5/ Find a developer who specialises in finishing AI projects
- They understand the common patterns
- They won't judge your AI-generated code
- They can work with your existing structure

Stop trying to become a full developer.

Start focusing on shipping your idea.

4/ Set a realistic budget
- Most "last 20%" fixes cost £50-100
- Less than you'll spend on wasting your time trying to fix things.

2/ Document exactly what's broken
- Screenshot the error
- Copy the exact error message
- Note what you expected to happen

3/ List everything you've already tried
- This saves the developer time
- Helps them avoid duplicate work

8/ Finally posted on Last20. A developer fixed it.

9/ Fixed in a few hours.

That's why we built Last20. For moments exactly like this.

4/ Bought Cursor Pro (£23) thinking a different AI would help

5/ Burned through £31 in Claude Code calls asking for debugging help

6/ Paid for Stack Overflow Premium (£15) to ask better questions

7/ Bought a Udemy course on deployment (£29)

What have you done to improve your product in the last week ?

Problem: Developers were unsure about payouts

→ Solution: Improved payment explanation with clear descriptions and a simple flow.

Problem: Too many fields to define a task

→ Solution: Redefined the minimum data, trimmed fields, and added smart defaults and drafts facility for saving tasks to be added later.

5/ This isn't a failure of AI - it's just the reality of building real software.

The solution? Find developers who specialize in finishing what AI started.

3/ The last 20% is often about making things work together, not just making individual pieces work.

4/ AI can't debug production environments, handle deployment quirks, or troubleshoot server configurations.

The outcome is pretty clear, but somehow we convince ourselves we should figure it out alone.

Why do we do this to ourselves?

#TimeManagement #AICosts #DeveloperEfficiency #ProductivityChallenges

That psychological shift? That's the real cost of the last 20%.

#Perseverance #KeepGoing #Momentum #BuildingSuccess #OvercomingChallenges #StayMotivated

But with no real technical understanding they can not describe the problems they are having.

If you are one of these people. Talk to us on our Discord.

We'll take the time to help you diagnose your issues in a way that gets your through your roadblock.

The big problem is that the first 80% goes really well for them. Then they want to redefine a few things, update some key functionality and all of a sudden they are burning credits at a crazy rate.

At this point they reach out for help.
