We are out there - or, how problems of your previous project can be the value prop of your new start up

Hi folks, first of all i am super excited to be part of this community. I had been hesitant to make my first post - now after reading up and seeing the amazing vibe, i am taking a stab.

I am Nikolas and for the past years i have been working in various start ups (in the learning (skilling + upskilling) domain. During this journey, together with a colleague we have been meditating on ways that we could have done things better. He was in the technology area (head of engineering) while i represented operations, customers etc.

The result of these discussions was that we should have been better at:

  1. Being quicker in taking new versions of our software to the market (faster release cycles)
  2. Prepare our app for scale, both technically and operationally (prepare for growth)
  3. Keep a lean and clean code. - not spend so much time building necessary but not value adding features.

These were the foundations and our compass during the past 6 months when we were building our own venture - Apyhub. What we realized is that there WAS a way to empower dev teams and tackle the problems that we faced when trying to build and scale different products. Software utility services is a term we started adopting and this gradually led to the app we just released.

Our focus now is to keep building on this - publish more utility services and establish ourselves as the de facto place for developers looking for ways to build leaner apps.

You can see more info at www.apyhub.com.

excited again to be part of this, more to follow soon.
