The Death of the Bloated SaaS Organization
The era of raising $5M seed rounds to employ 15 engineers building a glorified CRUD wrapper is officially over. Today, a solo engineer armed with modern primitives—Supabase, Next.js or Vite, Stripe/Razorpay, and frontier LLMs—can build, launch, and scale software products that previously required an entire enterprise engineering division.
High-Density Value Proposition vs Feature Soup
Successful bootstrapped software products do not compete on feature count. They compete on solving one acutely painful problem with surgical precision. When an indie tool saves a target customer 4 hours every Tuesday, charging $49/month is not an obstacle—it is an instantaneous purchasing decision.
