I built ScopeShield AI, a specialized micro-SaaS and agency utility designed for freelance software developers, independent designers, and boutique agencies.
The Problem & Who Pays For It: Every freelancer knows the pain of scope creep. A client sends a casual 5-sentence email asking for a "simple website with online ordering and maybe an admin dashboard later." If the freelancer doesn't explicitly define boundaries and out-of-scope clauses upfront, a 2-week project turns into 2 months of unpaid revisions.
