Built without VC funding, the company achieved profitability from year two through radical cost discipline, maintaining a team under 50 people.

Metabase is an open-source BI tool used by over 70,000 companies with 8-figure ARR.

The company learned that strong product-market fit signals were hidden in self-serve adoption metrics, and that following conventional enterprise sales advice nearly derailed their natural strength in product-led growth.
Salto is an enterprise SaaS platform that has grown to 8-figure ARR by serving hundreds of enterprise customers.

This transformation took them from zero conference meetings to 35 meetings in a single year.
Prodoscore is an employee productivity and attrition prediction platform that overcame initial market skepticism about being surveillance software. Under CEO Sam Naficy, the company found product-market fit by pivoting to employee empowerment messaging, narrowing to 100+ seat enterprises, and discovering staffing as their primary vertical. The platform now serves 150 logos with 135,000 employees.
