It depends on the product. Most of my experience is in B2B, for that I recommend building a clickable prototype in Figma or another tool. If you can get 3 customers to sign contracts based on that, the idea has potential.

You want to outsource so you can focus on building your product instead of integrations which are costly to build and maintain. Also it’s not easy to come up with these universal mappings, why reinvent the wheel? It’s unlikely that your int

I don’t think you can really blame Netflix for the change in content over time. In the beginning nobody understood how big streaming would be so Netflix could license whatever for cheap. They were successful and everybody said “oh shit we n

What is there to plan? If you signed a 10 year lease in 2019, it is what it is.

Free credits for these type of products tend to be through startup programs that require venture funding.

It’s doable. The challenge typically isn’t in the actually building though, it’s in finding people willing to pay. I recommend trying to acquire customers with mock-ups / clickable prototypes. If you can get 3 or so customers to sign c
