For makers with something else on the go

Moved on from it? Your side project hasn’t lost its story.

That weekend build could be worth more than a folder on your laptop.

Goodwattle reviews apps, scripts and tools their makers are ready to sell or license. Start with what you built, even if you never turned it into a business.

Good work has more to give

You built something. That’s a place to start.

A focused tool can solve a real problem without a pitch deck, customer list or full-time team behind it.

01

Small is welcome

A useful script, plugin, experiment or small app is worth describing. Scope and fit matter more than a big introduction.

02

No business sale to organise

The starting point is the software and project materials you own. You don’t need an operating company to enquire.

03

Room for the next idea

Explore whether a purchase or licence makes sense for work you are no longer actively developing.

A good place to start

Sounds like
your kind of work?

Tell us what sparked the idea, what the software does and how far you got.

  • An original app, script, plugin or tool
  • A specific problem it solves or idea it explores
  • Work you have the right to sell or license

A description is plenty for the first step. Please leave out private code, passwords and personal data.

Tell us what you’ve got

A little look. A clear next step.

From old work
to a new conversation.

  1. 1

    Tell us about it

    A short appraisal covers your project and how to reach you. A link or small, non-confidential sample is optional.

  2. 2

    Explore the fit

    A real person reviews your overview. We discuss the opportunity and arrange confidentiality before a detailed review.

  3. 3

    Consider an offer

    If there’s a fit, we put the scope, rights, intended uses and payment in writing. You decide whether to proceed.

A purchase. A licence. A possibility.

A purchase can transfer agreed rights. A licence can let you keep ownership while permitting specific uses, including AI research, training or evaluation. We can discuss a fixed payment, revenue share or ongoing arrangement where suitable. Nothing is sold or licensed by sending an enquiry.

Before you say g’day

Good questions.

A little clarity
goes a long way.

Does it need recurring revenue?

No revenue is needed to submit an enquiry. We assess whether the underlying software and materials fit an opportunity; we do not guarantee that every project will receive an offer.

Can I offer a small script?

Yes. Describe what it does and why it is useful. A focused project may be worth reviewing, depending on its quality, originality, rights and fit.

What if I built it while employed elsewhere?

Check your agreements and tell us about any possible employer or client rights. Only offer work you have authority to sell or license.

What happens after I enquire?

We review your overview and follow up by email. If there is a fit, we discuss confidentiality and any detailed review, then propose the materials, rights, permitted uses and payment in writing. An enquiry is not a commitment to sell or license.

How much could my work be worth?

It depends on the quality, scope, rights and fit of the materials. This is a personal review, not an instant valuation. Not every project receives an offer, and any amount and payment timing are agreed in writing.

What will the materials be used for?

Agreed uses can include AI research, training and evaluation. The agreement sets out the permitted uses and any further licensing before handover. Your initial enquiry does not grant a licence.
