ShipTrust

ShipTrust is a guided trust-readiness scanner for indie SaaS builders, AI tool creators and small teams.

It helps app builders understand how trustworthy their product looks before users decide to sign up, pay, or leave.

What is ShipTrust?

ShipTrust turns a simple product profile into practical trust-readiness output:

• trust score
• customer-facing trust gaps
• developer-ready tasks
• trust page draft
• markdown report

The product is built for early-stage teams that need to see what users or first B2B customers may question before they pay.

Why this exists

Early-stage products often work before they look trustworthy.

ShipTrust helps builders answer questions like:

• What trust signals are missing from the product?
• Which customer-facing gaps should be fixed first?
• What developer tasks can be shipped quickly?
• What should a lightweight trust page include?
