Thank you for the advice.
The issue that I'm facing as an engineer is , everything I want to use has already been built, maybe I can come upon with improved versions of them.
- saluki 5y agoIt takes some time to come across the right idea. But it could be something you need that has already been built. Even though it's already in the wild, there might be demand for a new SaaS built for a specific framework or group of developers. Just because someone has already built something similar doesn't mean there is room for one more SaaS. I will say it seems like the majority of the success stories I come across are tools built for developers. So I would focus your attempts at developers. If you can create something to save them time or money, some of them will be willing to pay for it.
- the_parzival 5y agoMaking a Saas for developers is challenging, I will try to come up with some ideas to do the same. Thanks for the advice :)
- aranchelk 5y agoIf look at all the products you like that are already out there, probably few are first of their kind. E.g. React was proceeded (and followed) by numerous JavaScript frameworks. It’s totally fine (perhaps preferable) to improve on an existing idea — build a better mouse trap. What products annoy you? That could be an indication a product isn’t really fulfilling your needs. Are there any software products/services you want that are too complicated and expensive? Maybe build something easier, cheaper, and more niche. If you’re still at a total loss, you might consider partnering with an expert in some area that has a problem you can solve.
