Your stack isn’t the problem. But your timing might be.

This is the very first episode of a podcast created in collaboration with Valletta Software Development. It breaks down the #1 architecture trap early-stage SaaS teams fall into, building for scale before they have users. From $4,000/month AI features no one touches, to microservices pitched to impress investors (not serve customers), they’ve seen it all.

You’ll learn:

• Why “future-proofing” can actually kill your momentum
• The six overengineering symptoms to watch for
• What lean, modular architecture actually looks like (hint: it’s not Kubernetes)
• How Acterys saved $150K+ by scaling based on usage, not vibes
• The MVP tech stack that’ll carry you to 50K MAUs without rework

If you’re post-seed and quietly wondering if your infrastructure is holding you back, this episode is for you!

Quick wins inside:

• MVP stack cheat sheet
• Modular monolith strategy
• Scaling thresholds that stop tech sprawl

Stop building castles in the cloud. Start shipping what matters.

Get smarter, not busier.
Each episode will break down the traps, tools, and tactics that actually move early-stage SaaS forward. No hype, just frameworks that work.
