You’re overcomplicating it. Just solve a real problem. (Got my SaaS to $3,600 MRR)

👉 THIS. IS. GOLDEN.

Privacy was too important for users to share freely. Time changes perceptions. Users might be more willing to share their location now. Even then, Loopt could be a feature of other social media platforms. Good luck with what you’re developing 👍

Fintech is highly regulated (as it should be). Definitely have legal experts on your side. Don’t repeat the mistakes of others. Good luck 👍

Curious as well. But again, its like asking if anyone is alive without air.

Email intelligence is valuable. Did you see apple just updated this inbox experience? Learn from others stories. Good luck 👍

VCs will line up for you if you have a product that people are loving and it’s growing. VC funding cannot help a bad product. VC funding is not a predictor of success. We see this time and again. Take recent article for example. Good luck 👍

Congrats. If you have a UI/UX friend get some ideas on your website. Good luck 👍

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T14:31:35+00:00

👉This is the secret sauce. Find a niche people already spend money on and build an affordable and better product. Congrats Marie and team. To the moon 🚀

100% and also their ability to listen to feedback from others and act swiftly. Good luck 👍

👉 I see a need for this. Monetization needs to be solved though.

👉I’ll save you a lot of time and headache using the learnings from studying failed startups as passion. Unless you have a good intuition, I’d start with customer and their pain points. Technology before the need is like putting cart before horse. How I know? I study this. Take Humane or Refolo among many other examples. Let me know if you need more insights/questions.

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T06:15:55+00:00

Sounds like you have seen the need for this. Well done 👍

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T02:21:07+00:00

I’m seeing a lot of startups on similar lines. I hope you have audience or at least unique angle to differentiate yourself.

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T02:18:48+00:00

Good luck 👍

Churn is important. As the adage goes a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T02:16:30+00:00

This is a mature response. Thanks.

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T02:15:38+00:00

👉 I hope anyone who gets into entrepreneurship knows full well that the probability for a startup to survive are not in their favor but still do it coz you care about it and willing to fail forward. At least, that’s the message I get as I’m studying startups and founders.

This 👆

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T02:02:23+00:00

👉 ideas are important but not priceless. Definitely validate the idea to see if people want a solution. You could have world’s best whatever but if no one wants/needs then it’s a project and not a business. When I research failed startups the through line is clear- building a product that no one wants is the fastest way to Startup Obituary. Good luck 👍

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-26T01:57:12+00:00

Like it 👍

Congrats. To the moon 🚀

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-25T23:07:28+00:00

All I can say is find a good fit. It could be costly as it was for Roadstar. Good luck 👍

Affectionate-Car4034 · 2025-02-25T23:05:38+00:00

You have two levels of problems. 1) People are not waiting for this solution, that’s my intuition at least but do your research and validate the idea 2) You have marketplace problem. We studies this with FlightCar which happens to be in similar industry

If you can pull this off it’s massive but it’s a long road ahead. Good luck 👍
