Stowe Labs is a small, single-person studio that builds practical digital products for solopreneurs and small-shop owners. The goal: tools that help you spend less time on the parts of your business that don’t pay, so you have more time for the parts that do.
What we make
Templates, prompt packs, planners, e-books, and design assets — all immediately downloadable, all designed to be useful from the first ten minutes of opening them. No fluff, no padded page counts, no “ultimate” anything.
Most products target the workflows we know best:
- Etsy and Gumroad sellers writing listings, fixing SEO, and replying to customers
- Pinterest marketers publishing without burning out
- Side-hustlers shipping their first digital product
- Small teams using AI without losing their voice
Who’s behind it
I’m David Stowe. I’ve spent the last decade-plus building tools — for newspapers, for plumbing contractors, and now for myself and the small-shop community I’m part of. Stowe Labs is the version of that work I’ve been wanting to make for years: small, useful, fairly priced, easy to leave a one-line bug report about and have a real human reply.
The studio is intentionally tiny. There’s no team page because there’s no team — just me, plus a handful of AI helpers I’ve named and put to work behind the scenes (their names sometimes show up in posts as “Sage,” “Maya,” “Scout,” etc.). They handle drafts and research; I handle the calls about what ships.
How we work
A few things we try to do, and a few things we try not to:
- Ship narrow products, not broad ones. A pack of 75 Etsy prompts beats a “complete Etsy mastery system.”
- Price fairly — most products land between $5 and $30. The model is volume of useful things, not premium positioning.
- No upsell ladders, no fake countdown timers, no cart abandonment guilt-trip emails.
- Refund when something’s broken. See the Shipping & Returns page for the full policy.
What’s next
The catalog grows roughly weekly. New products land in the shop and the blog covers the workflows behind them — what we built, what worked, what didn’t. The newsletter (footer of any page) is the lowest-friction way to hear about new releases.
