Inspiration

Every SMB owner we talked to had the same pain: hours lost writing quotes, chasing unpaid invoices, and reviewing pitch decks manually. We are two young students from Benin, West Africa — we saw this problem firsthand in our local market and decided to solve it with AI. If AI can run a business, why are founders still doing admin work by hand?

What it does

Dealyze runs 4 autonomous AI agents that handle the most painful deal processes:

  • Deal Draft: generates professional quotes in 2 minutes from 5 inputs
  • Smart Chase: automates invoice follow-ups with auto-escalating tone
  • Pitch Radar: scores and analyzes pitch decks in 30 seconds
  • Deep Due: runs complete due diligence reports in 10 minutes All agents are live in production via a secure FastAPI backend with JWT authentication.

How we built it

Built with Python 3.12, FastAPI, Gemini API (Google AI Studio), Firebase, SQLite, and Lemon Squeezy for payments. Two founders, zero external funding, built from scratch in Benin, West Africa. The backend is fully deployed on Render with automated CI/CD via GitHub.

Challenges we ran into

Our biggest challenge was geographical: Google Cloud requires a bank card for activation, and standard bank cards are hard to come by in Benin. We, however, only had virtual cards. We found creative solutions—Gemini via Google AI Studio and Firebase—and kept building without stopping. Being two students with limited resources forced us to build in a way that was lean, fast, and smart.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We developed and deployed a comprehensive AI-powered SaaS platform into production—featuring four functional agents, a robust payment infrastructure, and a working API—all while studying full-time, without any funding, and with limited access and resources. The backend is live, tested, and ready to onboard real customers.

What we learned

We learned that constraints are not blockers — they are filters. Every limitation forced us to find a better, simpler solution. We also learned that building a real business requires more than code: it requires understanding customer pain deeply and shipping fast.

What's next for Dealyze

Acquiring the first 10 paying customers before August 17. Then scaling to three markets simultaneously: the francophone market (France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada), the anglophone market (USA, UK, Australia), and the African market — 500 million people with millions of SMBs still running on paper and WhatsApp. Dealyze is built for all of them. One platform, three markets, one mission: turn every deal into done.
