Startups are hard
Building a Startup is Hard. Finding the Right Tech Partner Shouldn't Be
You have the vision, but many traditional agencies just don't understand the struggle of early stage start ups. They are experts in serving enterprise companies only. But for you, they create more problems than they solve.
- They Deliver Code, Not Customers
Many agencies build exactly what you ask for, technically. But they don't take ownership of whether that software actually resonates with your target users or helps you acquire your first paying customers. They check the box on features, not on business results.
- Ignoring the "Why" Behind the "What"
They operate in silos, delivering designs or code without deeply integrating with the crucial customer discovery and validation process. This leaves you hoping the pieces fit together and actually solve a real user need, rather than ensuring it from the start.
- Risk of Expensive, Useless Software
Their focus is often on fulfilling the project scope you defined, regardless of whether market feedback suggests a pivot is needed. You risk overpaying for a perfectly built product that your target market simply doesn't want or need, setting your startup back significantly.
- Lack of True Partnership
They act as order-takers, not strategic allies. They aren't invested in challenging your assumptions, pushing for user validation, or sharing the goal of ensuring the final product achieves traction. Their job is done when the code is shipped, even if it fails in the market.
