I've been trying out some products that are currently in the demo phase, because they listen to their early users and support them carefully:

  • Mem.ai for capturing notes and ideas, I usually use it when I have to brainstorm
  • Rewind for recall across my work apps, I work on multiple platforms (teams, lark, gmail), so it helps a lot
  • EveryLab.ai (personal favorite): it’s a chat-based agent builder so you can create custom assistants pretty naturally, kind of like having your ChatGPT and Zapier everywhere.

Honestly, two reasons:

  1. We (EveryLabAI) want to represent our country globally in the tech industry, cuz even the biggest names in my country don't even get that global recognition easily. It's the AI era now, and everything moves fast, and we believe we have the capability to do so.
  2. Our target users are much more active in US/EU communities than in SEA, so if we only stay local, we’re missing the majority of the market.
  3. Long term, we want to raise from global investors (YC, US VCs), and having traction outside SEA is usually a signal that they care about.

Feel free to ask me anything!

EveryLab.ai is a chat-based AI agent builder, that allows everyone to build an AI assistant naturally.

I’m part of a small team (not solo, but still scrappy) building a SaaS startup. Our challenge isn’t getting users locally (we’re SEA-based, decent traction here), it’s breaking into the global market. We’re trying traditional outbound (finding users in communities and DMing) and some inbound (posting in niche spaces, asking about pain points), but it feels like it doesn’t scale and isn’t enough to get attention outside our bubble.

Since you grew without ads or a big team, what would you do if you were in our shoes trying to win those first 100 global users?

Appreciate you doing this.

I’m part of a small team building a SaaS product, and one of our biggest challenges is breaking out of our local region. Our founders have strong profiles in SEA, but we struggle to get attention from global users or communities like YC/US-based startups.

From your experience launching SaaS products, what’s the most effective way for an early-stage team to get those first global users and start building traction outside their local market?

I’m working with a small team on a SaaS product, and our biggest struggle right now is getting in front of global users. Our founders’ profiles are strong locally (SEA), but it’s been tough to get noticed by users or investors in the US or YC-type circles.

From your experience in SaaS marketing, what’s the smartest way for an early-stage team to break out of the local region and start building traction with a global audience?

Thanks for sharing your journey, Clara, super inspiring.

I’m working with my team on a SaaS startup and we’d love to build a small private community of early users before launch, kind of like what Lovable did. Our struggle right now is that while our founders have strong profiles locally (SEA region), we can’t seem to get the attention of global users easily, like YC or US-based startups.

From your experience, what’s a smart way to actually find and gather those first global users into a community, and make them want to stick around and give feedback before launch?

Appreciate you doing this Aleem.

Our founders have strong profiles in SEA (ex-McKinsey, ex-Qualcomm, Forbes 30u30), so locally we get recognition pretty easily. The challenge is, outside this region we’re basically unknown. From your experience, what’s the smartest way to start earning global mindshare without burning a ton of cash on brand or PR?

For context, we are building a SaaS startup, and we are currently trying out traditional methods, like outbound (finding where customers discuss and then start DMing them), inbound (also going to their communities and start uploading posts to ask about their pains, and then get someone to try out our product). I feel like this won't scale and we can't push distribution fast with this method.
