How did you come up with your startup's idea?

the current products in my field doesn't work very well

Very simple! Colleagues asked me to think of a way to create an email several times faster

Knowing that, in the future, most of online interactions will happen between AIs and that these AIs will represent companies, brands, objects and also humans, we wanted to equip the latter with their own AI :)

I was working as a software agency in Japan to help enterprise develop machine learning and software application. I’ve learned about the importance of data analytics and serverless technology. There are actually lots of data sources in enterprise, so it makes it difficult for marketing department to analyze them. When I see chatgpt, all things ware connected. Now I’m working on Morph which combines serverless RDB with LLM. https://www.morphdb.io

Usually my startup ideas are problems I've experienced at other startups I've advised or worked at over the years. That's why I started SupMonster (customer support was always asking developers to remove accidentally unsubscribed customer email addresses from our email sending platforms, and DbSnapper because we were needing a way to create sanitized database snapshots to develop against.

i was baned from the competition platform because my account got stolen and the support didnt unban me, so i am making this platform myself but better

I have not started yet

I faced a problem and couldn't solve it easily and quickly. Then I decided to create a solution.

My previous venture was a livestream shopping platform. When working with e-com shops their main concern was still image content creation. Their second concern was video content creation. They basically gave us their problem which sparked the idea. We designed a tool that helps generate product images out of existing ones and we help our customers with still image content creation at scale.

@sanket_goyal There were two main reasons for starting Corbado. On the one hand side, it was my experience when implementing password-based authentication for another startup as a software engineer, which was a painful process and so many things to bear in mind that I didn't anticipate in the beginning. On the other hand side, I was just annoyed with passwords from a user's perspective and abandoned so many login processes due to passwords. That's made start working on a solution for the password problem.

The idea for my startup came when I was faced with a problem at work and I was looking for programs that could help me with the problem, but ultimately I couldn’t find it and decided to create such a tool and help other similar people.

We built mDash to solve the issues we were experiencing within my own web development agency, actually. We realized that we wasted so much time and money worrying about project scoping and interfacing with our clients when all our developers wanted to do was what they do best: develop. So, we just decided to build our own software that takes care of project scoping and removes the need for constant communication, among many other things. We initially only expected to use it internally, but it worked so well for our agency that we've been scaling it and preparing for an open beta launch so others can use it, too!

No need to really think about it, it was something I needed myself
