Do VCs care or even know about tech stack a startup uses/intends to use?
AI and ML is one thing - it can mean a product that couldn't exist without it. There's nothing about MERN vs PHP that indicates that though.
- mst 5y agoI remember quite some years (somewhere between a decade and a decade and a half) ago having to do some truly horrific things to make things work on AWS that would've been trivial and far cheaper at the time if we'd just bought a decent server and stuck it in a colo somewhere - specifically because my customer's investors were all-in on AWS as the only possible way to do things. I'd note that today putting that workload on AWS would probably be a pretty pleasant experience - but yeah, sometimes investors absolutely -do- care in ways that you'd really rather they didn't and you just have to suck it up.
