Locus Founder — an AI cofounder that builds your internet business
Locus Founder is an AI cofounder for internet businesses — the AI agent that builds and runs the whole business for you, not just one piece of it. You describe an idea in plain language — over text or the web — and the agent does the work between the idea and the customer: it builds a real website on its own domain, runs cold outreach from your inbox, creates and tunes ad campaigns, keeps a CRM of every lead and customer, and wires in Stripe to take payments. You keep the final word — anything customer-facing waits for your approval.
Where an AI website builder or a no-code app builder gives you a tool to operate yourself, and a general AI agent answers questions, Locus is an AI business builder that executes across the launch and operating workflow, so you can start an online business with AI and build it end to end, without writing code or hiring a team.
What the agent executes through the workflow
- Builds a website and ships it on a custom domain after your review
- Researches prospects, drafts outreach, and sends only after your approval
- Prepares ad campaigns and runs them after you approve the launch and budget
- Maintains a CRM of every lead and customer
- Collects payments through your own Stripe account
Pricing
Locus is free to start — a 24-hour free trial with $5 of agent credit and a card on file; cancel before it ends and you are never charged. To take a business live, Founder Monthly is $50/month, and Founder Annual is $500/year (two months free) — each with a monthly agent-credit allowance. Customer payments settle into your own Stripe account; Locus adds a 1% fee per charge. Only once a business clears $1,000 of revenue in a calendar month does Locus take 5% of revenue above that line — the first $1,000 each month is entirely yours. You own everything — domain, customers, content, and Stripe account — and can export supported assets and data.
Common questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. If you can send a text message, you can run a workspace — nothing to install and nothing to learn before you start.
What work can the agent execute?
It builds a website for your review, researches prospects, drafts outreach and ads, keeps a CRM, and connects your Stripe account. Customer-facing actions wait for your approval.
How much control do I have?
Full control. Nothing that reaches a customer — a message, an ad, a price, a charge — goes out without your explicit approval.
Who owns the business Locus builds?
You do — the domain, the customers, the content, and the Stripe account. Locus is the cofounder, not the owner, and supported assets and data can be exported.
What does Locus cost?
It's free to start with a 24-hour trial ($5 of agent credit, nothing charged until you subscribe). To take a business live, Founder Monthly is $50/month; Founder Annual is $500/year. Customer payments go to your own Stripe account with a 1% fee, and Locus takes 5% of monthly revenue only above $1,000.
How fast does something go live?
Timing depends on the idea, required inputs, domain and payment setup, connected channels, and your approvals. A live page or sent message is not evidence of customers or revenue.
Will the AI do something I don't want?
No. Nothing customer-facing — a message, an ad, a price, a charge — goes out without your explicit approval, and you can pause a workspace anytime.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime. Cancel during the free trial and you're never charged; after that you keep access through the period you've paid for.
