wax, jars and fragrance, Maya needs three answers: is the market real, who already sells to it and at what price, and where is the gap. A consultant charges $1,500 or more for that, and doing it yourself takes a weekend of tabs.

Runable: Turn Your Research into a One-Page Business Plan (and Catch the Bad Math)
Research tells you the market is there. A plan tells you what to do on Monday: who buys, what you sell, at what price, where, what happens in the first 30 days, and what could go wrong. A plan writer charges $500 to $1,500. And a plan with one wrong cost in it is worse than none, because you price, order and borrow on that number.

Runable: Make an Instagram Launch Carousel for Your Products (and Catch the AI Typo)
A launch needs people to know the product before they meet you. For Harbor & Pine (made up), that means three scent names, what they smell like and the price, in one Instagram carousel. A freelance designer charges $150 to $300 a carousel, and doing it yourself in a design app takes an afternoon.
