Argonaut

$5
/month

Join the crew.
Argonauts are the first aboard: early supporters who want useful tools to exist outside the usual SaaS maze. Your backing helps keep BuiltByDon moving, shipping, and improving.

Daedalus

$10
/month

Enter the workshop.
Daedalus backers stand behind the craft: sharper tools, cleaner releases, better docs, and more practical apps built for people who would rather own their setup than rent it forever.

Pegasus

$25
/month

Lift the work higher.
Pegasus backers help BuiltByDon climb from useful idea to polished, self-hostable tool. More momentum, better releases, and more practical apps built for people who want to own their setup.
A Discord space for feedback, ideas, and roadmap conversations is planned and coming later.

About Don

building practical, self-hostable tools for productivity and life

I’m Don, a programmer who likes building practical tools that make everyday life a little easier.


BuiltByDon is where I share small, self-hostable apps for productivity, life management, and learning. Most of them start as something I wanted for myself, then get cleaned up so other people can run them too.


I like simple software, owning your own setup, and tools that solve a real problem without turning into another subscription.
