How we almost killed our no-code startup – and what we learned to actually succeed
About
Startups love to talk about success, but here’s the truth—we almost killed our own no-code product. We built fast, launched fast… and ignored everything else. No real validation, no analytics, no clear monetization. The result? A product nobody really needed. This talk is about how we flipped everything upside down—rebuilding from scratch, learning from real users, and turning failure into $2M+ raised. If you’re building a no-code startup, learn from our mistakes before they cost you time, money, and momentum.
