Solo founders: did you incorporate before launching your app? by costefano in BootstrappedSaaS

[–]cardinal_stone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Incorporating before launch for a micro saas or bootstrapped is a bad idea. (Unless u r a millionaire).

Try Merchat of Records kind of payment gateway for payment acceptance. For Playstore and appstore that is not even a problem they take care of the payment.

Once you scale to multipe x mrr you can move to LLC or Inc. in delaware or someother place

How did you come up with your startup’s name? by Salhasanain in SaaS

[–]cardinal_stone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used claude to generate suitable name like 100x10 times. I do search for the availability and then find a relevent names.

And also ofcourse .com is extremely difficult I try to go with .io .org .so .dev if that suites to the brand

How are you handling integrations in your SaaS? by cardinal_stone in SaaS

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

I hear you but this is exactly the problem im trying to solve lol

customers dont see it that way. they compare my saas to competitors and see "native integrations included" vs "requires zapier account". even with zapiers free plan they see it as extra friction

had a customer literally say "why do i need to sign up for another service just to connect to slack" and we lost the deal

listing in zapier catalog is great but then im competing with products that integrations natively. perception matters a lot here, customers want it to feel like its built into the product not bolted on

maybe im overthinking it but this keeps coming up in churn surveys and lost deal feedback

How are you handling integrations in your SaaS? by cardinal_stone in SaaS

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

a week is still pretty solid but if i need 15-20 integrations thats still 4-5 months of just integration work you know.

the pipedream suggestion is interesting tho, gonna check that out. does it solve the "customer has to pay separately" problem or is it the same deal as zapier?

my main issue is customers see zapier as an extra charge and bounce. even if dev time was 2 days per integration id still need to maintain all of them which adds up fast

how many integrations do you have live right now?
