Micro-SaaS
One feature. One audience. One founder. Build a tiny software product that prints recurring revenue.
About
Micro-SaaS businesses solve one narrow problem for one specific audience — and that laser focus is exactly what makes them defensible and profitable. Your AI App Engineer builds the entire product: frontend, backend, database, authentication, billing, and deployment. Your SEO / GEO Manager creates a content engine targeting long-tail keywords that your ideal customer is already searching — 'best tool for X,' 'how to automate Y,' and '[competitor] alternative.' Your Cold Email Outreach Manager reaches out directly to potential customers in your niche with personalized messages that demonstrate the value of your solution. No VC needed. No team needed. Just a product that solves a problem.

Pretty straightforward setup on our side. Does the job without a lot of ceremony. Fine for now.
Does not require constant babysitting. Integration was smoother than expected. Glad we did not overthink the rollout.

Aligned with how we already work. We still check the important stuff ourselves. Does not solve everything, but covers the basics.
No surprises so far — that is a good thing. Keeps context better than our last approach. Good stopgap until we hire more people.
