People asked me in 2021 if the Shopify App Store was saturated. They thought they couldn't start an app. "Everything has been done!" Since then, I don't know HOW MANY apps launched and literally made millions. Today, I still receive the question, "Is it saturated?"

Shipping fast doesn’t mean shipping messy. At JoulesLabs, we use modular design patterns + strict PR reviews to keep velocity high *and* tech debt low. Fast ≠ fragile. #SaaS #SoftwareEngineering

Great SaaS development is a mix of: 🔹 Fast iteration 🔹 Clean architecture 🔹 Deep business understanding A dev agency that only writes code misses the big picture. We believe in building *with* you, not just *for* you. #SaaSDevelopment #ProductThinking #AgencyLife

Clean UI ≠ good UX. A beautiful UI that confuses users kills conversions. That’s why we prototype flows *before* pushing pixels. Design isn’t how it looks. It’s how it works. #UXDesign #ProductDevelopment

A client’s SaaS product was taking **10+ seconds to load dashboards**. After our rewrite: **under 2s** with full caching and optimized DB queries. Small tweaks. Massive user impact. #DevWins #SaaSPerformance

MVPs still matter. Not because they're cheap, but because they give you **data**. Validate assumptions before scaling solutions. Build lean, learn fast. #MVP #SaaSStartups

If you’re building SaaS, start tracking your numbers early. You don’t need to be a finance expert. Just get a feel for the numbers that show how things are going. I’ve found baremetrics.com/open-startups really helpful, lots of real examples to learn from.

We thought enterprise AI adoption would move fast. It didn’t. Plenty of interest. Some R&D. But most are still in the explore phase. Big orgs move slow for a reason. Scale needs caution.

Showing up every day and surviving long enough to catch the right wave is a real skill now. For most founders, it takes a few mistakes before we really get how the game works.

Even the best-built product won’t matter if no one knows it exists. After launch, marketing is everything and if founders don’t budget for it, that usually decides how the story ends.

Experienced founders test demand first. If it sells before it's built, you're onto something.
