The experience you need to get hired.
At a price that never goes up.
Most self-taught developers apply with side projects employers don't count as experience. Founding members get structured job simulations that build the experience employers actually recognize—and a founding rate of $19.99/mo instead of $29.99/mo, locked in as long as you're a member.

that match what hiring managers actually look for
The problem isn't talent—it's the experience gap. You can't get hired without experience. You can't get experience without being hired. Self-Taught OS breaks that cycle with simulations that mirror real job tasks.
What founding members get
Everything you need to break the experience trap—at a rate that never goes up.
Know exactly where to focus
The Market Pulse Dashboard tracks which skills employers actually hire for — updated weekly. No more guessing what to learn next.
Build experience, not just projects
Job simulations mirror real work tasks at real companies. Each one is 5-10 hours and mapped to in-demand skills. Complete it, and you have real experience—not just another GitHub repo.
One link for every application
Your public profile collects every completed simulation into a shareable portfolio. Attach it to applications, LinkedIn, cold emails — everywhere.
First access to everything
New simulations, new tools, new features — founding members get them before anyone else. You're not on a waitlist. You're at the front of the line.

Common questions
What do I get right now?
You get the $19.99/mo founding rate and your spot in the first 100. The product is actively shipping — founding members get access to each feature as it goes live, starting with Market Pulse and your first simulation. You're paying to be first, not last.
When does billing start?
Immediately. You're subscribing at $19.99/mo (taxes included) — this becomes your permanent rate. Cancel anytime, no contracts.
What if I cancel?
Cancel anytime from your Stripe billing portal. But if you resubscribe later, it will be at the regular $29.99/mo rate. The founding rate is only available to the first 100 members.
Is this a lifetime deal?
It's a founding rate, not a one-time payment. You pay $19.99/mo for as long as you're subscribed — your price never goes up. But if you cancel and resubscribe later, it will be at the regular rate.
I'm still learning the basics. Is this for me?
Yes. The simulations range from beginner to advanced and are designed for people building skills outside of traditional education. If you're teaching yourself, this is built for you.
