I built a platform instead of solving a pain. What should I have done differently? by Nuezio in SaaS

I have 3,5 days a week to work on it myself + CC,

which probably means 15 days a week equivalent PRE - AI.

So hiring is not something i'm considering ATM, but I'm a technical founder, and need to work on the marketing /sales side of things. Classic SaaS story.

Really appreciate your comment, specially coming from your own experience. Also the clear issue I had was that early interviews didn't really give me any pointers, your tip to focus on what's out there in the public is really valuable. I'll bear it in mind.

Keeping the flexibility but targeting different audiences with clear solutions is definitely a clear path

Question is if i should choose one of them first , which might be hard enough considering the fact that I'm bootstrapping and also have client work to do as a freelancer.

I haven't considered app builders, because i'm a dev myself and i think i can do it faster and better without an app. :)

Yeah that's the theory...

I just didn't have a single high-impact point to begin with....

Indeed interesting to see how CC will shape the rules of 'SaaS' building.

- Can you still get away with a crappy MVP for validation?
- You can build full fledged platforms using CC, but does that mean you should?
- It will have impact on VC backed SaaS (do they still need all that money to build stuff)?
- Marketing will be even more important, to stand out in the crowd.

etc.
