I spent the last 5 years building a business operating system by myself. Looking for honest feedback.
( Full Disclosure, I used AI to arrange all of my points )
I don't come from Silicon Valley.
I owned two computer repair shops years ago. Life happened, and I eventually taught myself to code from scratch. For the last five years I've been building what has turned into a full business operating system for service companies.
Today it includes things like:
* CRM
* Dispatching
* Scheduling
* Estimates & invoices
* POS
* Inventory
* Employee management
* Customer portal
* Technician portal
* Unified inbox
* Marketing automation
* Memberships & recurring billing
* Desktop Mode (a browser workspace that behaves more like an operating system than a traditional CRM)
It's all built by one person.
Not an agency.
Not a venture-backed startup.
Just thousands upon thousands of hours.
We're already serving paying customers and continue to grow every month. Revenue is still early, but the product is real and being used by actual businesses.
I'm at an interesting point.
I'm not actively fundraising because I don't want to give away a huge percentage of the company just to say I raised money.
That said, I'd love to connect with founders or investors who've bootstrapped or invested in B2B SaaS. I'm interested in hearing how you'd evaluate a company like this and what milestones you'd want to see before writing a check.
If nothing else, I'd appreciate honest feedback from people who've built or invested in software businesses.
Always happy to answer technical questions about the architecture or the journey.
