About North‑Star
We're a team of builders, tinkerers, and NJIT alumni helping student entrepreneurs and early-stage startups automate their way to growth.
Our Mission
We believe every student entrepreneur deserves access to the same tools and automation that big companies use. But building custom workflows shouldn't require an engineering team or months of development.
That's why North‑Star exists: to compress the 6–12 months of workflow automation into 6 weeks, at a price that works for bootstrapped founders.
Our Story
Started at NJIT
We met at New Jersey Institute of Technology, where we were all working on startups of our own. Each of us spent weeks manually handling intake forms, scheduling, and follow-ups. We realized: there had to be a better way.
Built for Ourselves First
We started automating our own workflows using Zapier, Airtable, and Google APIs. The time savings were immediate. Other founders noticed. They asked us to build for them. That's when North‑Star was born.
Our Values
🎯 Radical Transparency
No hidden fees. Revenue-share aligned with your success. Monthly metrics you can verify.
⚡ Speed
6-week pilots, not 6-month engagements. Prove ROI fast. Move forward or move on.
🤝 Community
We're building for student entrepreneurs. We give back to NJIT and NY startup scenes.
Our Team
North‑Star is a lean, distributed team with deep roots in web development, automation, and startup culture. We wear many hats, move fast, and care about shipping results—not perfection.
