About this collection
Every listing in this collection is for sale outright. The founder has decided to hand the project to someone else and move on. The deploy works in most cases, the codebase is intact, and the path to launch is mapped out in the listing's own words.
Most sales close between $300 and $5,000. Hand crafted SaaS with paying customers tends to land higher. AI built MVPs without users land at the lower end. Each listing's price reflects what the founder thinks the project is worth to a buyer with time to ship.
Sales close in two or three email threads. The founder transfers the repo, the domain, and the hosting accounts. A couple of weeks of light support while you ramp is standard. Then the project is yours.

Before you buy
What to look for
The five checks that separate a great listing from a regret. Run through them before any wire transfer goes out.
- 01
Verify everything that gets transferred
Repo, domain, hosting, customer accounts, mailing list, any third-party API keys. Get a written checklist. Most disputes happen here.
- 02
Test the deploy yourself
Sign up as a fresh user. Create a record. Cancel an account. If anything breaks in the core flow, raise it before the wire goes out.
- 03
Read the founder note carefully
Why they stopped is often the most revealing line in the listing. Some reasons are personal, some are structural. Both matter.
- 04
Confirm monthly costs
Hosting, domain, AI APIs, third-party SaaS. Listings disclose them but you should run the math yourself before paying.
- 05
Use a written agreement for $5k+
One-page asset purchase agreement covers what is being transferred and what is not. Stripe Atlas and Clerky publish free templates.
After you buy
How to take it over
The hardest middle is already done. Four steps to turn a dormant repo into something live again.
- Step 01
Use a written agreement
One-page asset purchase agreement is enough for most deals under $10k. Stripe Atlas and Clerky publish free templates.
- Step 02
Block off ninety minutes for handoff
Run the asset transfer in a single session with the founder on a screen share. Repo, domain, hosting, customer accounts, mailing list, API keys.
- Step 03
Get the project running on your stack
Once everything is yours, boot the project on your own infra. Confirm every flow that the founder said worked still works. This is when small handoff gaps surface.
- Step 04
Ship something inside two weeks
The hardest middle is already done. Pick the first launch milestone and put it in front of real users. Momentum is the whole game from here.
FAQ
Common questions
- How does a sale on Failedups actually close?
- You email the founder from the listing page. They reply with details and usually offer a Zoom walkthrough. You agree on price, terms, and what is being transferred. You sign a one-page asset purchase agreement and wire the money. The founder hands over the repo, domain, hosting, and customer accounts. Most deals close in two or three threads.
- Do I need a contract to buy a small startup?
- For sales above a few thousand dollars, yes. A one-page asset purchase agreement covers what is being transferred and what is not. Stripe Atlas and Clerky publish free templates that work for sub-$10k acquisitions. We do not give legal advice but we strongly recommend something written.
- What gets transferred when I buy a startup here?
- Repo, domain, hosting accounts, customer accounts, mailing list, third-party API keys, and any social handles tied to the project. The exact set varies by listing. Get a written checklist before paying.
- Can I walk away after seeing the full repo?
- Yes. There is no obligation until you wire money. Most founders are willing to share repo access under an NDA, or a 20 minute screen share, before final commitment. Walking away is the right move if the code or the founder does not match the listing.
- What happens if the deploy breaks the day after I buy?
- Most founders offer a couple of weeks of light support after handoff. Standard practice on Failedups. If something the founder said worked turns out to be broken, raise it inside that window. Most are reasonable.
- Why do founders sell instead of finishing the project themselves?
- Time, focus, life. Most have moved on to a new prompt and are not coming back. Some hit a hard part they did not have the patience for. A few realized they had built the wrong thing. Read the founder note carefully, that line is usually the most honest part of the listing.
