DEX is a presentation tool built by Stefan Endres and his design agency International Magic as an alternative to PowerPoint and Keynote. Launched in June 2024 after years of conceptualization, it reached $500 MRR and 1,000 early adopters by positioning itself specifically for creatives and designers. Stefan leveraged his design expertise to build a custom UI framework, achieving a polished product in weeks, and validated his audience through survey feedback from early adopters.
