Founder of windmill.dev, the open-source alternative mentioned at the end. This market is tough, our customers are both very demanding and hard on price. We are doing very well because we kept the team very small but I cannot imagine the pressure to deliver when having raised 20x what we did.

I love what I'm doing and I feel very fortunate for the opportunity to build a startup in a domain that I cherish, devtools, and have grown to love demanding customers as people that care about our product. But if I wasn't passionate in it and its technical challenges, I think there are easier opportunities out there to make a successful startup and can easily imagine how disappointing this segment is with the track records they had as founders.
