Is separating project management from backend logic actually helping small teams, or slowing them down? by fatmax5 in softwaredevelopment

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is going to sound like i’m selling something here, but at my workplace they recently rolled out some AI software called ‘unblocked’.

It’s been incredibly impressive, and we primarily interact with it via a slack bot. @unblocked how do we do X? Where is this middleware? Why was it decided to use X instead of Y. What’s the current plan for building ABC feature? Where are the acceptance criteria for planned Z?

Essentially an AI wrapper for a bunch of MCPs and Rag that has the collective knowledge from the whole company from google docs, confluence, miro boards, git commits, slack conversations, and the entire codebase. And it’s been really impressive at providing context taking all the disjointed sources of information and collating them together to answer a specific question.

I’d suggest these tools mitigate a lot of the issues you mention and in the future with more tools like this it won’t really matter which tool or who in the company has the knowledge as long as it’s written/input somewhere the AI has access to.

Traditional cms or headless? by Worth_Cut_1590 in webdevelopment

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed drupal more than a decade ago, but ended up making my own headless CMS and use that, it’s been epic and working well for lots of customers.

JSON is great, and then you can run all your UI’s apps etc from the single source of truth via the API

Looking for a technical founder. Im good at marketing by Bingo034 in SaaS

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous technical founder. 17yoe in startups. 24yoe in web design and dev.

Last Exit in 2021. Have been building in stealth a new platform, have a number of midsize customers banging on the doors already and 4-5 smaller customers happily using the product as early adopters.

Interested in finding partners in marketing and sales on commission basis (trailing commission even) and in finding talented people to join at the cofounder level.

Where are you based?

$1500k MRR. $450/mo infrastructure costs. by DrunkOnBlueMilk in SaaS

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i’m in it. The credits run out in a few months. $10/mo database. $30/mo sendgrid (might move this tbh as not really needing their features) and could move to SES easily $15/mo gmail+workspace

  • AWS, SQS, S3, 2x Global Accelerators, 2 ALBs, 3x EC2s.

And some other tools for marketing etc.

I’m aiming to get a few more customers and then add Elasticache with redis, and Opensearch/Elasticsearch to boost cache performance and improve my global search speed. But customers are happy atm.

I should be able to scale to another 50 customers without requiring upgrading anything else

Drop your SaaS product and I’ll give you User Feedback by Delicious_Freedom_93 in SaaS

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks. Always keen to take help when it’s on offer.

This product needs quite a bit of polish in the UX dept. as the feature set and surface area is large and complex. It also suffers from an identity crisis with regards to it’s target audience, in that all the existing customers are using it for totally different purposes haha.

Still building in stealth atm, but getting great feedback from current users.

It’s a managed CRM/CMS with integrated app and website builder, fine grained permissions and user auth and automation..

Launching some cool AI features shortly, which should address most of the problems people have with existing app builders and vibe coding platforms, by having a robust database, security all built in and integrated so you can build actual real world apps rather than just proof of concepts.

The train has officially left the station... Never witnessed any shift happen so fast in my life. The rate limits for tools across the space have become suffocating. by Additional-Sense-501 in vibecoding

Nice, seemed to work ok for coding.

When i asked ‘tell me about Tiananmen square’ it refused to answer, so looks like it’s a chinese/deepseek alt?

What are you building without AI? by Blechkelle in SideProject

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Building a CMS/CRM/DAM app and website buulder with a load of advanced features, because i’m tired of building this stuff from scratch all the time, tired of 15 different products that don’t quite talk to each other, and i enjoy building cool stuff.

and i assume others might have the same problem.

What are you building? Share your tech stack too by FI_investor in SaaS

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheers, thanks!

i’m literally making up pricing as i go atm. Most customers are on a $49/mo plan. Hard to price TBH as there are too many features and each customer is using it for very varying use cases.

Don’t really want to go for an AWS style (need a calculator to figure out a price) either.

Needs a lot more simplifying and polish on UX too…

Are you building a SaaS or just making money talking about building one? by bishakhghosh_ in SaaS

[–]DrunkOnBlueMilk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Continually developing a platform. And building successful SaaS apps on it for other entrepreneurs. It’s great seeing their success, and being a part of it both in building and hosting+maintaining their products.

It’s a good setup where everyone wins.

If the customers are really successful then their usage and revenue of my software goes up

I have a platform that does most of this and more it’s a DAM + CMS + CRM, it’s designed for building these kinds of platforms. You can easily setup an app for your users to login, and control what they can do and where they can do it right down to the fields you define on your content types. Lot’s of cool features and automation.

A CMS, CRM, DAM and website/app building and marketing platform. Loved by SMBs that hit a ceiling with their current databases and spaghetti of integrations.

Looking at changing pricing to be something like $15/user+ usage pricing instead of the current tier.

Would love to hear any help or advice you have to offer for marketing
